I'm sorry that I wasn't clearer on what was available from Kellerman
and Smith. For $100 they provide a tape of TeX and TeX related tools
for VMS systems and a TeXbook. Included in the tape:

	TeX
	METAFONT
	Latex and Bibtex, fonts for these, style macros, etc.
	tangle and weave
	programs to manipulate fonts in various formats
	amstex documentation macros
	screen previewer
	LN03 driver
	METAFONT sources for Computer Modern fonts.
	fonts for Canon LBP-10 print engine (240 dpi printers)
	Canon LBP-CX fonts (300 dpi black writing printers)
	Xerox XP-24 fonts (300 dpi white writing printers)

There are other things that I don't remember that are also included on
this tape. All of the programs come with sources and documentation.

Send check, money order, or purchase order (no cash or stamps, please)
to:

Sorry to sound so much like a commercial, but I received a lot of
inquiries from my posting. You can also get this stuff from Maria
Code, but Kellerman and Smith's distribution is easier to use and
install.

I rebuilt the fonts for the LN03 starting with the METAFONT
descriptions, just to see what was involved. Generating the complete
fonts (up to magstep6) took over 3 days of CPU time on a VAX-11/785.
