There's also supposed to be a TeX for the Amiga under DOS from n^2
Computer Consultants (and if anyone can provide a phone number for
them I'd appreciate it! The snail-mail address doesn't seem to work)
You can get a TeX subset called small-tex for CP/M-80 from the C
Users' Group.  There's an IBM-PC port of small-tex that doesn't
require a hard disk.  Not sure how to get that.
