Hello everyone,

I'm interested in obtaining a version of TeX for the Atari 1040ST.  However, 
I see that there are a few versions of TeX out there like CTEX and STTEX.

What I would like to know is:

1.  Which is your favorite?

2.  Why is it your favorite?

3.  Does it run on a Monochrome 1040ST with only 1 DSDD drive?

4.  Can you get decent printouts on a dot matrix Epson compatible printer?

5.  What dvi previewer do you use?

6.  Do you have to generate your own fonts?

7.  Which server has the latest versions.

Thanks a lot.  Reply either by Email or posting.  I'm sure there are others
who are interested.

Maurice
