Babel install guide for the Mac with OzTeX 2.1
(Originally provided by Jan Geenen, <geenenjw@knoware.nl> for OzTeX 1.9;
updated for 2.1 by Giuseppe P. Cavarretta, <gc@gea.geo.uniroma1.it>)
Filedate: january 15, 1997
1. To create a workable babel package, first create a folder named Babel
and put it in the TeX-inputs folder; in this new folder you must
download from a CTAN site the following files:
a. babel.dtx
b. babel.ins
c. language.dat
d. language.dtx For every language you will hyphenate. ie. dutch.dtx
e. hyphenation files. Again for every language you will hyphenate.
ie. nehyph2.tex.
f. bbidxglo.dtx
g. documentation files. 00readme, install.txt, tb-article.tex,
manifest.txt
2. Check your files if they obey the mac-conventions for end of line.
If not then save as... with the option LF Macintosh.
3. Open the file language.dat and for every language that you will
hyphenate make an entrance ie. dutch nehyph2.tex %nederlands.
Put the file nehyph.tex (and/or whateverhyph.tex) in the folder Plain.
4. TeX the file babel.ins. A lot of files will be generated !
Eventually, delete those related to languages that you think you
will never use (never say never !).
5. The goal is to generate a new latex-format file. To gain some
experience in generating such a format file use only one
hyphenation by disableing the others by putting in front of every
line a %-sign in the file language.dat.
6. Disable the file hyphen.ltx by a %-sign in front of the filename.
:TeX-inputs:LaTeX:hyphen.ltx.
(LaTeX will search for an other. cfg file)
7. Choose in the TeX menu LaTeX
8. Choose in the TeX-menu INITeX and after the two ** type
latex.ltx and push the <return> button.
Eventually edit the new format file from latex.fmt to LaTeX.fmt;
save the new format file.
9. Start using babel.
a. Put the command \usepackage[language]{babel} in the
preamble of your production file product.tex
b. TeX product.tex
Good luck!
