TextFile

READ.ME  
This is a documentation file to accompany the AMS-TeX 2.0 distribution.

Copy all of the files in this directory and its subdirectory
(named `doc') into a corresponding directory tree on your system.
ALSO, copy all of the .tfm files for AMSFonts 2.0 from the tfm-files
subdirectory of the ams directory on this archive. Even if you do not
use AMSFonts 2.0, you will need the .tfm files to use amsppt.sty and 
to TeX the accompanying documentation for AMS-TeX.

The other files in this directory (amsppt.sty, amssym.tex, and amstex.tex)
should be copied into the directory on your system where your implementation 
of TeX looks for input files. 

The .tfm files from the tfm-files directory of the ams subdirectory on this
archive should be copied into the directory on your system where your
implementation of TeX looks for .tfm files.

The `doc' subdirectory contains three files:
amsguide.tex -  The TeX source code for the AMS-TeX User's Guide.
                Once you have completed the installation of AMS-TeX 2.0,
                run this file through TeX using AMS-TeX 2.0. The output
                will be a complete guide to using AMS-TeX 2.0.
joyerr.tex  -   The TeX source code for a document listing errata to
                The Joy of TeX prior to AMS-TeX 2.0. It also should be
                run through TeX using AMS-TeX 2.0.
amsppt.doc  -   Technical documentation for amsppt.sty.



INSTALLING AMS-TeX 2.0 ON YOUR SYSTEM

1.  As described above, copy  amsppt.sty, amssym.tex, and amstex.tex into 
the  directory where your implementation of TeX looks for input files, and 
copy all of the .tfm files for AMSFonts 2.0 into the directory where your 
implementation of TeX look for .tfm files. Then, create a file called 
`amsplain.tex' with the following three lines:

                \input plain
                \input amstex
                \dump

Run this file through INITEX (the version of TeX which has no format
preloaded, distributed with your implementation of TeX). It will produce
a format file which will function as a pre-loaded version of AMS-TeX.
Place this format file in the directory where your implementation of TeX 
looks for format files, and you are ready to use AMS-TeX 2.0.

We recommend that, as a first test of your installation, you run the file
amsguide.tex through TeX, and print out the output. This will provide further
information about using AMS-TeX.
