Now copy the files in /usr/local/scitext/defaults in a directory .SciTeXt in your home directory. Every user has to do this, otherwise the program will stop with an error like 'Cannot open Translation-Table. I had to stop the program!'. 5. You can now start scitext by typing 'scitext'. No word on mkfontdir somewhere. > > Have fun, > Amancio > > >From The Desk Of "Christoph P.
