I was getting Tex capacity exceeded, sorry [main memory size 1000000] error, so had to increase main_memory in /usr/local/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf main_memory = 7000000 % words of inimemory available; also applies to inimf&mp This works fine, but this file will be overwritten if I update/reinstall print/teTeX-base. I was trying to make a local copy instead: TZAV> cat $HOME/.texmf-var/web2c/texmf.cnf % refer to /usr/local/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf, % installed by teTeX-base-3.0_23: print/teTeX-base % for details main_memory = 7000000 % words of inimemory available; also applies to inimf&mp TZAV> but this doesn't help.
