Because certain journals lay down stringent instructions as to when words are or are not capitalized, BibTeX obeys the rules in the .bst file rather than whatever you might specify in the .bib file. However, you *can* force BibTeX to obey your requirements, by enclosing the letter in TeX's usual braces. Therefore you'd write {H}omo {S}apiens. But I hope that your reference to italics in your message is relating to an artefact of BibTeX (in that it decides, depending upon the style file, whether certain fields shall appear in italics, slant, roman, etc)? Because you really ought not to be specifying italics directly (although I conceed you might use \em at a pinch, which would tend to have the same effect).

Hart (pp~6--7) says ``Both parts should be printed in italic, with the generic name given an initial capital''. It therefore seems perfectly reasonable to me that the user _should_ be specifying italics directly.

However when trying to unpack the beta-7 btex package pkunzip gives a number of CRC errors and bad table errors and no FMT files are installed in the btexfmts directory as required. The alternative is to get the FMT files using INITEX386 as I understand but this program isn't included in the overall emtex distribution package.

He eventually managed to create a DVI file but cannot create a postscript file from this to use with our PS40 printer. We use the PSPRINT/dev=PS40/dvi command at this site. Our Tex expert is on long term absence due to illness, and I know very little about TeX/LaTeX. We have had a few other problems creating a postscript file after the DVI file had been created successfully, the usual error being bad precommand . and a reference to a font eg. CIRCLE10.360PK Are we doing something wrong, or is it the case that PS40 printers cannot use some of the fonts?

But the concept is sound.

I try to persuade the dvieps filter to print on a Epson LQ 850 printer, but I cannot figure out what XDPI, YDPI and resolution values to use. Either the characters are too broad, or the line spacing is to big or too small, or the text is cut to the left or the right, but I don't seem to get it right. Has anyone succeded printing on such a beast? What version did you use? What values for XDPI, YDPI and resolution did you use? Besides, I am using dvieps.c version 2.10 [experimental].

I maintain quite a complicated system with a) a BibTeX document database, where each document has a distribution category (eg `Management') b) a BibTeX catalogue of people c) a set of TeX macros expanding \Management to \cite{Bloggs,Jones,Major} This allows me to have a trivial script which I can ask to print address labels for distributing a document, by a) a run of BibTeX on the document database, with a \cite of the document number, which writes the distribution category b) an expansion by TeX of that category to a \cite list c) a BiBTeX run on the addresses to write labels BUT (and its a big BUT), learning to write BibTeX `programs' is not a simple task. But then if you are not happy with Awk or Perl either... My starting point was that I needed BibTeX anyway, to do the right style of bibliographies, so I have learn to use the language. The moral is that the best system is the one you are familiar with, whether its Perl, dBase, BASIC, PL/1, Oracle or Word programming language. They'll all do the job.

I think the general opinion is that while theoretically possible, this is not currently a sensible idea. the recommendation is to run the first part of the web2c process on a Unix machine, and then take the generated C sources over to your PC and compile them there. If you simply want a TeX etc for DOS, its difficult to see why this would be very useful, given the free availability of the very fine emTeX collection. Or maybe I misinterpet you, and you literally mean the source of web2c itself. Its bits of C and yacc, as I recall, and can be found in the generic Unix source, available from any TeX archive. eg on uk.ac.tex, in [tex-archive.src.unix-archives]web2c* Sebastian Rahtz ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Feb 1993 10:32:04 +0000 From: ee01th@uk.ac.surrey.ee Subject: Dramatic Scripts in LaTeX I wish to use LaTeX for Dramatic Scripts, so I get the name of each character in bold and everything they say aligned in the following manner: Bill: Here we go round the Mulberry bush, the Mulberry bush The Mulberry Bush Ben: On a cold and Frosty Morning. ie each character's text lines up in the same place, no matter how long the names are.
