Hi,
I just upgrade my system to Mandriva 2005LE which ships tetex 3.0.
As I am used to, I ran texconfig to set up my system. In addition to default modes for printing, I usually add babel to plain tex with 4 languages: english, french, german and italian.
In particular, when editing the formats file, I changed (as suggested)
tex tex language.dat -translate-file=cp227.tcx bplain.ini
and in the hyphenation file for tex the only not commented lines are:
--------------------------
american ushyph1.tex =USenglish
british. =english
french frhyph.tex =patois
german dehypht.tex =austrian
italian ithyph.tex
nohyphenation zerohyph.tex
---------------------------
Usually, after having done this, everything worked fine. This time, I can't get any trace of babel in tex:
----- [10:01:48 ~]$ tex This is TeX, Version 3.141592 (Web2C 7.5.4) **\bye No pages of output. Transcript written on texput.log. ------------
I also made some test with my tex files.
Nevertheless, when I changed the format, the log displayed --- 14 hyphenation exceptions Hyphenation trie of length 16225 has 511 ops out of 35111 35 for language 3 207 for language 2 88 for language 1 181 for language 0 No pages of output. Transcript written on tex.log. fmtutil: /root/.texmf-var/web2c/tex.fmt installed. ---
So it seems that my languages have been loaded correctly.
Can anybody please help me?
Best regards
