You can install the package in several different places.
|
||||
If you want it to be available for all users on your system, then you should
|
||||
install it in your `local' TeX tree; if you want (or need) it to be available
|
||||
just for you, then you can install it in your own `user' TeX tree.
|
||||
On *nix systems (Linux, OSX, etc), you have several choices.
|
||||
If you want the new package to be available for all users on your system,
|
||||
then you should install it in your `local' TeX tree; if you want (or need)
|
||||
it to be available just for you, then you can install it in your own `user'
|
||||
TeX tree.
|
||||
Where these trees should be created, if they do not already exist, depends
|
||||
upon the details of your system.
|
||||
To find out where they are, look in the file

It probably does.
|

In general, we'd recommend installing in the user tree unless you have reason
|
||||
not to do so.
|
||||
One advantage to this is that your user tree is less likely to be over-written
|
||||
or deleted when you upgrade, and it will typically be backed up together
|
||||
with everything else when you backup your home directory (which, of course,
|
||||
you do on a regular basis).

Once your tree is properly set up, you can install the package into an appropria
|
||||
te location.
|
||||
If you are lucky, your package will have been provided as a so-called `TDS'
|
||||
(TeX Directory Structure) zip file.
|
||||
To install it, you want to unzip it from the top of your tree.
|
||||
So, for example, you can copy the file
|
||||
\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
\begin_layout Plain Layout
|

|

\end_layout
|
||||
|
||||
\end_inset
|
||||
|
||||
and then, from inside that directory, just run:

||||
\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code

||||

|
||||
|
||||
\begin_layout Plain Layout
|
||||
unzip newpkg.zip
|
||||
\end_layout
|
||||
|
||||
\end_inset
|
||||
|
||||
.
|
||||
This will extract the needed files and copy them where they need to be.
|
||||
\begin_inset Newline newline
|
||||
\end_inset
|
||||
|
||||
If you do not have a TDS file, then you have to do this manually.
|
||||
For example, you might install the FoilTeX files into
|
||||
On Windows, change to the folder where LaTeX is installed and then change
|
||||
to the subfoler

Why there? The CTAN download directories are themselves organized much

install your own files.
