[4] Which versions of the FAQ are available?
Besides the text file fweb-faq, the FAQ is available
as a Texinfo, a PostScript, an Info or a DVI file.*
All these can be generated from the Texinfo source file
fweb-faq.texi.
The preprocessed DVI and PostScript files are not included anymore.
See the simple makefile which accompanies the fweb-faq distribution
for detailed information on how to process the Texinfo source.
Short instructions are given in the file README.fweb-faq.
If you do not know anything about Texinfo, don't worry:
With the texinfo.tex macro package, the principal
source file fweb-faq.texi can be TeXed (1)
like any ordinary TeX file at the expense of not getting an index --
try it!
If you would like to start with Texinfo, retrieve its latest version from
`prep.ai.mit.edu' in directory pub/gnu
(see Question 6). If you like the GNU project
and what it produces, please order a tape if you can, since tape orders
are the FSF's (Free Software Foundation main source of funds to
pay programmers and tech writers. For ordering info, send mail to
`gnu@prep.ai.mit.edu', or contact the FSF:
