`XyMTeX' is a macro package for drawing chemical structural formulas.
(1) Setting up
This package has been frozen with LHA. Let the frozen package
(xymtex2.lzh) be placed in the b: directory. To melt the frozen package
in the a:\tex directory, please input the following statement in the
command line of your display.
a:\tex>lha x b:\xymtex2
Thereby, the directory <\xymtex> is automatically created as the
subdirectory of the a:\tex directory; and the following hierarchy of
directories and files is generated.
a---\tex---\xymtex --- hetaromh.sty, hetarom.sty, ccycle.sty,
| | | chemstr.sty, carom.sty, lowcycl.sty, aliphat.sty,
| hcycle.sty, locant.sty, polymers.sty, chemist.sty
| methylen.sty, fusering.sty
|
| (dtx files)
|
|--\drvdvi---drv files, dvi files
|
|--\doc200--- xymtx200.tex, xymtx200.dvi,
| xymyl.tex, xymadd.tex
| (other files for the document preparation)
|
|---xymtex2.doc (this document)
|
|---xymtex2.jpn (on-line document in Japanes)
|
|---readme2.doc (notes in English)
|
|---readme2.jpn (notes in Japanese)
The package (sty) files in the \xymtex directory contains the macro
codes of XymTeX commands. The specification of XyMTeX commands and
examples of using these commands are included in the xymtex.dvi file of
the \doc directory.
The xymtx200.dvi file is a dvi file that is a manual for utilizing
XyMTeX (about 100 pages). The processed dvi file can be obtained in the same
directory of this distribution. It can be printed with an appropriate
printer driver (lips3dvi, dviprt, or others) and can be displayed with an
appropriate previewer (dviout, etc.).
The xymtx200.tex is the main file of the manuscript for creating the
xymtx200.dvi. The other tex files in the \doc200 directory are input files
which are read by the main file.
(2) Designating a serach path
In order to set a search path for using XyMTeX, please add the directory
name to the TEXINPUTS line in \texmf.cnf, which is stored in the
\tex\texmf\web2c directory (for a standard distribution of LaTeX2e).
For example, you add
platex2e_inputs = .;$TEXMF/tex/platex2e//;$TEXMF/tex/latex2e//;
$TEXMF/tex//;a:/tex/inputs//;
a:/tex/chem//;a:/tex/xymtex//;a:/tex/opsty//
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ <---- to be added
(3) Writing your manuscript
Each command of XyMTeX can be used if you add the name of the
corresponding style file to the option list at the top of your
manuscript file, e.g.
\documentclass
\usepackage
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
where the underlined names are XyMTeX package files containing your
requisite commands. If all of the XyMTeX commands are required,
the short-cut declaration
\documentclass
\usepackage
can be used for simplicity.
(4) Running LaTeX2e or pLaTeX2e
You should use XyMTeX commands within LaTeX.
