How to use the stand alone version of eltex 0. You must have gnu emacs (and the `cl' package that comes with it) 1. Download the file "eltex.standalone.elc" and put it in a place of your choice. (Its name can be changed, if you wish, to anything else ending in ".elc") (The next two steps are done within emacs) 2. Load the file "eltex.standalone.elc" into emacs (you can do this using the command `load-file') 3. Go into the buffer where you are editing your manuscript and issue the command `eltex-do' This should produce a file called "tmp.tex" residing in the same directory as your manuscript. This is a normal .tex file with the equations and references numbered, and symbols provided for the footnotes. 4. The preceding step will have suspended emacs, so you are now back at the command line. Process the file tmp.tex as you would any tex file. For further explanations, see the documentation for the command `eltex-do' and for the other eltex commands, especially `eltex-number-eqs' and `eltex-number-refs' (You can access such documentation from within emacs by using the command `describe-function') In addition to the primary command `eltex-do', the following commands are available as editing aids: ref equation footnote eltex-list-refs eltex-list-eqs
