The ESRELATION package ====================== by Byron Cook, Tauba Auerbach, David Reinfurt About ----- The program termination problem, also known at the uniform halting problem, can be defined as: *Using a finite amount of time: determine whether a given program will always finish running or could possibly execute forever.* The Metafont programming and LaTeX package writing and TeX macro programming (*especially the TeX macro programming*) required to produce these symbols looked like it might, itself, never end. It took more than a year of work in fits and starts to understand how the jalopy of bits and pieces go together to make a font work with LaTeX. [The Comprehensive LaTeXe Symbol List](http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/info/symbols/comprehensive/ "CTAN") does not currently include this set, but on completion all of these files will be ready to upload in the correct formats for inclusion. These are implemented as a standard TeX math symbol font, implemented with custom Metafont sources, rendered on-the-fly as needed by LaTeX. Also provided in this package is a PostScript Type-1 version of the font. Symbols are accessed through macros defined in this package. Installation ------------ + run latex on esrelation.ins to generate sty, mf, fd files > $ latex esrelation.ins + run latex (or pdflatex) on esrelation.dtx to generate documentation (including detailed installation instructions) > $ pdflatex esrelation.dtx + determine the location of your local TeX tree by running > $ kpsewhich --var-val TEXMFLOCAL (this value will henceforth be referred to as ‘TEXMFLOCAL’) + install esrelation.sty and uesrelation.fd in > TEXMFLOCAL/tex/latex/esrelation + install esrelation.mf and esrelation10.mf in > TEXMFLOCAL/fonts/source/public/esrelation + install esrelation10.pfb in > TEXMFLOCAL/fonts/type1/public/esrelation + install esrelation.map in > TEXMFLOCAL/fonts/map/dvips/esrelation **NB**: all created directories should be set to mode 755 and all of the above files should be set to mode 644. + update LaTeX font database > $ sudo -H mktexlsr + update TeX font map > $ sudo -H updmap-sys --enable Map=esrelation.map + udpate the font database again > $ sudo -H mktexlsr Resources --------- Up-to-date source code is hosted on [GitHub](https://github.com/reinfurt/ESRELATION).
