To help compile, view and print documentation in TeXinfo form :

I have put version 2.2 of AsTeX distribution for PC on
ftp.univ-orleans.fr, directory /pub/tex/PC/AsTeX.
It works under DOS, OS/2, Windows 3.x and Windows 95.
Installation and configuration is fully automatized. Menus and
online help are available in French and English (warning messages
only in French, up to now). Language is chosen at installation
time.

Installation option "View/Prn" allows to install all that is
required to view and print dvi documents, and all required files
can be downloaded from directory AsTeX/Install/A_View_Prn.

Installation option "Minimal" allows to install all that is
required to compile TeXinfo documents and view/print them.

It contains also support for TeXinfo documents in French or other
European languages with accented letters. TeXinfo files with 8
bits characters (for example translation of docs) can now be
processed.

The file README in directory AsTeX/Readme (French version: ALIRE)
provides more information on the contents of the distribution.

The files ftp.en and quickins.en (French version : ftp.fr,
quickins.fr) provide more information on downloading and
installing the distribution. The files idx_base.en and
idx_cplm.en (idx_base.fr and idx_cplm.fr in French) provide an
index of files with a short description of their contents.

Comments and criticisms are very welcome.
