What this upload does:
Updates dvii to version 0.44. Added an option to suppress display of `physical' pages as well as another option to ignore certain opcodes when computing checksums. Updated manual.
More information on dvii can be found at
http://www.macrotex.net/dvii/dvii.htmlFrom the README file:
dvii is a utility written in C that extracts information from a TeX dvi file and displays it on the command line. Information displayed can include a summary:
File comment (usually the date file was compiled) File size Number of (physical) pages Number of fonts
as well as more detailed information:
Font names for all fonts used List of physical page number/TeX page number pairs List of all specials and the page on which they appear List of all fonts on a per page basis
More information can be found at the dvii home page
http://www.macrotex.net/dvii/dvii.htmlCurrently, there are some pre-compiled executables (DOS, Win 9X/NT, Solaris, OSF1, and Linux) available at the dvii website www.macrotex.net/dvii/dvii.html. If none of these are suitable, you will need to compile the C source. To compile, you need to have a C compiler along with the standard C libraries. For example, if you have the C compile gcc, type
gcc dvii.c -o dvii.exe (assuming DOS/Windows platform) gcc dvii.c -o dvii (assuming Unix platform)
Thanks for the update, I installed it at the location indicated:
