10.1. DBTeXMath

You probably already have almost all the necessary software installed on your system for the DBTeXMath method to work on it, but let's have a look at it anyway:

• Perl: The method is heavily based on some post-processing done by Perl scripts, so Perl is a must. Any modern version should do, so just install the Perl package and the Perl modules of your distribution.

• The three .dsl files (stylesheets) as discussed in Section 4.2. They already contain all necessary changes to process Mathematics, so you will just need to copy them to the aproppriate locations - but you have done that already in Section 4.2.

• TeX, LaTeX (see Section 3.5), dvips and convert (see Section 3.6) are also used heavily, but you already have installed those, didn't you?

So far, you might not have to install anything additional, but the following is definitely new:

• The unescape_math.pl and texmath2pngbmp.pl[1] scripts. Please use the ones provided here and not the original ones, as I have made some changes to them. Copy them somewhere in your system, preferably in /usr/local/bin and make them executable. Adapt the lyxtox to contain the right paths (see Section 7.1.2).

• The awkscr_math awk script in the working directory. Of course, you need awk (Section 3.8) too, but you already needed it in Chapter 8 for the htmlsplit.awk script.
