   txt-old.sty  - Older version of txt.sty that generates ragged-right
                  output, but does not require doc.tfm

Download the contents of this package in one zip archive (43.4k).

txt – Output documents via terminals, line printers, etc

The package provides the means to prepare a DVI file for approximately laid-out monospace font text output. This output could then be converted to text using (for example) dvi2tty and then submitted to a line printer.

The package is incomplete (it relies on a font ‘doc’ which it refers to as a ‘pseudo-font’ but nowhere explains where it comes from). Furthermore, it was written for obsolete 2.09 (though it runs, modulo the absence of the font) under current .
