TeX Live provides a comprehensive, cross-platform TeX system. It includes all the major TeX-related programs, macro packages, and fonts that are free software, including support for many languages around the world. For more information, see http://www.tug.org/texlive/ There have been major changes to LuaTeX since TeX Live 2015. See http://www.tug.org/texlive/doc/texlive-en/texlive-en.html#news for details, as well as for a list of other (minor) changes. The TeX Live executables and supporting libraries are contained in the following Cygwin packages: * texlive-20160520-1 * libkpathsea6-20160520-1 * libkpathsea-devel-20160520-1 libkpathsea is a TeX file and path search library. * libptexenc1-20160520-1 * libptexenc-devel-20160520-1 libptexenc is a TeX Unicode encoding library. * libsync1-20160520-1 * libsync-devel-20160520-1 libsync is a TeX source/output synchronization library. * libtexlua52_5-20160520-1 * libtexlua52-devel-20160520-1 libtexlua52 is a TeX lua scripting library. * libtexluajit2-20160520-1 (x86 only) * libtexluajit-devel-20160520-1 (x86 only) libtexluajit is a TeX Just-In-Time lua compiler library. * asymptote-2.38-1 Asymptote is a powerful descriptive vector graphics language for technical drawing, inspired by MetaPost but with an improved C++-like syntax. Asymptote provides for figures the same high-quality typesetting that LaTeX does for scientific text. In addition, upstream TeX Live provides thousands of "packages", grouped into "collections". There is a Cygwin package for each upstream collection; there are also Cygwin packages containing documentation for some of the collections. * texlive-collection-basic-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-basic-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-bibtexextra-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-bibtexextra-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-binextra-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-binextra-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-context-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-context-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-fontsextra-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-fontsextra-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-fontsrecommended-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-fontsrecommended-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-fontutils-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-fontutils-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-formatsextra-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-games-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-genericextra-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-genericextra-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-genericrecommended-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-genericrecommended-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-htmlxml-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-humanities-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-humanities-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langafrican-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langarabic-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langchinese-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langcjk-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langcyrillic-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langczechslovak-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langenglish-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langeuropean-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langfrench-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langgerman-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langgreek-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langindic-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langitalian-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langjapanese-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langkorean-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langother-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langpolish-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langportuguese-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-langspanish-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-latex-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-latex-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-latexextra-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-latexextra-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-latexrecommended-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-latexrecommended-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-luatex-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-luatex-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-mathextra-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-mathextra-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-metapost-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-metapost-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-music-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-music-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-omega-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-pictures-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-pictures-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-plainextra-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-pstricks-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-pstricks-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-publishers-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-publishers-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-science-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-science-doc-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-xetex-20160520-1 * texlive-collection-xetex-doc-20160520-1 Recommendations =============== Most people do not need the full TeX Live installation, which is huge and can take a long time to install. If you're not sure what you need, here are some possible ways to start: Minimal: Install texlive and its dependencies. This provides plain TeX but not LaTeX. Small: Install texlive-collection-latex and its dependencies. This is a minimal installation with LaTeX. Standard: Install texlive-collection-latexrecommended and its dependencies. This provides the most commonly used non-graphics LaTeX packages. Install texlive-collection-pictures if you want the standard graphics packages too. If you want or need more, consider installing some of the following: * texlive-collection-binextra * texlive-collection-context * texlive-collection-fontsrecommended * texlive-collection-fontutils * texlive-collection-genericrecommended * texlive-collection-luatex * texlive-collection-mathextra * texlive-collection-metapost * texlive-collection-plainextra * texlive-collection-xetex Fontconfig ========== There is a script /usr/bin/texlive-enable-fontconfig that you can run if you want the fonts distributed with TeX Live to be available to applications that rely on fontconfig. See /usr/share/doc/texlive/README.Cygwin for more details. (The script can take a few minutes to run, so be patient.) tlmgr ===== texlive-collection-basic includes a restricted version of the tlmgr (TeX Live Manager) utility. See /usr/share/doc/texlive-collection-basic/README.Cygwin for more details. Ken Brown Cygwin's TeX Live maintainer
