So nobody objected. If nobody does before EOD (End Of Day), I'll install
the Makefile change.
BTW, I tried to do the change to the .tex files to use pdftex (for the
future), with an annex file like the following :
\input ifpdf.sty
\ifpdf
\def\pdflayout=(#1#2){
\if0#1 % A4
\pdfpagewidth=21cm
\pdfpageheight=29.7cm
\else\if1#1 % Letter
\pdfpagewidth=8.5in
\pdfpageheight=11in
\fi\fi
\if l#2 % Landscape
\edef\oldwidth{\the\pdfpagewidth}
\pdfpagewidth=\pdfpageheight
\pdfpageheight=\oldwidth
\fi
}
\else
\def\pdflayout=(#1#2){}
\fi
but I was unable to find the `csplain' binary file, so I couldn't test
my try for all .tex files. Does someone have this file and know if
there's a cspdfplain ?
