TPM Directory???

[ALAN A DUNWELL]

Howdy All,

I have installed fpTeX using the ftp download copy rather than the texlive 
distribution. Part of the install makes a Program Menu item TeXLive and in the 
Maintenance sub folder is "Add a TeX Package". When I try to run this I get an 
error message
   Error: Can not find the TPM directory.
as it tries to start the installer.

- What is a TPM directory and why doesn't fpTeX know about it? What is this add 
procedure actually trying to do?
- Is this add procedure needed? Can one just do the install from CTAN of, for 
example amstex, and rerun the mktexlsr with the same end result?
