I'm looking at instructions from Wolfram for Mathematica 4.x and adding in their
fonts so that LaTeX code generated by Mathematica can be used in a LateX
document. They instruct:

--------- message clip -------
3.Merge the contents of /usr/share/texmf/dvips/init/wolfram.map into the the
dvips file psfonts.map. This can be done by creating a symbolic link in
/usr/share/texmf/dvips/config.  

        cd /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config
        ln -s ../init/wolfram.map ./wolfram.map

Afterwards, open the file /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/updmap in a text editor
and add wolfram.map to the list of files in the modules variable. After editing,
the assignment may look something like this:  

extra_modules="
  wolfram.map
"

Once the changes have been saved, run the script updmap with the working 
directory set to
     /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config 
        cd /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config
    ./updmap

This will make the Mathematica Type 1 fonts available to dvips and other 
applications that use these configuration files.  
--------- end clip ------

Note the part about editing updmap. This is just fine in teTeX on a UNIX type
box, but fpTeX has a different structure for updmap so their instructions don't
apply. Further more the fpTeX version looks to be a direct copy from a some
other UNIX type machine: ------- fpTeX updmap -------- #!/bin/sh # updmap:
create psfonts.map from smaller "modules". rm -f psfonts.map cat `ls ../*/*.map
| grep -v bsr.*map | grep -v hoekwater.map \ | grep -v tli.map  | grep -v
bakomaextra.map ` \ | grep -v '^%' | sort | uniq | sed '/^$/d' > psfonts.map
--------- end updmap ---------

so I have to question whether this can be run on a WinDoz machine at all.

Suggestions for this part of the process.

Thanks,
Alan Dunwell
