TeX-to-C system based on change files under Unix, which were primarily the original work of Howard
Trickey and Pavel Curtis. Tim Morgan became the maintainer of the system, and during this period
the name changed to Web-to-C. In 1990, Karl Berry took over the work, assisted by dozens of
additional contributors, and in 1997 he handed the baton to Olaf Weber, who returned it to Karl in

+\subsection{Using external Perl, Tcl/Tk and Ghostscript
+ installations}
+\label{sec:externalwndws}
+Normally, \TL{} will use its built-in Perl, Tcl/Tk and Ghostscript also
+for contributed scripts within \TL. If you wish to use your own external
+versions, then you can configure that in the \file{texmf.cnf} file
+\emph{in the root of the installation}.
+
+For Perl, you need to add a line
+\begin{verbatim}
+TEXLIVE_WINDOWS_TRY_EXTERNAL_PERL = 1
+\end{verbatim}
+\TL{} (specifically, \file{bin/win32/runscript.tlu}) will then search
+for \file{perl.exe} on the search path, except for scripts which belong
+to the \TL{} infrastructure. This is the most likely setting of the
+three to be useful; although the \TL{} Perl includes many additional
+modules, it cannot support all third-party scripts.
+
+Similarly, for Tcl/Tk you need a line
+\begin{verbatim}
+TEXLIVE_WINDOWS_TRY_EXTERNAL_TCL = 1
+\end{verbatim}
+\TL{} will then search for \file{tclkit.exe}, \file{wish.exe},
+\file{wish85.exe}, \file{wish86.exe} and \file{wish87.exe} on the
+searchpath.
+
+Ghostscript is handled differently, in that you need to specify the
+filename or the full path of your command-line Ghostscript:
+\begin{alltt}
+TEXLIVE_WINDOWS_EXTERNAL_GS = \var{path of command-line ghostscript}
+\end{alltt}
+Another difference is that the Ghostscript shipped with \TeX\ Live
+is complete, with only documentation and printer drivers omitted. So
+it's unlikely you'll have any need to override it.
+
+See also section \ref{sec:configfiles} about \file{texmf.cnf}.
