Dear list,
The Makefile in source/extra/bibtex/ only builds documentation and no executable
and on CTAN there is no Makefile or even build instructions available. How can
I build BibTeX from source? I guess I start with
$ tangle bibtex.web
to obtain bibtex.p but where do I go from there? What kind of Pascal compiler
do I need? Can I use Free Pascal (https://www.freepascal.org/)? How to set
compilation flags, like 'trace' or 'debug' mode?
Thanks for your help,
Henri
