New uninstaller released

Friday, 13 January 2006 02:24 by CSchenk

I have released a new version of the MiKTeX uninstaller (aka "Remove MiKTeX! Wizard").

The new uninstaller makes a more thorough job:

  • removes the MiKTeX bin directory from the PATH environment variable
  • removes all registry settings
  • completely removes the installation directory (C:\texmf) (previous versions left some files in the installation directory)
  • removes the data directory (C:\localtexmf)

If for some reason you want to keep the data directory, you can always uncheck the "Tidy up thoroughly" check box on the welcome page.

GPL Ghostscript 8.50

Tuesday, 3 January 2006 10:42 by CSchenk

I have compiled the brand new GPL Ghostscript version. It will be available with the next MiKTeX update (as mgs.exe). GPL Ghostscript is used internally by some MiKTeX utilities (Yap, epstopdf, gsftopk, ...).
