This file contains updates for the teTeX system. If you have a
running teTeX system, here is the way to find out, which updates
are already installed:

  - If there is no file $TEXMF/updates.dat, then you propably have no
    updates installed.

    You can find your $TEXMF by running the command
	kpsexpand '$TEXMF'

  - If there is a file called $TEXMF/updates.dat, it lists the
    installed updates.

To install e.g. update-001.sh, just run it with a bourne shell interpreter
(/bin/sh on most systems, but on some /bin/sh5 or /bin/bsh):
  sh ./update-001.sh
