These files form a LaTeX-version of Grothendieck's Pursuing Stacks (PS) typescript from 1983. The files are released into the public domain. It is requested, though, that positive changes or alternative layouts are shared if they could be of help to others.
The included Makefile is set up so that all you should need is to
type make if you have a recent
TeX Live installation (including the
pdfcrop tool). The reason a Makefile is helpful is because three
pdf-files, simplex.pdf, square.pdf and globe.pdf are made only
once and then only included once when compiling the main document
(these contain symbols for the three main shape categories mentioned
throughout PS).
