dvitty is intended for previewing dvi-files on text-only devices (terminals and lineprinters). The output is not very pretty many times, but it still saves quite a lot of work, especially if you have a little ways to walk to a laserprinter, for example.
The program was originally written in Hedrick-Pascal, running on TOPS-20, and was later ported to UNIX (BSD, Berkeley-pascal).
It is not very smart in all situations, but still serves it pur- pose fairly well.
For information on how to use see the man-page.
Before compiling and installing inspect the “compile-time cust- omization constants” and change them to suit your site. These constants configure default pager and a little more.
