Hello:)
First, actually I work with TexMate and gwtex based on TL 2007 but I need for my work at school a portable PC (with Ubuntu )
With Ubuntu, I installed (by hand) TL2007, because Debian and Ubuntu works only in "experimental" with TL 2005.
I would like to have the same distibution on OS X and Ubuntu, The only solution is to install TL2007 on the MAC but i would like to know if they are some difficulties :
With linux i've texmf in /$HOME and texlive in /usr/local/texlive with now 2007/ and texmf-local/
I think there is no problem to work with TextMate and TL2007 but can you confirm that !
Not having installed TL2007 I can't really confirm it, but if you install via the MacTeX packages there should definitely not be a problem. If you install in some other way, you would have to set a symbolic link from /usr/texbin to wherever the TL2007 executables are (in particular, the executable kpsewhich).
Actually with gwtex, i have a problem with "documentation for package", perhaps i need to make some adaptations for this with TL2007
My TeX installation actually doesn't have the package documentation at all with it, so I can't even test the command at all. Brad Miller is more familiar with that command, perhaps he can answer the question.
I remember seeing in the mactex mailing list though, that there were some problems with the documentation links in TL2007, so that the "texdoc" command wouldn't work properly.
