Hello
On the list OS X TEX , the tests of installation of TeXLive are increasingly numerous, and I think that in little time, TeXLive will be the only distribution available. Also I have a first question:
1) If a user installed two distributions: tetex and texlive for example, TM can it work with both? Is there a variable to indicate which distribution to him used?
2) Documentation is planned only for tetex “/usr/local/teTeX/share/ texmf.tetex/”}. It is possible to envisage the same thing for texlive ?
3) Often, the most recent packages are not in the current distributions. We install them in “~/Library/texmf/” or in “/usr/ local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/”.
Is there a possibility of having access to new documentations?
4) If, I want to do all that myself, which is the good method :
a) for the choice of the distribution?
b) for documentation in “~/Library/texmf/”?
Thanks and Greetings

Did you read the thread /usr/local/tetex on the OS X TeX list? There was detailed information about how two TeX trees might interact there. Best, Mark On 2 Nov 2006, at 08:02, Alain Matthes wrote:

For new threads USE THIS: textmate@lists.macromates.com (threading gets destroyed and the universe will collapse if you don't) http://lists.macromates.com/mailman/listinfo/textmate

Yes but it's not really the problem ...
"Sorry for my bad english..."
1) how to use TextMate with "tetex and texlive" : in TM and in the command Typset we have :
kpsewhich --expand-var '$TEXINPUTS' and i want to know if it's a problem or not ?
For the pdflatex command we need to set the PATH variable in /etc/ profile to include the path of pdflatex but it is not really satisfactory: commands like Typset find their way automatically and others as Documentation depend on the distribution
2) how to use "Documentation for Package" with texlive because Documentation is planned only for tetex “/usr/local/teTeX/share/ texmf.tetex/”. I can make a change by myself but ... tetex is dead and in the future, texlive will be the only one distribution.
Perhaps a variable to make a choice beetween tetex and texlive is a good answer ???
3) How to read with TM the documentation in ~/library/texmf ?
Greetings Alain Matthes
