   Yes, that is indeed a problem, which I have just corrected on the CVS 
version.
   Notice however that you also should use the "merge" primitive in order to
   concatenate strings.

I've been trying to use the CVS version and having some trouble. This
is on a Macintosh running MacOS 10.3 with a unix-formatted disk
partition for user files; texmacs 1.0.5 installed via fink works
perfectly. I would like to install the CVS version of texmacs in my
own account.

I obtained the source via anonymous CVS without any problem, and then did:

 ./configure --prefix=/Volumes/UFS/Users/davew/lib/TeXmacs/
 make && make install

and got texmacs and fig2ps in my lib/TeXmacs directory without any
trouble at all. I added this to my path, and then tried to run
TeXmacs, but got lots of font errors followed by a statement that "Tex
seems not to be installed properly" (see transcript below). I ftp'd
the type 1 fonts from the web site in case that would help, removed my
old .TeXmacs directory, and tried again, getting essentially the same
errors (I think there was no error about the font ecrm10.123pk but the
rest were still there).

Can you give any other advice about how to get this working? I'm
planning to also try the same sequence on an Ubuntu linux box I could
use if necessary.

Welcome to TeXmacs 1.0.6.4

Since this seems to be the first time you run this
version of TeXmacs, I will first analyze your system
in order to set up some TeX paths in the correct way.
This may take some seconds; the result can be found in
