Martin,

I completely forgot about your instructions. So I went back and 
followed them and everything seems to be working. Fink Commander shows 
the update to TeXmacs as 1.0.6.6-2.

However, when I select <Source>Install it runs and everything works but 
it can't find the TeXmacs file on any server. It displays:

Downloading the file "TeXmacs-1.0.6.6-R2-src.tar.gz" failed.
(1) Give up
(2) Retry the same mirror
(3) Retry another mirror
(4) Retry using next mirror set "Custom (package-defined) servers"

I've tried multiple mirror and I know my internet connection is solid.

Any ideas?

Bob
