mailing-list for TeXmacs Users

I ran it from command line. It showed this message after exporting to PDF:

TeXmacs] System: gs -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dSAFER
-sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=/Users/wy/1.pdf
/Users/wy/.TeXmacs/system/tmp/tmp_1726084435.ps -c "[ /Title (1.pdf)
/DOCINFO pdfmark"

Does TeXmacs rely on ghostscript? I don't have gs on my mac and I
haven't found a easy way to install it. The GS website doesn't provide
a mac os package.

Can I do without GS?
