Hi Karl,

Thanks for the quick answer. For replies to your questions, see below.

Maybe. Isn't fink based on dpkg?



Yes.

MacPorts has more packages and a wider user base, is what I was given to believe. It also has Guile 1.8. Is that in fink?



Guile 1.8, 2.0 and 2.2 are present in Fink.

Cheers, 
Peter.

Hi Carl, 

Could you please (if it is not a unsurmountable amount of work) aslo provide the port via fink (see finkproject.org)? Texmacs is available on fink, however the last version there is 1.07.20. Fink is, IMHO, more pleasant to use than macports (e.g. there is a gui called FinkCommander one can use).

Best,
Peter

Instructions are in the editors/TeXmacs directory README.md.

This is using a branch from my personal github clone of TeXmacs. It is using the cmake build system. For some reason, there are no MacOS dialog boxes shown when trying to save-as or export to pdf. The temporary workaround is to open the file you plan to edit using the command line. When you do that, the F3 key and "save" menu item work to save the file. To convert it to a PDF, again use the command line, like:

 texmacs -c myfile.tm myfile.pdf
