LaTeX Error: File `epsfig.sty' not found. Hmm... I looked through the PLIST from the latex port and it lists no style files. That seems a bit weird. I recommend installing latex via the teTeX port - I've had no trouble w/ it and the style files are installed as well. Just so you know, epsfig.sty should be in : /usr/local/share/texmf/tex/latex/graphics/epsfig.sty > Secondly, when I try to run xdvi, I get: > > xdvi /usr/home/mike/text/python.dvi > - MakeTeXPK cmti10 300 300 magstep\(0\) > /usr/local/bin/MakeTeXPK: Running mf \mode:=cx; mag:=magstep(0); > [snip] > (/usr/local/share/texmf/metafont/itall.mf [97] [98] [99] [100] [101] [102] > [103] [104] [105] [106] [107]^C- MakeTeXPK cmr10 300 300 magstep\(0\) > followed by much, much more of the same.
