Hi folks,

I've always wanted to learn a little more about TeX / LaTeX. As a very
first step, I should probably set up the appropriate tools on my system.
But already at this point, I have a little problem: I don't know what to
actually install.

First, I have seen /usr/ports/print/latex, which seemed to be just what I
wanted. But then, I also noticed /usr/ports/print/teTeX, which in its
pkg-descr claims to be "_the_ TeX distribution for UNIX compatible
systems".

So, can somebody point out the difference between the latex and teTeX port
for me? Is latex probably already included in the teTeX port (it claims to
contain everything needed for happy texing). Or does it make sense to
install both the latex and teTeX ports?

Suggestions welcome!

Greetings
Nils
