I'm very sad to hear this, allthough I'm always installing teTeX via pkg_add -r, and I never found something not working anymore. Is there any consideration to remove teTeX completely from the ports tree, or is it still valid to keep using it? (I use LaTeX for nearly everything: work, documentation, literature, even for letters (dinbrief class), so I'm interested in this topic.) Many thanks for pointing out how to get \LaTeX{} from TeXLive. -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0
