If you install by hand, make sure to install the X11User.pkg package. - -Apple's documentation on X11: http://developer.apple.com/opensource/tools/X11.html - -You should install Apple's X11. But if you have a good reason not to, Fink (see below) provides the latest X.org distribution. Refer to Fink documentation for details. MAKE SURE YOU NEVER MIX TWO X11 VERSIONS ON THE SAME SYSTEM. - - -Installing all the rest through Fink ------------------------------------- - -Fink is the packaging system from Debian ported to MacOS X. Installing Fink itself is very straightforward, so only two things will be mentioned here: -- you must download and install the latest Xcode version from Apple (free download, just requires registration), -- make sure Fink uses the package repository compatible with your system (specifically, if you have MacOS X 10.4, use the 10.4 branch and *not* the 10.4-transitional branch). - -Fink lets you choose between precompiled, ready-to-use, packages, and compiling them yourself. Practically speaking, the Fink project provides few up-to-date precompiled packages, so compilation is often necessary. But don't worry, the procedure is automatic in any case. - -After that, installing the rest is very straightforward: - -- LaTeX distribution: install packages "tetex" and "tetex-base". -- KDE libraries: the bare minimum would be package "tdebase3-unified", but you should also install packages like "kpdf", "kdvi" and "kghostview" to make best use of Kile. Installing a localisation package to have dialogs in your language would also be nice ; for example, the French package is called "tde-i18n-french". -- Kile: its package is called "kile". -- Other useful packages, depending on your habits: "bibview", "gnuplot", "xfig", "beamer", "texpower"... Just go shopping with Fink. - -Have fun! - -Fink project: http://fink.sourceforge.net - - -Other installation methods --------------------------- - -There is no easy way, other than Fink, to install the KDE libraries and Kile. But if you want, there is another popular way to install LaTeX: the i-Installer. - -i-Installer web site: http://ii2.sourceforge.net - - -[This Readme was contributed by Thibaut Cousin ([email protected])] |
