WELCOME TO THE UNIX WORD!


Assume that you saved it on your Desktop.
Launch terminal which is in /Applications/Utilities [this is the only
Mac specific part]
Type in the prompt

% cd ~/Desktop
% chmod a+x update-tlmgr-latest.sh
% sudo ./update-tlmgr-latest.sh

enter password

You are done! It is prescription from K.Berry who wrote and rewrote
update-tlmgr-latest.sh
