Using xdvi on macOS

Hi all,

based on this report[1], it seems necessary to install XQuartz[2] in
order to use xdvi distributed with MacTeX.  It may be obvious, but I
couldn't find any documentation about it inside MacTeX help files.  DVI
is old and all, and I don't need it, but maybe this dependency should be
mentioned somewhere in the documentation for the people using that
format.

TIA and looking forward to MacTeX 2024.

Best, Arash
