[Tugindia] tugindia Digest, Vol 93, Issue 1

[David Owen]

Dear Radhakrishnan, Shrisha,
Thanks for your replies. I apologize for taking so long to answer.
I think I asked the wrong questions. When I installed MacTex I was expecting
to see a little icon named MacTex. What I now believe happens (please
correct me) is  that two applications: Texshop and Texworks are installed. I
saw these but I did not know that they were new.
What is closest to Winedt for the Mac? I have been using Winedt and I like
it alot. As you see I am rather ignorant about the Mac and am interested to
learn.
Thanks again for everything.
Regards,
David
