Well I just don't know what is left. Perhaps I should just go back

I have tried everything I can think of.
Only one version, is that just 'echo $PATH' ? This gives;
<minimal path>
Got no idea from this. Do you have OS 10.3, if so what is your path?
I would hazard a guess and say that TeXLive is installing a startup
script for a different shell than you are using.
Is there any reason you need TeXLive? If it's not configuring
properly
then it can be a long, tedious, and complicated process getting
everything working.
I would highly, stronger, most definitely recommend Gerben Weirda's
TeX distribution. You can get it by following the instructions in the
first box here:
<http://www.mecheng.adelaide.edu.au/~will/texstart/>
It's designed to install TeX with a minimum of fuss and will almost
certainly work first time. (unless you've been messing with
~/.MacOSX/environment.plist...)
Good luck
Will

Well Will It's like this. I live in the bush in central Victoria,
Australia My download speed is around 2Kb/second. My connection is sus
at best and a twelve hour + download is... well not likely succeed.
The largest chunk in the package is around 20MB I think.
I
can get access to a broadband connection if you know where I can get
the Tex file to put on disk.
You could buy the shareware OzTeX distribution on CD. It does contain
an
i-Installer distribution as well, but I do not know how recent. Mail
Andrew and ask.

Hi Gerben
Well after a long fight I have convinced the iMac to give me
permissions for the "/usr/local/teTex" directory. This leaves me with a
Tex installation in this directory.
Next step is to make the path so it can be found by iTexMac or TexShop.
Question; How do I do this? The instructions from the TexLive DVD do
not work. Error message "texconfig: command not found".
What is the correct way to make the path under OS10.3?
George
