+<title>UK TeX FAQ -- question label sysmac</title>
+</head><body>
+<h3>Macintosh systems</h3>
+<p/>The <a href="FAQ-CD.html">TeX collection</a> DVD includes MacTeX,
+which is a Mac-tailored version of TeX Live; details may be found on
+the <a href="http://tug.org/mactex">TUG web site</a>. If you don&#8217;t
+have the disc, you can download the distribution from CTAN (but
+note that it&#8217;s pretty big). MacTeX is an instance of TeX Live,
+and has a Mac-tailored graphical TeX Live manager, so that you can
+keep your distribution up-to-date.
+<p/><a href="http://www.trevorrow.com/oztex/">OzTeX</a>, by Andrew Trevorrow,
+is a shareware version of TeX for the Macintosh. A DVI
+previewer and PostScript driver are also included.
+OzTeX is a Carbon app, so will run under Mac OS/X (see
+<a href="http://www.trevorrow.com/oztex/ozosx.html">http://www.trevorrow.com/oztex/ozosx.html</a> for details), but it
+is <em>not</em> a current version: it doesn&#8217;t even offer PDFTeX. A
+mailing list is provided by TUG: sign up via
+<a href="http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/oztex">http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/oztex</a>
+<p/>Another partly shareware program is
+<a href="http://www.kiffe.com/cmactex.html">CMacTeX</a>, put together by
+Tom Kiffe. CMacTeX is much closer than OzTeX to the Unix TeX
+model of things (it uses <i>dvips</i>, for instance). CMacTeX
+runs natively under Mac OS/X; it includes a port of a version of
+<a href="FAQ-omegaleph.html">Omega</a>.
+<p/>
+ Further information may be available in the
+ <a href="http://mactex-wiki.tug.org/">MacTeX wiki</a>.
+The MacTeX-on-OS X mailing list is another useful resource for
