[comp.text] TeX for Macintosh

percus@acf4.UUCP (Allon G. Percus) (01/16/87)

This question has undoubtably been asked numerous times before,
but...

Is TeX available yet for the Macintosh?  If yes, who distributes
it?  If no, any idea when?

Thanks muchly.

            Whether to treat you as an honoured guest,
            Or as a traitor knave who plights his word
            And breaks it."

            I give it for the former!"

My thanks to all those who replied to my question -- if there is
sufficient demand, I shall summarize to the net.
