Mac Tex Environment

Question

I'm looking for a TeX environment for Mac OS, a bit like TeXnicCenter for windows. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

I recommend the MacTeX distribution. The TeX distribution that it comes with is TeX Live 2008, which is newer than the TeX distribution available though i-Installer (a.k.a ii2). MacTeX also comes with the TeX Live Utility, a graphical interface for the TeX Live package manager for installing, updating, or otherwise managing (La)TeX packages. It also comes with TeXShop, a (La)TeX editor that is comparable to TeXnicCenter (I personally like it much better than TeXnicCenter).
