We have, at long last, acquired TeXtures.  The University was quite slow
in obtaining the site license, and the Department dragged its heels for
another month before it shelled out the $100 for the box of disks.

My initial impression is quite favorable.  It appears to be faster that
MacTeX.  In addition, it runs on a 1M machine w/o MultiFinder.  (It
claims to be MultiFinder compatible, on a 2M machine.  I haven't tested
this yet.)

The deal included LaTeX and AMSTeX, but I do not see any mention of
BibTeX.  (We only have a ~100 page manual describing the installation of
TeXtures.)  Do you know of a BibTeX for the Mac?  How does it fit into
the TeXtures concept?  (I would expect to find a BibTeX selection in the
Typeset menu.)

Please feel free to e-mail your responses to me.  I will summarize to
the b-board assuming I receive sufficient interest.

Thanks in advance,
