Hi.
I (who has not used MacIntosh before) need to install TeX system for
my friend just bought a MacIntosh (I forgot the model name, but he said
it was the most expensive and best model with CPU speed 40MHz).

I learned that OzTeX is a TeX for Mac.
I ftp'ed and downloaded it to my PC  (not Mac).

Some questions.

1) What kind of things does OzTeX include ?
   AMS-TeX, LaTeX ?

2) Can Mac read PC-formatted diskettes ?

3) The files seem to be compressed. The extensiton names end with '.sit'.
   Where can I get the archive program for him ?

4) Any comments about installing OzTeX are appreciated.

Thanks.
