Dear Gerben,

first of all a big Happy New Year to you and to all the other
guys in this list.

Thanks a lot for your suggestion. But I was not able to do that yet.
I have obtained the following message:

[localhost:~] languasc% sudo texconfig hyphen pdflatex
Password:
sudo: texconfig: command not found

I have to be in some specific directory to run texconfig or maybe I
have to run some other command before ?
I have the teTeX distribution associated with TeXshop.

Sorry if this question is stupid.  Maybe you (or some other guy) already
said what I have to do to abilitate the tex commands.

Another question: do you know where I can find a guide to
teTeX distribution? Something where I can learn how to abilitate
the commands, and how is organized the teTeX path... and so on.

A wish for the TeXShop wish-list: it would be very useful if TeXshop
could allow to customize teTeX formats, or the default editor,
via some script (or something like that).

Thanks again,
	Alessandro
