[OS X TeX] TeX based on TeX Live release

[Paul Vickers]

I think I get the Numpty of the Week award. I re-ran the TeXLive 
ipackage install in expert mode and noticed that the foundation 
documentation option was not ticked. Bah! Thanks for your help guys. 
Nice to know that, yet again, it's the dumb user and not the software 
that's at fault. As a teacher of HCI I guess I should have suspected 
that from the start....

texdoc running nicely now. Dat vind ik leuk :-)

Tot ziens, wiedersehen, à bientôt
