[OS X TeX] Switcher 1.1

[Claus Gerhardt]

I don't think that you need to install any new tex package, since  
Switcher would never have started up without a valid symlink /usr/ 
local/texprograms. Presumably you entered a wrong tex path in TeXShop  
and couldn't tex. In your search for the correct path you must have  
found an old installation in opt.

Use Switcher to switch between tetex and texlive2500, the reveal  
button will show their actual paths.
