[OS X TeX] sagetex use from TeXShop

[Murray Eisenberg]

Environment: SageMath-9.1.app, TeXShop 4.44, MacTeX/TeXLive 2020, under macOS 10.15.5.

SageMath-9.1.app will NOT work properly as an app if its name is changed to SageMath.app, even if then the alias /Applications/SageMath-9.1.app/sage is changed to have as target the binary /Applications/SageMath-9.1.app/Contents/MacOS/Sage. 

Hence:

	(1) the recommendation in TeXShop's About Sage.pdf to rename the app to SageMath.app and then to edit sage.engine to remove “8.7” from the call /Applications/SageMath-8.7.app... cannot be used; and
 	(2) the recommendation in TeXShop’s  SageAndLatexmk.pd to rename the app to SageMath.app and then create the link in /usr/local/bin to /Applications/SageMath.app/Contents/Resources/sage/sage and the link in /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/tex/latex sagetex  to /Applications/SageMath.app/Contents/Resources/sage/local/share/texmf/tex/latex/sagetex.sty cannot be used either.

	Instead, the links have to point to the corresponding files in /Applications/SageMath-9.1.app/Contents/Resources/sage.

	Or else, if you are putting local files in or else, as I have done then: copy sagetex.sty — from either the Sage distribution itself or, what gives the same version, from a ctan download —  to ~/Library/texmf/tex/latex/sagetex.
