TeXmacs port

2003-02-06 Thread Michael Graffam
Who is maintaining the GNU TeXmacs port to FreeBSD? The port is somewhat out-of-date: 1.0.1 is the current stable release, the FreeBSD port is 1.0.0. I tried building TeXmacs from the source, but it has some problems. I'm going to work on it over the weekend and see if I can get it working.
