My bad.  I guess I was out of the loop. It appears that layman is much
cooler then gensync, and that gentooscience is already registered with
layman. Thanks for the tip.


The texmacs install instructions via the layman method are:

FIRST TIME INSTALL:
type: emerge layman
type: layman -a science

add the line:
   source /usr/portage/local/layman/make.conf
 to the file /etc/make.conf

add the line:
   app-office/texmacs ~x86
 to the file /etc/portage/packages.keywords

type:  emerge texmacs



AFTER HAVING DONE THE ABOVE ONCE, UPDATE TEXMACS ANYTIME BY:
type: layman -s science
type: emerge texmacs




Using svn directly is possible too,  I just like to give people (and have
for myself) a standardized way to access all thier overlays, instead of
having a add-hock method for accessing each one ;)

This is not *my* overlay, it is being developed by a group of people.
By the way, I have just committed texmacs-1.0.6.8.ebuild.

I heard people use app-portage/layman to add overlays (including this one)
to their portage trees. I haven't tried this, I just say

svn update

Is it very difficult?
