TeXShop is a TeX previewer for Mac OS X, written in Cocoa. Since pdf is a native file format on OS X, TeXShop uses "pdftex" and "pdflatex" rather than "tex" and "latex" to typeset; these programs in the standard teTeX distribution of TeX produce pdf output instead of dvi output.
What's new in this version:
- Fixed severe memory leakage on Leopard; said another way, the hidden preference item ReleaseDocumentClasses is now automatically set correctly on Leopard.
- Fixed pdf drag and drop on Leopard. In earlier versions on Leopard, a dragged pdf selection had a white background, making the feature problematic for Keynote and other programs. Now a dragged pdf selection has a transparent background, as it always did on Tiger.
- Support for the Hiero package, used to typeset hieroglyphics. See http://www. filipvervloesem.be/hierotexmac/ and the detailed explanation on http://www. filipvervloesem.be/hierotexmac/hierotex.html.
- Support for Sketch, used to construct 3D images in pdf files. See www.frontiernet. net/~eugene.ressler/.
- Generalizing the last two items, support for adding additional extensions to the list of filetypes which can be processed via TeXShop engines.
- The default templates now include a template for Beamer taken directly from the beamer web page. To see it, move the folder /Library/TeXShop/Templates to the desktop and restart TeXShop. The default Templates folder will be created. Merge your old Templates folder in with the new one. Follow the link and
