Description

features

TeX Live Utility is a free and open source macOS graphical interface for TeX Live Manager that aims to provide a native macOS interface for the most commonly used functions of the TeX Live Manager command-line tool.

The TeX Live Utility app is designed to help you effortlessly set paper size for all the TeX programs you run on your Mac, as well as rapidly removing and installing packages.

Why should you use TeX Live Utility when you can use the command line tlmgr or the Perl/Tk GUI?

Because TeX Live Utility performs TeX Live infrastructure updates using the Disaster Recovery script, which avoids problems with tlmgr removing itself while updating.

What's more, there's no compelling reason to switch from the command line or X11 GUI if you're you're comfortable with them.

Detailed instructions on how to install and use TeX Live Utility on your Mac are available on the Getting Started page, on its official website.

What's new in TeX Live Utility 1.54:

Moved scripts to Resources, in another attempt to fix MacTeX signing problems. Pretty sure one understands how code signing actually works, which would also explain the state of Apple documentation.
Eliminate redundant favicon logging, since you people keep reading my logs and trying to intepret them.
Leave /usr/local/bin in PATH to try using the user-installed gpg, which is probably a huge mistake that will result in more bad words in the codebase as a reminder to myself when I have to remove it again.
Fix some translation issues reported by users (thanks!)
