The default LaTeX distribution form is TeXlive. This is what you should install first. If you need a WYSIWYG add-on, you can find tools like LyX or the different TeX you mentioned above in the "editors" category of the ports tree. Depending on the kind and scope of your work, using "plain LaTeX" with your editor of choice, and then simply running the command "pdflatex filename.tex", could be the easiest thing - less overhead, less distraction, less stuff to manually adjust in the GUI. (I'm saying this as a person who does 99 % of all paperwork in "plain LaTeX", with the special case where LaTeX is generated automatically from special tools.) On the other hand, starting LaTeX with a WYSIWYG environment is nothing bad, as long as you don't look into the horror markup it often tends to generate... ;-) -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
