This is what it's all about (pkg/DESCR):
The manpage says: "(...)
xtem - TeX menu for the X Window System
xtem is an X11 program that makes it easy to use TeX
(incl. editing, previewing, printer selection, printing,
spell checking etc.) with a minimum of unix knowledge and
no knowledge of the specific installation.
Syntax help to the LaTeX commands (including complete
examples) are presented during editing.
xtem runs on workstations (and X-terminals) running the X
Window System and Tcl/Tk/TclX.
The user may easily select and save his preferences (such
as editor, previewer etc.).
(...)"
Buttons, help texts, etc. can be set to the user's pre-
ferred language. At the moment the following languages
are already available: English and German (Others can be
added "easily" by editing the helpfiles accordingly).

These are the problems that I could not solve (.TODO):
Dear FreeBSD portsmaster(s),
this is my first port. So I did (and do) have some problems with it.
In particular, I don't seem to get into my pocketfull of straw how
diff/patch works. It just won't go in. Dunno why.
But anyhow, the port seems to work now, so to say be in a state that
satisfies me, and I will render it to you. These are the problems that
persisted, maybe you can help:
*) fix PLIST to remove directories as well.
*) include distribution patches.
*) check whether there's a more appropiate place to go rather than
${PREFIX}/lib/ (i. e. other than /usr/local/lib) - ask FreeBSD crew.
Thanks a lot, and maybe it'll be of use to some of you.
Saludos,
Peter. Peter Cornelius <pc@akk.uni-karlsruhe.de>
I hope I got this right now... (sweat...).
Cheers, Peter.
