I have attempted to contact "tremble", but there seems no link to do so 
and I have no need to join any Fedora group.

As I recall, there were EPEL proponents (developers?) who have 
corresponded to this SL list -- would anyone care to comment on the 
status of GNU TeXmacs?  Note that I do receive .tm files and thus need a 
way to at least convert these to some form of LaTeX source from which I 
can attempt to recover the necessary information.  As for now, I 
personally have given up on all the LaTeX front ends but Texstudio (that 
does run under SL7) as I cannot afford the only true LaTeX WYSIWYG 
(http://bakoma-tex.com/ , albeit it is not evident from the web site if 
this in fact will run under SL7).   However, I attempt to keep extant 
versions of as many such applications as I can mostly to help students 
who need to submit formalism in PDF using LaTeX (I have found no text 
processing system superior to LaTeX for producing journal articles and 
the equivalent, such as theses).


A build of TeXmacs from either source or the rpmbuild from a source rpm 
fails, and I do not have the personal spare time nor the personnel 
resources to fix this.
