On MacOS Mojave, fire up homebrew and it tells you:

There are three versions of MacTeX.

Full installation:   brew cask install mactex

Full installation without bundled applications:   brew cask install mactex-no-gui

Minimal installation:   brew cask install basictex

This probably the easiest way to get into Tex, IMHO.

Hi tim,

we (that means, mainly Patrick) are currently working on updating all contents and screenshots of the book to match the latest Squeak version. By the way, we are taking this opportunity to codify each screenshots with a short script in the tex source, so they will not deprecate so fast again (until someone reworks the whole UI) :D

Excellent. And thank you!

What are your tool questions about in detail?

Having never - to the best of my knowledge - used anything that edits LaTEX, I am ignorant of what tool I might use to make any attempt at helping. What editors (Mac, obviously) are capable of editing such a document in any form other than the 'good grief what is this stuff' plain text?
