I do not know much about teX, except when someone sends me a teX file, I type
tex <filename> and I get a .dvi file out of it.  The .dvi file is then printed
on a laserwriter and the fonts and quality is great.  What I am wondering (and
if there isn't one availiable, asking for) is whether or not there is some
mac program that will convert a text (binary) file that has the tex macros and
commands into a .dvi file.  And more importantly, a program that will print out
.dvi files (or the original text (in teX format) file on my imagewriter II.
Any ideas or help?  I downloaded a program off GEnie called teX previewer.  I
hoped that it would do the above, but it doesn't seem to do much.  I tried to
read a text (teX format) file, but no go.  I tried to read a .dvi file, but that
did not work either.  If someone wants, I can try mailing or uploading the
file so it may be played with.  Thanx
