NEW: memoir (a LaTeX class)



PORT:
    print/memoir

LOCATION:
    http://zentience.mongers.org/tmp/memoir.tar.gz
    http://zentience.mongers.org/tmp/memoir.tar.gz.MD5  (md5 sum)
    cd(1) to .../ports/print and untar.

DESCRIPTION:
    Memoir is a flexible LaTeX class for typesetting general fiction,
    non-fiction and mathematical works as books, reports, articles or
    manuscripts.  Many methods are provided to let you create your
    particular design.

COMMENT:
    Working on this port I realized that TeX ports does not use
    $LOCALBASE/share/{texmf,texmf-local} in a consistent way.  I elected
    to use $LOCALBASE/share/texmf as I prefer to have texmf-local free
    for site specific packages, texmf will be managed by the packaging
    system.  This makes the most sense to me.

    The other ports using texmf-local are:
        print/foiltex/pkg/PLIST
        print/ppower4/pkg/PLIST
        print/prosper/pkg/PLIST
        russian/pscyr/pkg/PLIST

    I think they should be changed to use $LOCALBASE/share/texmf so all
    TeX ports do the same thing.  Either that or all ports should be
    made to use texmf-local.  Just to make it consistent.  Comments?


Have a nice day
                                 Morten
