Thanks, the TEXShop lead was helpful. The one I tried (i-Installer) is no longer supported but googling for TEXShop helped me find MacTeX which seems to be the currently supported distribution. I installed it (which includes TEXShop) but it is still not parsing the documentation. When I try to "Typeset" any of these TEX files in the SPM-EEG manual, I get an error message that the first line is "! Undefined control sequence". Any suggestions on how to make this work? I just want to be able to read the manual. Thanks!
