explain alias stuff
alias texexec='texmfstart texexec'
alias texutil='texmfstart texutil'
This redirects calls for texmfstart, texecec and texutil to the real texmfstart script.
The path is the one of Gerben Wierda's iInstaller, perhaps you must adapt it.
Ah, "'''what is a <tt>.profile</tt>?" That's your Terminal configuration file, it lives in your home directory (<tt>/Users/yourname</tt>), but it's hidden (or maybe there's none yet). If you have TextWrangler (or BBedit) installed, you could edit it with
edit ~/.profile
and paste the above lines.
Beware: This will work only if you call your commands in Terminal (i.e. on the shell), probably not in TeXshop or the like.
