Hi,
complete newbie here;
I have a problem -- I have a .tex file from work, maybe ca. 10 years old, now I need to open and get that into a pdf.
I installed MacTeX. Opening the .tex file I get error: "jeep.sty not found".
I can find jeep.sty on the internet. Now the question: where should jeep.sty sit on my mac, so that MacTeX finds it?

Hello & MacTex question
Welcome!
You can always put all file (also sty-files) into the folder of the main-document. For user-wide or system-wide installation of files see: How do I install CTAN packages on Mac OS with TexShop?
BTW: Sometimes very old files (i. e. if the code was already ugly from the beginning) do not compile with up-to-date TeX distributions. In this case, please ask a new question in the right LaTeX (sub)forum.

Sorry, but I can no longer participate here as the administrator is trampling on my wishes on one of his other platforms.
