I've shortened the list port spit out to what looked like the most  
relevant entries.

port search tex
TeXShop                        aqua/TeXShop   2.09d        TeX  
previewer for Mac OS X
TeXmacs                        editors/TeXmacs 1.0.6.10     GNU  
TeXmacs: A Scientific Text Editor
teTeX                          print/teTeX    3.0          TeX and  
METAFONT
XeTeX                          tex/XeTeX      0.995        The XeTeX  
typesetting system
