Silly question I know, but I'm new to the Mac and I am trying to find the documentation for the Beamer class.
It depends on how you installed TeX. If you used MacTeX, it can be found at:
/usr/local/texlive/2007/texmf-dist/doc/latex/beamer/doc/ beameruserguide.pdf
Also how do I install extra classes. This all seemed failry obvious with MikTex on Windows but struggling to find my way around the Mac.
The standard location is ~/Library/texmf/tex/latex. (Note that LyX won't recognize extra classes unless you have an appropriate .layout file.)
