How to view DVI on Mac OS X?

Install XQuartz from http://xquartz.macosforge.org and you'll be able to run Xdvi:

xdvi filename.dvi &

from the terminal will do. A full MacTeX (TeX Live) installation is of course required.

...and without XQuartz one can use dvipdfmx filename.dvi to convert dvi to pdf.

I've been using Skim with good results: http://skim-app.sourceforge.net/
