Thx kerim, 

I did already install MacTex package, 

but I couldn't figure out how to get it (TexShop) to recognize chinese.

I am not familiar wit cwTeX, but CJK package. The latter comes as a
standard issued package since TeXLive 2007. Now that you've installed
MacTeX, CJK package as well as a free Chinese font should be in your
TeX setup.

Launch TeXShop and create a new document window. Paste the following
code.

%!TEX encoding = UTF-8 Unicode
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage{CJKutf8}
\begin{document}
\begin{CJK}{UTF8}{bsmi}
This is a test. 中文字測試。
\end{CJK}
\end{document}

------------- <<< end of the code
Typesetting should be no problem even for a freshly installed MacTeX.
You probably do not set the encoding to UTF-8 in the preference of
TeXShop.

I have made some note on MacTeX (TeXLive 2007 version) on my web page
at
<http://exciton.eo.yzu.edu.tw/%7Elab/latex/install_cjk.html>

The newer versions (2008 and 2009) should behave the same.

Hope this may help.
