OK, I didn't realise their was a forum rule to bottom post, the default in gmail is to top post, which I much prefer anyway, so unless bottom posting is specifically required, I leave it at top posting. I also didn't realise that Gmail was sending as HTML. I can't find an option to default to plain text, but I can manually change each email, so I will try to remember to do this for you. Text is my normal default for email clients so will persevere to see if I can switch HTML off. Having searched the internet a bit more, it seems that this is a known intermittent fault, and now that I have tried again, its working in both my Linux and Mac boxes, even though neither were working yesterday, even when the same files were compiling fine with other editors. So while irrelevant now, "which latex" on the Mac gives me a directory of /usr/texbin/pdflatex and on ubuntu /usr/bin/pdflatex. and the -Q switch wasn't recognised on the Mac Any way, I suspect I now just wait for a bug fix and hope it doesn't return. Its been a bad three days with me not managing to get anything done because of one mysterious problem after another, so I appreciate you trying to help.
