Do you get a yellow warning badge on the window? BibDesk just calls execve(2) on the executable file you've set as the pdflatex binary, so unless that's a shell script (in which case execve would read the shebang to find an interpreter), I don't see know offhand why this would fail. Your shell isn't directly invoked at all. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start uncovering the many advantages of virtual appliances and start using them to simplify application deployment and accelerate your shift to cloud computing. http://p.sf.net/sfu/novell-sfdev2dev _______________________________________________ Bibdesk-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bibdesk-users
