This doesn't work for me. If I re-typeset while filename.pdf has focus, it tries to typeset filename.dat rather than filename.tex. > Further, If i created filename.abc (or, I guess, any file > filename.xxx), I see the same problem as filename.dat. > > So I'm not sure if the problem is a real bug as you explained. > Please enlighten me. > > Thanks for your report. > Best regards, 2011-11-24(Thu) > > -- > Debian Developer - much more I18N of Debian > Atsuhito Kohda <kohda AT debian.org> > Department of Math., Univ. of Tokushima > -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
