Hi there, I would recommend a small nifty utility called rubber. It is simply a front end for the most common latex compile commands. Thus, if you want to compile your latex file into pdf simply run
rubber --pdf <filename>.tex It takes care of everything. It is available in the debian packages. Amit -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
