I'm not a LaTeX user and I actually don't like the current way of having Create DVI/PDF and Run DVI/PDF commands. Every filetype in Geany has a Compile, an optionally Linker and a Run command. LaTeX is the only filetype which has more, special commands and this caused lots of extra code whereas all other filetypes are handled by a smaller, more generic code base. Instead of adding even more very special cases for LaTeX, I'd like to remove the special code and make it as every other filetype. For the mentioned special cases, Makefiles can be used, a separate plugin (probably best way). There is already a GeanyLatex plugin which adds some more functionality, maybe it can be extend to provide better build commands for special LaTeX needs and we can remove the special code from Geany's core to keep it cleaner. As a workaround for a least one more command you can use the "Context action command" (see the manual for details). Regards, Enrico -- Get my GPG key from http://www.uvena.de/pub.asc
