Dear fellow Hyperlatex users:
I am experiencing several strange problems using Hyperlatex (2.9a) with
Emacs 23 (actually, 23.1.1), running on Fedora 11, and am curious whether
anyone has experienced similar problems, and knows how to fix them. For the
record,
* these problems all continue to occur if I drop back to Hyperlatex 2.7, but
* none of them occurs under Emacs 22.3.1 (running on Fedora 10).
The problems can be reproduced using the test files "dgb.tex" and "dbg.sch",
appended below (placing both in the same directory).
If I run hyperlatex dbg.tex, here is what happens:
(1) Hyperlatex chokes on the "\multicolumn" command (line 16 of dbg.tex);
see TERMINAL OUTPUT #1, appended below.
If I then comment out this line, it chokes on "\input\schedfilename"
(line 28); see TERMINAL OUTPUT #2, appended below. It's very odd that
it can't find file "dbg.sch", even though it's in the same directory.
If I then change "\schedfilename" to the explicit file name "dbg.sch",
it finds the file, but now chokes on the "longtable" environment
(within "dbg.sch"); see TERMINAL OUTPUT #3, appended below.
(2) Note that in all three TERMINAL OUTPUT's there are non-printable
characters in the "Hyperlatex ERROR:" line -- "magic characters"?
(3) If I now change the "longtable" environment (in "dbg.sch") to a
"tabular" environment, hyperlatex appears to run to completion, but
now the html output (appended below) contains non-printable
characters.
Perhaps I should also add that when I byte-compiled hyperlatex.el (during
the installation), I did get several error messages (appended below).
If anyone can shed any light on these "goings-on", I would be most grateful.
