Hello Darren, the & is also in my solution! and I always had to change "%s" to %s and I also added a 'c:' before the cd because " cd c:\temp\ " is not working when the command is starten from d:
so finally I have: c: & cd %s & latex -interaction=nonstopmode %s ... But I thinks this is not enough to get dvipng working, so I've changed the $HOME to a path without spaces. Wolfgang If you wan't I can mail you the files which I've changed. Darren Dale schrieb: > Part of the problem is that DOS doesnt allow the semicolon to delimit > multiple > commands.
