With this patch, you can use pdflatex instead of latex, in two different
ways: use a %pdflatex cell in the notebook, or call
{{{
latex.pdflatex(True)
}}}
after which any use of latex (in a %latex cell or using the {{{view}}}
command) will use pdflatex.
This way, if you have the most recent version of pgf installed, as well as
the tkz-graph package, you can get pictures like those at
[http://altermundus.com/pages/graph.html] in your notebook. (I think that
tkz-graph might require using pdflatex instead of latex. In any case, I
could successfully get the graph in a %pdflatex cell -- see graph.png --
but not in a %latex cell.)
