The error message I get from pdfetex is that it can't find the file. > However I must admit that I have not check runperl against this > condition, but that's the first time I hear of this problem. I'll fix > it as needed. It's not a new problem -- I god the same problem the last time I tried (a year or two ago). runperl simply uses the part of the path _after_ the space in the path name. It may be a perl problem, of course -- that it runs the last "token" on the command line; but if runperl escaped whitespace properly, that ought not be a problem...

Sounds good. One less hurdle to conquer during installation :) (BTW: I think fpTeX looks absolutely wonderful -- I didn't mean to sound negative...) > Fabrice -- Magnus Lie Hetland The Anygui Project http://hetland.org http://anygui.org
