Subject: mtx-texworks.lua can't find TeXworks on linux
Date: Thu, 19 Nov 2009 18:39:27 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091119163927.GA7424@khaled-laptop> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 626 bytes --]
Running it gives:
$ mtxrun -script texworks -start
MTXrun | unable to locate TeXworks
Though I've texworks on my path:
$ which texworks
/usr/bin/texworks
I found that the file.split_path(os.getenv("PATH")) call returns a table
with single member containing the full PATH variable (it assumes it is a
semicolon separated list, but on linux it is a colon separated list).
Even after getting around this, the executable name it is looking for is
'TeXworks' while it should be 'texworks'.
Regards,
Khaled
