Maybe I should make turn this into a special, and make a miktex driver.

Has some nice fixes too [buffer problems and better randomizer], i think that mpost from web2c can work ok with miktex. >is this a bug in texexec.pl? texexec can be told not to pass the string (for miktex set MpPassString to "") Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: +31 (0)38 477 53 69 | fax: +31 (0)38 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------
