This is rather Unix which can also be used under Windows ;-) I had to change texexec.tmp in something different since texexec insisted to create texexec.tmp itself ... Then it worked. How about adding a check whether cont-?? exists before calling texexec? (de, cz etc. are also missing) Plus: How about running texexec --once and optaining the version number for texutil by running texutil --version? The texexec version could be inserted directly which could save some additional µs.
