Can you print $command ? { if ($miktex) { if ($dosish) { $command = "pdfetex &mptopdf" } else { $command = "pdfetex \\&mptopdf" } } else { if ($dosish) { $command = "pdfetex -progname=context &mptopdf" } else { $command = "pdfetex -progname=context \\&mptopdf" } } maybe changing the &mptopdf into "-fmt=mptopdf" works better? (we needed the & because of changes in the (e)fmt switch last year in pdftex, maybe we can drop that now, assuming that everyoen has a recent version) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
