Try trunning
makempx -tex=latex 2MS6.mp
directly. Maybe that gives a better error message
Best, Taco
This is what I got:
C:\Han\slide>makempx -tex=latex 2MS6.mp
makempx: Need exactly two file arguments.
Try `makempx --help' for more information.
C:\Han\slide>makempx --help
Usage: makempx [-tex[=<program>]|-troff[=<program>]] MPFILE MPXFILE.
If MPXFILE is older than MPFILE, translate the labels from the MetaPost
input file MPFILE to low-level commands in MPXFILE, by running
mpto -tex, tex, and dvitomp
by default; or, if -troff is specified,
mpto -troff, gsoelim | geqn -Tps -d$$ | gtroff -Tps, and dmp.
The current directory is used for writing temporary files. Errors are
left in mpxerr.{tex,log,dvi}.
If the file named in $MPTEXPRE (mptexpre.tex by default) exists, it is
prepended to the output in tex mode.
There is one file called "mpxerr.tex" which contains stuffs like
\mpxshipout% line 156 2MS3.mp
$A$\stopmpxshipout
\mpxshipout% line 157 2MS3.mp
$B$\stopmpxshipout
\mpxshipout% line 158 2MS3.mp
$C$\stopmpxshipout
\mpxshipout% line 159 2MS3.mp
Does this mean anything?
Thanks,
Steve
