The --verbose option doesn't change that. Texexec still just shows a usage message. I bet I have to change something in texexec.ini, but I couldn't find it last time I looked. I'll look again. Now by doing "pdfetex \&cont-en test.tex" I'm able to see the example that made me want to upgrade. Hey, Hans! That is very impressive. You were absolutely right when you said, "Got you." How did you do it? It sounded like a hard problem. -- --Ed L Cashin | PGP public key: ecashin@uga.edu | http://noserose.net/e/pgp/
