The last lines of the log are: "TeXExec | using tex engine xetex TeXExec | using tex format path ./xetex TeXExec | unable to make format due to lack of permissions TeXExec | using mp engine mpost TeXExec | using mps format path . TeXExec | generating mps format metafun This is MetaPost, version 1.504 (kpathsea version 6.0.0) ! I can't open file `metafun'. <*> metafun Please type another input file name: " Does anybody know what can be done about this? (I even do not know how to abort the process other than quitting Terminal.) Incidentally, the PowerMac has not been used between october and now. Thanks in advance.
