Reading through newtexexec.rb it seems that it does > not check the ini file. Is this correct? Or am I missing something. Strange. If I run the command for dos command prompt, I get system (mpost .....) executed It seems that texexec is looking at different profiles under cygwin. Or rather, for some reason texexec can not find the correct file in cygwin. I am attaching both log files. There is not much difference there. It seems that I still need to work with cmd rather than bash :-( Any hints will be appreciated.
