Hi Maarten,

;-) One of the fun things in TeX is that one can do as one pleases ;-)

By the way, the work that I finished on the Mac, a digital re-publishing of a book that I happened to have the rights of, is on http://www.johanpolak.nl/

I did that on Windows/Winedt also, no problem.

Thanks for the tip! I installed BBedit now too. I only need the TeXshop editor to give the 'compile' command. Maybe I should try to do this on the command line, if I can find out what that command line option was (brings me back to the good old 4DOS / emTeX times).


Groet!

Frans
