Grrrr.... Now SLaTeX seems to run fine, in the sense that it doesn't give any errors and says everything is OK. However, somehow it fails to generate .Z* files, so running (PDF)LaTeX afterwards fails saying it can't find the appropriate .Z* file... Any ideas still? BTW I'm running Vista and I've tried unhiding all files and searching for .Z* files, to no avail. It seems it just didn't make them. :-( Bas Noel Welsh wrote: <blockquote cite="mid:c2b7813c0811051348s5aebd371wb2f51f792d241f80@mail.gmail.com" type="cite"> <pre wrap="">On Wed, Nov 5, 2008 at 9:06 PM, Bas Steunebrink <a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:bass@cs.uu.nl"><bass@cs.uu.nl></a> wrote: </pre> <blockquote type="cite"> <pre wrap="">Ah great, thanks a lot for the quick replies! :-) On my home computer it does succeed in running LaTeX but hangs immediately on \begin{document}, which I think is quite odd.... </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap="">... </pre> <blockquote type="cite"> <pre wrap="">Any ideas what might be the problem here? </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap=""> I don't know enough Latex to say what is causing that error, but I there is simple debugging you can do to find out if the problem is with latex or slatex: cut out the slatex specific parts and see if works w/ plain latex. I suggest this because I once had an issue with unprintable characters in a slatex file causing problems (unprintable meaning I couldn't see them in my editor) and it wasn't until I ruled out slatex as the problem that I made progress towards a solution.
