Hi

I tried that this morning and it didn't work. So I then removed the
whole teTeX directory from /usr/local and did a reinstall with the
option of setting symlinks. Now I can
run latex from the terminal and I can do altpdflatex from the
terminal and it creates a dvi and seems to run OK. I reinstalled
TeXShop to be sure and I can do pdflatex but when I run with the TeX
+ Ghostscript option nothing happens. Nothing in the console. It just
sits.

Any thoughts ?



Thanks - Michael
