[OS X TeX] latexdb & texshop

[Claus Gerhardt]

Latexdb creates two additional files ending in ....tex.pre  
and ....tex.debug, which probably are causing the trouble. Let me  
suggest as possible solution:

Change your latexdbi shell script to

#!/bin/tcsh
# latexdbi

set path= ($path  /usr/local/bin  /usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple- 
darwin-current)

latexdb  "$1"
rm -f "$1.pre"
rm -f "$1.debug"
