"simpdftex" is a script from gerben's distribution that simulates  
pdftex (using the latex+dvips+gs route). just use "pdflatex ${fbName}".

i don't think the second call does what you intend to do:
the first strips off the path leading to the file as well as the  
".tex" extension, if present.
i guess you want to *add* ".gls" to what you have as "fbName", so you  
could use

set fbName2 = ${fbName}.gls

or something like that.
