Re: [OS X TeX] Non–Recovery from Error

[Jean Jeener]

The "Trash Aux. Files" button is available at the right top of the console window that opens automatically whenever you typeset. I use it very often, usually to recover from the problem that you mention.

As a simple example of the behavior, suppose I forget a $ sign in an in–line expression within Foucault.tex. TexShop shows me the error in a Console window, of course. But, when I correct the error, save the source, and try to compile again, I still get and error albeit a different one:

Clearly, something is hosed in Foucault.tex but I have no idea what it could be.
