Folks

I am making good progress with integrating LaTeX into BlackBox.

1 - Helmut Zinn's suggestion that to run a Command line from within
BlackBox I could use

    HostDialog.Start ('latex' + latexOpts + pathName)

works very well. However one minor point is that having the Command Window
flash up for a fraction of a second is a bit irritating. Does anyone know
how to stop this happening?

2 - I am only using the external programs 'latex' and 'dvipng', part of
the standard LaTeX distribition (MikTeX, http://miktex.org/). All the complexity
of perl, grep, ghostscript, and GladTeX is unnecesary, and is now spinning in my
recycle bin.

Cheers

Robert
