Hello,
dvips: cd '/var/zope/var/LatexWiki/'; /usr/local/teTeX/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu/dvips -z -o 'SandBox Axiom Emacs Mode.ps' 'SandBox Axiom Emacs Mode.dvi' This is dvips(k) 5.95a Copyright 2005 Radical Eye Software (www.radicaleye.com) /usr/local/teTeX/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu/dvips: ! DVI file can't be opened.
The problem is that the 'dvips' does not allow spaces in file names.
I have just taken an arbitrary foo.dvi and said cp foo.dvi 'SandBox Axiom Emacs Mode.dvi' dvips -z -o 'SandBox Axiom Emacs Mode.ps' 'SandBox Axiom Emacs Mode.dvi' (The last thing is **exactly** as described in the error above.) I get a .ps file (with spaces) on my Debian Sarge Linux box. So if dvips is called with the quotation marks then that should be fine.
I suppose it is confusing.
A "pamphlet file" on mathaction consists of two parts: a "document" part that contains the noweb source which will be rendered as an attached pdf, dvi, or ps file; and a "structured text" part that looks like other non-pamphlet pages on the wiki: document part + structured text part Both parts are optional but either one or the other (or both) must be present.
Bill, that is, maybe worth another entry (AxiomWikiPageTypePamphlet or PamphletPageTypeAxiomWiki or both?) on http://wiki.axiom-developer.org/SandBoxGlossary? Or better create a new page with a good first paragraph that can go automatically into the glossary.
http://wiki.axiom-developer.org/210PamphletSupportOnMathAction under "Revised Design".
Perfectly well hidden. ;-) Ralf
