[OS X TeX] Typesetting info for TeXShop 2.01 documents

[Bruno Voisin]

Starting to use TeXShop (now 2.01) on Tiger, I'm seeing the following.

The syntax for the typesetting infos at the beginning of TeXShop  
document has changed. However, the instructions at <http:// 
www.uoregon.edu/~koch/texshop/changes.html> or in the included file  
IMPORTANT_README are partly erroneous, in that,  for XeLaTeX, the  
original syntax:

     %&program=xelatex
     %&encoding=UTF-8 Unicode

becomes:

     %!TEX TS-program = xelatex
     %!TEX encoding = UTF-8Unicode

Specifically:

- The space before the "=" in the first line is mandatory (otherwise  
the default pdfeTeX is used). The instructions include this, but the  
mandatory character of the space isn't mentioned.

- There is no space between UTF-8 and Unicode on the second line  
(otherwise the input encoding is considered to be TeXShop's default;  
generally MacOS Roman). The instructions include one.

Hope this helps,

Bruno
