This is nice. I enjoy the minimalist approach of simply connecting an
editor and previewer through a TeX engine that remains largely
invisible. It's working fine for me, except the ps previewing is
messed up somehow. I got the stuff below on the terminal:

From this I gather that dvips isn't launching correctly? But I don't
