[OS X TeX] TeXShop with two screens

[Jean-Claude DE SOZA]

Bonjour Richard and Scott,

My problem has nothing to do with TeXShop but with the new behavior of OS X. Thanks to Scott to point that every screen has now its own space.

And I found that we can revert to the behavior of Mountain Lion by going to System Preferences > Mission Control and uncheck the last option Screens …

Thank you very much.
