Hi Zbigniew,

Thanks for noting that.  I think they are irrelevant to this problem, but I should have stripped them from the list of packages.  Here is a stripped down version.

It’s a silly error concerning whitespace:

You have:

t 2 exp 1 add sqrt 3 div%
t%
1%

which should be

t 2 exp 1 add sqrt 3 div %
t %
1 %


This causes the 3 PostScript object identifiers to be contracted to simply  divt1
which is reported as an unknown operator:

### Saving intermediary ps file /tmp/altpdflatex.48864-1558817756/quicktest.ps as quicktest.ps
### ps2pdf -dCompatibilityLevel=1.5  /tmp/altpdflatex.48864-1558817756/quicktest.ps /tmp/altpdflatex.48864-1558817756/quicktest.pdf
Error: /undefined in divt1



Hope this helps.

Ross

Your package files analysismacros, linalgmacros, alphamacros, mymathmacros, refmacros are all missing, so impossible to try to process the .tex source.

(I tried to look for them at your web page, byt that is currently unvailable.)

I’m confused about what is wrong with the attached code (minimal example from a larger picture) in pstricks.  It crashes, and I can’t decode the console error message.  Probably something stupid, but I am tweaking other code which worked in the past, and a close reading seems to miss what is wrong.
