[pstricks] newbie question

[Doris Behrendt]

simon,

first, go to texshop-->typesetting and choose >>tex and dvi<< from the  
drowdown menu; so you don't have to compile from the command line;

second, erase all occurrences of >>truchet<< and try compiling again;

let us know if it works or not :-)
