[texworks] Trouble with auto-pst-pdf

[Iwan Setyawan]

Hi Will,

I've tried typesetting the example. It doesn't work. It says Shell
Escape Off. I tried both with the windows command prompt and cygwin
shell. Same result. If it's of any help, this is the console output
from Cygwin shell:

$ pdflatex -shell-escape test4.tex
This is pdfTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.40.3 (Web2C 7.5.6)
 \write18 enabled.
 %&-line parsing enabled.

... and from Windows command prompt:
