I have been using Texworks for some time now with great appreciation.
Thanks Jonathan, Stefan and others!
I am trying to configure Texworks to use Asymptote as a tool (under
Windows XP). The command should be
asy.exe -batchView -tex pdflatex filename
which works fine when I run it from the command line.
My current configuration (from tools.ini) is:
[009]
name=Asymptote
program=asy.exe
arguments=-batchView, "-tex pdflatex", %fullname
showPdf=true
The path has been set in Texworks preferences as C:/Program Files/Asymptote
The error message is:
asy: unknown option -- tex pdflatex
I have also tried inserting a = sign as in:
arguments=-batchView, "-tex=pdflatex", %fullname
but then I get error:
error: could not load module '%fullname'
Has anyone had succes in configuring Asymptote as a tool? If not, can
anyone give advice?
Thanks
Jannie
