Latex + Squeak

Hi,

I use the package Pier-Documentation. It allows me to write a Tex file 
(myfile.tex)

Squeak can it to compile the Tex  file to dvi or pdf (myfile.dvi or 
myfile.pdf)?
Into Squeak, how can I launch a program external  as latex, for example?

Cheers

Re: Latex + Squeak

Have a look at Pier-Math package in
http://source.lukas-renggli.ch/pieraddons, this package enables you to
embed LaTeX formulas into Pier documents. It does so by creating a
LaTeX file, and converting that file using the LaTeX tools to a png
image.

Cheers,
Lukas

Re: Latex + Squeak

The problem is solved.

The package is very interesting. It allows me to do exactly what I want. 
However we must not forget to install OSProcess package. Il is very easy 
to embed Latex formulas into Pier documents: "$$ my formula  $a^b$ is 
nice$$" for example.

  Just a small remark. Into Gentoo GNU Linux, the path of latex program  
is rather   /usr /bin/latex but no /usr/bintex/latex (see initialize 
method of PMMathText). Also, the path of dvipng program is rather 
/usr/bin/dving but no /usr/bintex/dvipng. However  it is easy to change 
this.

Your work is really impressive. I read your book about  Magritte. There 
are still many things that I have not understood.... I try ;-)

cheers
