Now, to the issue of names like 10.11.12.13 ... here .13 is the suffix, like it or not, so in principle we then get

10.11.12.log 10.11.12.tuc 10.11.12.pdf

It's not that I use files without (.tex, .mkiv, ...) suffixes, but your 10.11.12.13 example is processed by MkIV without problems:

10.11.12.pdf 10.11.12.tua 10.11.12.log

actually that's also not ok as it should be a .tuc file

LMTX, however doesn't like it:

10.11.pdf 10.11.tua 10.log

...

if not then indeed there is some issue.

According to my tests LMTX doesn't work like you describe it should. i'll check it

(in retrospect tex could better have enforced a suffix and not fallback on .tex but i suppose the usage scenarios were hard to foresee let alone the restart-the-program-time-penalty when you forgot to add .tex) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
