I tested in with fptex/windows; later i will make it miktex ready (waiting for input from mr bigfoot); linux works here, but probably also needs some work.
I thought I'd give this a try on Mac OS X. At first, exampler.rb wasn't getting the path variables correctly, so I made this change in context/ ruby/xmpl/base.rb, line 686: resolve_tex_data(name,"-expand-var '$#{name.upcase}'") # added single quotes around the environment variable, because # the main shell was trying to expand the variable I've never touched Ruby before, but that seemed to get example correctly listening on 127.0.0.1:8061. I'm running into odd problems with Acrobat Reader, though. I try filling out, say, calcmath.pdf with a simple formula, but the "Go Ahead" button gives the error: "Form submission is not allowed in this document." That seems wrong, especially when I examine the Document Security -> Form Field Fill-in or Signing and it says "Allowed." It's starting to look like I need to use Acrobat as a web plugin before I can submit any forms. But it's not available as a browser plugin for Mac OS X yet... Has anyone else encountered this? Solved it? eXaMpLe seems really exciting... adam -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.
