Re: [NTG-pdftex] 1.40.4 incoming
Hi Martin,
The latest version of 746 (retry), changed by Heiko himself, is the following.
I've applied it.
Thanks very much. However you have applied the original one. Heiko had updated, according to the opinion by Karl, as follows (patch to the one in the pdftex svn): Best regards, Akira --- tex.ch.orig Mon Jul 09 19:43:46 2007 +++ tex.ch Mon Jul 09 22:56:15 2007 @@ -2218,7 +2218,7 @@ if e=".tex" then show_context; @y if (e=".tex") or (e="") then show_context; -print_ln; print("(Retry if file name is empty."); +print_ln; print("(Retry if file name is empty or CTRL-D to exit."); if (e<>"") then begin print(" Default file extension is `"); print(e); print("'");

Are these meant to be instructions to the user, or statements of intended action ? If (as I suspect) they are instructions to the user, then (IMHO) they should be phrased as such : I suggest -- print_ln; print ("Enter the null string to re-try, or <eof> to exit"); Philip Taylor
