Hi, I'm on my phone right now, but the log files are in default.db_media/_latex. They will help debugging the issue.
I assume the pstricks package is installed?

Ideas? I have successfully added cards to Mnemosyne with LaTeX formatting for basic inline mathematical equations (using MacTeX install). Now I would like to add some nice plots so I researched the use of the pstricks package. Per the various docs I found, I updated the LaTeX preamble in Mnemosyne/config.py with: \usepackage{pdftricks} \begin{psinputs} \usepackage{pstricks} \usepackage{multido} \end{psinputs} I also updated the LaTeX command to include the switch for shell-execution: latex = "/Library/TeX/texbin/latex -output-format=dvi -interaction=nonstopmode -shell-escape" I opened some LaTeX formatted cards in Mnemosyne, and they open with no problem. To test the new package, I create a card front with: <latex>A Grid!</latex> and a card back with : <latex> \begin{pdfpic} \begin{pspicture} [showgrid=true] (3,3) \pscircle[linecolor=blue,doubleline=true,doublecolor=red,doublesep=12pt] (1.5,1.5){1.5} \pscircle*[linecolor=green] (1.5,1.5){O.25} \end{pspicture} \end{pdfpic} </latex> The example is from LaTex Graphics Companion by Goosens et al. When I preview the card, I don't get any errors, just a blank card back. I considered that maybe shell-escape isn't working because it is being invoded by Mnemosyne and not by me, so at my peril I ran sudo Mnemosyne but there was no change. Any ideas? Also, what is the working directory used for LaTeX compilation? Perhaps there is a log file I can dissect. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "mnemosyne-proj-users" group.
