Dear Ara,
 
thanks for responding.
 
>perhaps?  eg does your pathname have two extensions?
 
No, I've tried that, but actually filename is now "mout.tex". I  wouldn't 
understand why an
extension should be the problem if the first two commands work - they
act on the same file, or nearly ... 
The system should execute 
 
latex mout.tex

to interpret the Latex commands and produce a '.dvi' file
 
dvips mout
 
to create a '.ps' from this file, and finally 
 
gsview32 mout.ps
 
to show the output.
For the first two commands, there is no output in a special window though  -
I use Ruby from Scite and get its output in a subwindow of Scite, but
opening an external application seems to require some trick which I  don't
get .  
It's also not the case that Postscript is opened and closed after 5  msec,
as this is the last command in my script. :(
 
Best regards,
 
AXel
