Hi Mike,
Thanks for your suggestions, unfortunately still no luck. I suppose your
suggested adding the rule
into texrc file, right? I actually added it into both texrc and .vimrc, but
still didn't work -- I just can't
generate a .ps file from the .dvi file. Any thoughts on this situation?
Seems like I'm running into a
stubborn case...
Sincerely,
Jin Chen
