tex-text problem

Wolfgang · June 11, 2006, 11:57am

Hi,

I'm quite new to python and matplotlib, but at least simple graphs work already. But now I tried to use tex for processing labels.

tex, latex, dvipng and ghostscript are in my path. A manual tex-run on the tex file produces a dvi file.

Any help is appreciated
Wolfgang

PS: I'm runnin on WinXP prof

Please try changing line 191 in texmanager.py from this:

command = 'cd %s; latex -interaction=nonstopmode "%s"'\

to this:

command = 'cd "%s"; latex -interaction=nonstopmode "%s"'\

Also, backens/backend_ps.py line 1274 needs to be changed:

command = 'cd "%s"; latex -interaction=nonstopmode "%s"'%(gettempdir(),
latexfile)

as does line 1287:

command = 'cd "%s"; dvips -o "%s" "%s"' % (gettempdir(), psfile, dvifile)

These changes are in svn 2465. Sorry for the trouble.

Darren

Hi,

with some manual adjustments in texmanager.py I get the first tex file processed to an dvi and both files (tex + dvi) are copied into this folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\s0167070\.matplotlib\tex.cache

but now dvipng refuses to do its job:

if exit_status: raise RuntimeError('dvipng was not able to \
RuntimeError: dvipng was not able to process the flowing file:
C:\Documents and Settings\s0167070\.matplotlib\tex.cache\3bb1bc57100b0c65915bdda3a1f60dae.dvi
Here is the full report generated by dvipng:

Settings\s0167070\.matplotlib\tex.cache\3bb1bc57100b0c65915bdda3a1f60dae.dvi": No such file or directory

It seems that the spaces in the temp path produce the error. Is there a way to change the temp dir (beneath in system settings of XP)?

Thanks
Wolfgang

_Darren_Dale1 · June 12, 2006, 12:24am

I'm sorry Wolfgang, but I don't have access to a windows computer at home, and
my next two weeks at work are literally booked from dawn to dusk. I don't
know when I'll get a chance to look into this again. Hopefully someone else
on the list can offer some suggestions.

Hi Darren,

I will try to change my temp path later this day. But I also think, that one problem comes from the fact that I have installed Python not on my C: drive.

Finally I changed in matplotlib/__init__.py the evaluation of $HOME to a path without spaces because all files are transfered to $HOME.matplotlib/tex.cache/ instead of $TEMP

I also had to change in texmanager.py some of the "%s" to %s

I think someone with more experience in programming should check the path handling on windows (regarding to spaces in the path)

I would also suggest that temporary files go into a path which is based on $TMP.

Which LaTeX distribution are you using on windows? TexLive handles
paths much more poorly than MikTeX.

Part of the problem is that DOS doesnt allow the semicolon to delimit multiple
commands. I made a little bit of progress by changing every 'cd "%s"; ...'
to 'cd "%s" & ...'. At that point, dvipng starts complaining about the
dvifile not existing. The frustrating part is that I can copy that exact
command into a dos prompt and dvipng processes the dvi file just fine. I'm
about ready to plead insanity.

Hello Darren,

the & is also in my solution! and I always had to change "%s" to %s
and I also added a 'c:' before the cd because " cd c:\temp\ " is not working when the command is starten from d:

so finally I have:
c: & cd %s & latex -interaction=nonstopmode %s ...

But I thinks this is not enough to get dvipng working, so I've changed the $HOME to a path without spaces.

Wolfgang

I'm attaching two files. They should overwrite the existing texmanager file in
site-packages/matplotlib and the backend_ps file in
site-packages/matplotlib/backends. I would appreciate it if some windows
users trying to get usetex working with mpl-0.87.3 would test these. I'm
really surprised at all this trouble, I guess I've become very far removed
from the windows experience. I dug a windows harddisk out of the back of my
closet and was able to get usetex working with a standard windows XP setup,
so there should be no need to change your $HOME or anything like that.

Thanks,
Darren

$HOME.matplotlib/tex.cache/ instead of $TEMP

I also had to change in texmanager.py some of the "%s" to %s

I think someone with more experience in programming should check the
path handling on windows (regarding to spaces in the path)

I would also suggest that temporary files go into a path which is
based on $TMP.

I have a little time and am trying to fix this bug.

Wolfgang, would you try running the following:

import os
from tempfile import gettempdir
os.system('cd %s & latex -help'% gettempdir())

If that doesnt work, than I need to pass an absolute path/eps_filename to
\includegraphics. The problem is that on windows, the TEMP environment
variable is something like 'C:\\Documents and Settings\\Darren\\Local
Settings\\Temp' or 'C:\\DOCUME~1\\Darren\\LOCALS~1\\TEMP', and
\includegraphics is not able to deal with filenames that have spaces or
tildes (this has been declared a feature, not a bug).

I need advice from some of the mpl gurus. If I can't do the os.system('cd ...)
trick, should I request that windows users either change their temp
environment variable to something like c:\temp, should I request that they
make a new environment variable called mpltemp, or should I just process the
file in the current directory?

Thanks,
Darren

Wolfgang,

Will you please try using these new files? I think they should solve the
problems you were having. Please post some feedback as soon as possible.
Thanks.
