I'm not sure about this preamble: osxfonts.sty is an example file =20
from the XeTeX distribution, in the Samples folder, not a part of the =20=
texmf tree. It is used in the other sample file LaTeX-font-=20
access.ltx, which contains the warning:
%%% NOTE that the osxfonts.sty package used here is a quick-and-dirty =20=
hack
%%% and should be replaced by Will Robertson's far more extensive =20
"fontspec" package
%%% (see http://scripts.sil.org/xetex_related)
I would suggest considering that a XeTeX user has always installed =20
the two additional packages fontspec (by Will Robertson) and xunicode =20=
(by Ross Moore), and hence to use a preamble like:
\documentclass[10pt]{article}
\usepackage{color} % for color
\usepackage{amssymb} % for math symbol
\usepackage{amsmath} % for math constructs
\usepackage{fontspec} % for AAT/OT fonts
\usepackage{xunicode} % for Unicode accents
\setromanfont[Mapping=3Dtex-text]{Hoefler Text}
I'm cc'ing this message to the XeTeX list, in case people there have =20
suggestions on the issue.

I have installed xelatex, to test problems.
For color, the problem is that with pdflatex, I was used to globally
set the color by adding
\color[rgb]{red green blue} in the _preamble_. With xelatex, it seems
required to put it in the body of the document. Am I wrong with
pdflatex and should I not put \color[rgb]{...} in the preamble ?
For scaling, it appears that the bounding box that I computed by :
gs -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=3Dbbox -dBATCH -q foo.pdf
fails on pdf files produced by xelatex.

It wasn't that colour that I wrote about yesterday, I just imagined
that the colour selector at the bottom of LaTeXiT would colour the
output. I did not try to set colours in the XeLaTeX document ...

Right, that's what I thought I saw. Particularly when setting the font
size to a high value a hard clipping seemed to happen, but only on the
right. XeTeX uses two steps to convert the TeX file to PDF: first an
extended DVI file is created and then this one is converted to PDF with
a proprietary piece of software, xdv2pdf. Could be this one makes
mistakes ... Jonathan Kew is thinking of producing real DVI output and
then using dvipfdmx to convert this to PDF.
From Wednesday on I might have some more time ...

Subject: enumerate in TeXShop
From: "Dilip Ninan"
Date: Mon, 8 Aug 2005 21:00:20 +0100
Question from a TeXShop/LaTeX novice:
I'm having trouble getting TeXShop to compile a document. The
document has several numbered sentences throughout the paper, that
more or less run in sequence. I was doing this using the
covington.sty package, which works nicely, but now I'm submitting the
paper for something and the editor wants me to do this by labeling
each sentence using \label and then setting the counter by using
enumi and the corresponding \ref. The document will compile if I
keep hitting ``return' each time I get an error message. If I run
LaTeX enough times, I get the desired result: all the right numbers
with all the right sentences. But is there any way to get it to
compile more quickly? (There are around 30 sentences, so I have to
run LaTeX around 30 times to get it to come out right.)
Here is an example of what I'm doing:
\begin{enumerate}
\item Sam should/ought to go to confession, but he's not going to.
\label{should1}
\end{enumerate}
Then later in the document:
\begin{enumerate}
\setcounter{enumi}{\ref{should1}}
\item I should/ought to go to confession, but I'm not going to.\label
{shouldi}
\end{enumerate}
When I try to compile the document I get:
! LaTeX Error: Something's wrong--perhaps a missing \item.
See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
Type H for immediate help.
...
l.58 \item I

Subject: Getting TeXshop to show full pathname in title bar?
From: "Timothy Van Zandt"
Date: Mon, 08 Aug 2005 16:16:33 -0400
Hello.
With some big projects I am often editing files with the same name but
in different directories. Is there any way to get TeXshop to show a full
or at least truncated pathname in the title bar of the document's
window? I noticed that such displaying of the pathname was added
recently to the "Open Recent" menu...but not for the title bar.
thx.

Dick, everyone
Maybe I am missing something, but
While the TeXShop Log window has a very handy "Go To Error" button,
there is no equivalent "Go To Warning" button. This would be very
handy for fixing overfull lines and the like.
Any chance of providing this in the next release?
Best wishes
Ralph

In case you don=B4t know already: one can command-klick the mini =20
document icon in the title bar to see and navigate thru the path.

Are you allowed to keep the value of the counter as in
\newcounter{savectr}
\newcommand{\savectr}[1]{\setcounter{savectr}{\value{#1}}}
\newcommand{\backctr}[1]{\setcounter{#1}{\value{savectr}}}
...
\begin{document}
\begin{enumerate}
\item\label{should:1}
This is~\ref{should:1}
\savectr{enumi}
\end{enumerate}
...
\begin{enumerate}
\backctr{enumi}
\item\label{should:2}
This is~\ref{should:2}
\savectr{enumi}
\end{enumerate}
...
so that you have to compile it only twice to get the references right?
Cheers,
Nestor Aguilera
