[TxMt] pdfLaTeX, b4

[Brad Miller]

The upgrade went very smoothly, I chose the expert mode install and 
accepted all the defaults.

Now I'm almost ecstatic about  the PDF LaTeX command :-)

Allan, here is another case where a project specific variable would be 
extremely handy.  Since I almost always work with multiple files for my 
latex projects I would really love to be able to specify a main file, 
or root file and have pdflatex run on that file rather than 
$TM_FILEPATH.  Obviously I can switch buffers to the main file and hit 
F3 but thats not as convenient.

I suppose this makes error handling more difficult though...

Actually I just tried running from my main file with an error to see 
what would happen.... TextMate and the HTML preview window crashed. :-(
