ok like TeXshop but .... but  now the problem is if the user ptu  
something on the first line for personnal use, ecause I suppose that   
%!TEX TS-program = latex  must be on the first line.
But  this is a solution

Sorry i make a mistake with the names :
  the steps are : latex --> dvips ---> ps2pdf or pstopdf

The distillers are  pstopdf and ps2pdf not dvitopdf ????

For example, Preview.app  invokes it(pstopdf ) indifferently when  
opening PS and EPS files.

In fact, you are three  Distillers : epstopdf (teTeX's Distiller but  
for eps files) , ps2pdf
(GhostScript's Distiller) and pstopdf (Apple a product from Adobe but  
not the real distiller)

And it's more complicated because ps2pdf is a wrapper

# Convert PostScript to PDF 1.3 (Acrobat 4-and-later compatible).
exec ps2pdfwr -dCompatibilityLevel=1.3 "$@"

And if you transparency or opacity you need to change that 1.4 is  
needing

Some users prefer apple distiller because Apple uses this tools  
(Preview) and if you work with a mac you can think that the tools   
are good ( it's not really the truth but ....).
The good distiller is Adobe distiller but it's not free and the  
others have defaults. But when something goes wrong with one  
distiller you choose the other like in TeXshop..

better one.

can study examples
