[TxMt] Re: Latex2 bundle "Enter file name" prompt

[Hans Taktmann]

Peter,

thank you very much for your answer. I guess, your suggestion is  
right: I think some of my input files, namely my preamble file, do not  
reside at their TeXLive default location, or wherever TeX expect them  
to live. This, if I remember correctly, used to be a problem that  
could be fixed with some command line magic. Is this true?

Right now, my input files reside at: ~/Library/texmf/tex/latex/misc/ .

Any hint, how to tell Latex2 to look there for stuff?

My typical latex file looks (very boringly) like this:

http://pastie.textmate.org/private/1mgqlt1jymp8o76zxsyafw

So, the file "praewide_TM" is in the folder ~/Library/texmf/tex/latex/ 
misc/.

Thanks again for your help!

Best,
Hans
