I compile the pdf always before committing to Github to make sure I am not braking enough. I also installed Texmaker which is an even better editor for Tex files and compiling to pdf.  http://www.xm1math.net/texmaker/ Though so far emacs with pillar mode and compile.sh is more than enough for my needs. Textmate also is good enough.  Thanks Kilon. Good to know. btw, I see that files are generated under that git-clone created.  Being somewhat new to git, when I push back to my fork on github, then issue a pull request to SquareBrackets, what stops the generated files being included ? no only the pier files are under git. you should not add the others. in essence you should git add .pier git add figures/pdf if you change a pdf I noticed that many of the figures are pdf, so I am really curious why this was done and not left as a JPG or PNG?  It may not matter for a book but it seems awkward if a html version is needed at some point. Also I added a .gitignore since `git status` showed way too much irrelevant info to be useful - and the PDF-figures prevent *.pdf being a filter (but *.pier.pdf is an effective alternative for our purpose). and git commit git pull git push Thank for that.  Its good to have a quickstart. I'll read up on them now to learn more. cheers -ben
