Hello,
First time poster here - nice to meet you everyone!
I have a problem setting up custom latex commmands. For example, I'm trying to have a command to run pdflatex specifically on the file main.tex in the current directory (this should work everyone, so there are no projects involved in my query)
The way I do it is I just copy the standard geany command, and replace "%f" with "main.tex", as in the screenshot here for the command "make main.tex": https://maths.lancs.ac.uk/grabows1/web/files/1.png
However I never get anywhere with it - if I run the command the compiler window just lists the command like in this screenshot: https://maths.lancs.ac.uk/grabows1/web/files/2.png and nothing ever happens.
This is the behaviour I seem to always end up with no matter where exactly I put the custom command, or what command exactly is used, as long as it involes pdflatex.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Best, Lukasz
