Dakota Wicker (ID: 000000911ca9572a) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 12/09/2019 I'm sure it was working in 2014. But it's just not now. I tried one of the above examples at http://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~uno/klr-err.tex and it just downloaded the tex. Didn't even open it. I also opened a local file and it did not compile and there wasn't even a section for it.

Bartholomew Price (ID: 00000007874733ca) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 03/20/2017 Not working 19 March 2017. I can see the TeX source on the left-hand pane when viewing http://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~uno/klr-err.tex but the right-hand pane only shows: 404 Not Found / nginx/1.6.2
