SUMMARY
This discussion focuses on configuring Winshell to compile Asymptote files alongside TeX documents. The user successfully added the Asymptote package to their LaTeX setup, enabling the generation of .asy files from the asy environment. However, they encountered issues compiling these files into .eps or .pdf formats directly through Winshell. The problem was identified as being related to spaces in filenames, which hindered the compilation process.
