Dependencies are automatically tracked: one + should be able to compile documents with a one-line Makefile + containing 'include LaTeX.mk'. Complex documents (with multiple + bibliographies, indexes, glossaries, ...) should be correctly managed. + +* figlatex.sty: a LaTeX package to easily insert xfig figures (with + \includegraphics{file.fig}). It can interact with LaTeX.mk so that the + latter automatically invokes transfig if needed. + +* And various helper tools for LaTeX.mk + +Homepage: http://gforge.inria.fr/projects/latex-utils/ +License type: gpl + +INSTALLATION: +============= + +Once generated, the following files need to be installed: +* LaTeX.mk: + This is the Makefile snipset to include into your main Makefile. + To avoid the need to hardcode the path of LaTeX.mk in the 'include' directive + of the Makefile, LaTeX.mk must be installed in a default search directory of + GNUMake such as PREFIX/include, /usr/local/include, /usr/include/, etc. + See your GNUMake documentation for the list of such search directories; +* *.sty, *.cfg + Main LaTeX package files. Should be installed into + TEXMF/tex/latex/latex-make/ where TEXMF is a base of a TeX Directory + Structure for your TeX installation; +* *.py + Helper scripts used by LaTeX.mk. They should be installed into + TEXMF/scripts/latex-make/ +* *.pdf + Documentation that can be installed into + TEXMF/doc/latex/latex-make/ + +REQUIREMENTS: +============= + + In order to work, LaTeX Make requires: + - GNU Make (>= 3.81) + type "make --version" to check + - a relatively recent LaTeX distribution (teTeX 3.0 should work, + TeXLive >= 2005 also) + + If using figlatex, LaTeX Make also needs: + - inkscape (>= 0.48.2) for converting svg files + - transfig (>= 3.2.4) for the fig2dev command + type "transfig -V" to check + - ghostscript that is called by fig2dev + type "gs --version" to check + |
