The directory +containing each FILE is searched for included files. The suffix of FILE +is used to determine its language ((La)TeX or Texinfo). To process +(e)plain TeX files, set the environment variable LATEX=tex. +.PP +In order to make texi2dvi a drop\-in replacement of TeX/LaTeX in AUC\-TeX, +the FILE may also be composed of the following simple TeX commands. +.TP +`\einput{FILE}' +the actual file to compile +.TP +`\enonstopmode' +same as \fB\-\-batch\fR +.PP +Makeinfo is used to perform Texinfo macro expansion before running TeX +when needed. +.SS "General options:" +.TP +\fB\-b\fR, \fB\-\-batch\fR +no interaction +.TP +\fB\-D\fR, \fB\-\-debug\fR +turn on shell debugging (set \fB\-x\fR) +.TP +\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR +display this help and exit successfully +.TP +\fB\-o\fR, \fB\-\-output\fR=\fIOFILE\fR +leave output in OFILE (implies \fB\-\-clean\fR); +only one input FILE may be specified in this case +.TP +\fB\-q\fR, \fB\-\-quiet\fR +no output unless errors (implies \fB\-\-batch\fR) +.TP +\fB\-s\fR, \fB\-\-silent\fR +same as \fB\-\-quiet\fR +.TP +\fB\-v\fR, \fB\-\-version\fR +display version information and exit successfully +.TP +\fB\-V\fR, \fB\-\-verbose\fR +report on what is done +.SS "TeX tuning:" +.TP +\-@ +use @input instead of \einput for preloaded Texinfo +.TP +\fB\-\-dvi\fR +output a DVI file [default] +.TP +\fB\-e\fR, \fB\-E\fR, \fB\-\-expand\fR +force macro expansion using makeinfo +.TP +\fB\-I\fR DIR +search DIR for Texinfo files +.TP +\fB\-l\fR, \fB\-\-language\fR=\fILANG\fR +specify the LANG of FILE (LaTeX or Texinfo) +.TP +\fB\-\-no\-line\-error\fR +do not pass \fB\-\-file\-line\-error\fR to TeX +.TP +\fB\-p\fR, \fB\-\-pdf\fR +use pdftex or pdflatex for processing +.TP +\fB\-r\fR, \fB\-\-recode\fR +call recode before TeX to translate input +.TP +\fB\-\-recode\-from\fR=\fIENC\fR +recode from ENC to the @documentencoding +.TP +\fB\-\-src\-specials\fR +pass \fB\-\-src\-specials\fR to TeX +.TP +\fB\-t\fR, \fB\-\-command\fR=\fICMD\fR +insert CMD in copy of input file +.TP +or \fB\-\-texinfo\fR=\fICMD\fR +multiple values accumulate +.TP +\fB\-\-translate\-file\fR=\fIFILE\fR +use given charset translation file for TeX +.SS "Build modes:" +.TP +\fB\-\-build\fR=\fIMODE\fR +specify the treatment of auxiliary files [local] +.TP +\fB\-\-tidy\fR +same as \fB\-\-build\fR=\fItidy\fR +.TP +\fB\-c\fR, \fB\-\-clean\fR +same as \fB\-\-build\fR=\fIclean\fR +.TP +\fB\-\-build\-dir\fR=\fIDIR\fR +specify where the tidy compilation is performed; +implies \fB\-\-tidy\fR; +defaults to TEXI2DVI_BUILD_DIRECTORY [.] +.TP +\fB\-\-mostly\-clean\fR +remove the auxiliary files and directories +but not the output +.PP +The MODE specifies where the TeX compilation takes place, and, as a +consequence, how auxiliary files are treated. The build mode +can also be set using the environment variable TEXI2DVI_BUILD_MODE. +.SS "Valid MODEs are:" +.TP +`local' +compile in the current directory, leaving all the auxiliary +files around. This is the traditional TeX use. +.TP +`tidy' +compile in a local *.t2d directory, where the auxiliary files +are left. Output files are copied back to the original file. +.TP +`clean' +same as `tidy', but remove the auxiliary directory afterwards. +Every compilation therefore requires the full cycle. +.SS "Using the `tidy' mode brings several advantages:" +.TP +\- +the current directory is not cluttered with plethora of temporary files. +.TP +\- +clutter can be even reduced using \fB\-\-build\-dir\fR=\fIdir\fR: all the *.t2d +directories are stored there. +.TP +\- +clutter can be reduced to zero using, e.g., \fB\-\-build\-dir=\fR/tmp/$USER.t2d +or \fB\-\-build\-dir=\fR$HOME/.t2d. +.TP +\- +the output file is updated after every succesful TeX run, for +sake of concurrent visualization of the output. In a `local' build +the viewer stops during the whole TeX run. +.TP +\- +if the compilation fails, the previous state of the output file +is preserved. +.TP +\- +PDF and DVI compilation are kept in separate subdirectories +preventing any possibility of auxiliary file incompatibility. +.PP +On the other hand, because `tidy' compilation takes place in another +directory, occasionally TeX won't be able to find some files (e.g., when +using \egraphicspath): in that case use \fB\-I\fR to specify the additional +directories to consider. +.PP +The values of the BIBTEX, LATEX (or PDFLATEX), MAKEINDEX, MAKEINFO, +TEX (or PDFTEX), TEXINDEX, and THUMBPDF environment variables are used +to run those commands, if they are set. Any CMD strings are added +after @setfilename for Texinfo input, in the first line for LaTeX input. +.SH "REPORTING BUGS" +Email bug reports to <bug\-texinfo@gnu.org>, +general questions and discussion to <help\-texinfo@gnu.org>. +Texinfo home page: http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/ +.SH COPYRIGHT +Copyright \(co 2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc. +License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 or later <http://gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html> +.br +This is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it. +There is NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted by law. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +The full documentation for +.B texi2dvi +is maintained as a Texinfo manual.
