Thus, \f(CW\*(C`texfot\*(C'\fR works +with any engine and any command line options. +.PP +\&\f(CW\*(C`texfot\*(C'\fR does not look at the log file or any other possible output +file(s); it only looks at standard output from the command. +.PP +The messages shown are intended to be those which probably deserve some +action by the author: error messages, overfull and underfull boxes, +undefined citations, missing characters from fonts, etc. +.SH "FLOW OF OPERATION" +.IX Header "FLOW OF OPERATION" +Here is the order in which lines of output are checked: +.IP "1." 4 +If the ``next line'' needs to be printed (see below), print it. +.IP "2." 4 +Otherwise, if the line matches the built-in list of regexps to ignore, +or any user-supplied list of regexps to ignore (given with \f(CW\*(C`\-\-ignore\*(C'\fR, +see below), in that order, ignore it. +.IP "3." 4 +Otherwise, if the line matches the list of regexps for which the next +line (two lines in all) should be shown, set the ``next line'' flag for +the next time around the loop and show this line. Examples are the +usual \f(CW\*(C`!\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`filename:lineno:\*(C'\fR error messages, which are generally +followed by a line with specific detail about the error. +.IP "4." 4 +Otherwise, if the line matches the list of regexps to show, show it. +.IP "5." 4 +Otherwise, ignore this line. +.PP +Once a particular check matches, the program moves on process the next +line. +.PP +Don't hesitate to peruse the source to the script, which is essentially +a straightforward loop matching against the different regexp lists as +above. You can see all the messages in the different categories in the +source. +.PP +Incidentally, although nothing in this basic operation is specific to +TeX engines, all the regular expressions included in the program are +specific to TeX. So in practice the program isn't useful except with +TeX engines, although it would be easy enough to adapt it (if there was +anything else as verbose as TeX to make that useful). +.SH "OPTIONS" +.IX Header "OPTIONS" +The following are the options to \f(CW\*(C`texfot\*(C'\fR itself (not the TeX engine +being invoked; consult the TeX documentation or the engine's \f(CW\*(C`\-\-help\*(C'\fR +output for that). The first non-option terminates \f(CW\*(C`texfot\*(C'\fR's option +parsing, and the remainder of the command line is invoked as the TeX +command, without further parsing. For example, \f(CW\*(C`texfot \-\-debug tex +\&\-\-debug\*(C'\fR will output debugging information from both \f(CW\*(C`texfot\*(C'\fR and +\&\f(CW\*(C`tex\*(C'\fR. +.PP +Options may start with either \- or \-\-, and may be unambiguously +abbreviated.

It was too easy to lose warnings I +needed to see in the mass of unvarying and uninteresting output from +TeX, such as all the style files being read and all the fonts being +used. I wanted to see all and only those messages which actually needed +some action by me. +.PP +I found some other programs of a similar nature, the \f(CW\*(C`silence\*(C'\fR LaTeX +package, and plenty of other (La)TeX wrappers, but it seemed none of +them did what I wanted. Either they read the log file (I wanted the +online output only), or they output more or less than I wanted, or they +required invoking TeX differently (I wanted to keep my build process +exactly the same, definitely including the TeX invocation, which can get +complicated). Hence I finally went ahead and wrote this. +.PP +Here are some keywords if you want to explore other options: +texloganalyser, pydflatex, logfilter, latexmk, rubber, arara, and +searching for \f(CW\*(C`log\*(C'\fR at . +.PP +\&\f(CW\*(C`texfot\*(C'\fR is written in Perl, and runs on Unix, and does not work on +Windows. (If by some chance anyone wants to run this on Windows, please +make your own fork; I'm not interested in supporting it.) +.PP +The name comes from the \f(CW\*(C`trip.fot\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`trap.fot\*(C'\fR files that are part +of Knuth's trip and trap torture tests, which record the online output +from the programs. I am not sure what \*(L"fot\*(R" stands for in trip and +trap, but I can pretend that it stands for \*(L"filter online transcript\*(R" in +the present case\ :). +.SH "AUTHORS AND COPYRIGHT" +.IX Header "AUTHORS AND COPYRIGHT" +This script and its documentation were written by Karl Berry and both are +released to the public domain.
