TeX Live Manager Shell ====================== to be written TODO & BUGS ------------ * need to restart after self update * installation from shell - command init-location Description ----------- after starting, tlmgr shell echos out the protocol version $ tlmgr shell protocol NNN where NNN is a natural number, increasing when some commands are added, changed. Question: Handling of settings: e.g., how to mimic --repository and how to distinguish it from settings to be saved into the tlpdb. (--repository is used only for one incantation, but not saved into tlpdb) Commands: --------- * set sets some variables not to be saved into the tlpdb set repository ... == --repository set debug-translation 1 == --debug-translations set machine-readable 1 == --machine-readable set no-execute-actions 1 == --no-execute-actions set require-verification 0|1 == --(no-)require-verification set verify-downloads 0|1 == --(no-)verify-downloads * quit|end|byebye ends the session * load local|remote loads the local or remote database the remote tlpdb is determined by either the setting in the loaded local tlpdb, or by the "repository" setting (see above) * save saves the local tlpdb (this is also done by several actions) All other actions are converted to commands and behave in the absolut same way.
