Help to write a script or program to automatic execute and link input file data
Output file template format
Code:
<input_file_name>a</input_file_name>
<total_length_size>b</total_length_size>
<log_10_length_size>c</log_10_length_size>

Input_file_1 (eg. sample.txt)
Code:
SDFSDGDGSFGRTREREYWW

Parameter:
a is equal to the input file name
b is equal to the total length of input file
c is equal to the log10 of total length of input file

Desired output file
Code:
<input_file_name>sample.txt</input_file_name>
<total_length_size>20</total_length_size>
<log_10_length_size>1.301029996</log_10_length_size>

I got a standard output file template format and plan to generate an output file based on the data detail from input file.
Because I got long list of different input file which shared the share output file template format.
Thus I plan to write a program or shell script to calculate and execute the data detail from input file and link the result to the output file template.

latex2dvi

LATEX2DVI(1p)						User Contributed Perl Documentation					     LATEX2DVI(1p)

NAME

       latex2dvi - script to convert LaTeX file to DVI

USAGE

	 latex2dvi [OPTIONS] [-o output] [sourcefile]

DESCRIPTION

       "latex2dvi" is a simple script to invoke the "LaTeX::Driver" module to convert a LaTeX file to DVI (TeX's device independent output
       format).

OPTIONS

       "-output=FILE"
	   specifies that the formatted file should be written to "FILE".  If this option is not specified, or is specified as ""-"" then the file
	   will be written to standard output, otherwise if an input file is specified then the it will be formatted in place and the output file
	   will have the same name as the input file, but with the original extension replaced with ".dvi".

       "-tt2"
	   specifies that the source document should be taken to be a Template Toolkit template and processed through that before being fed to the
	   "LaTeX::Driver" module for latex formatting.

       "-define=NAME=VALUE"
	   defines the template variable NAME to have the value VALUE.	Multiple template variables may be defined and these are passed to the
	   Template Toolkit processing stage (they are ignored if the "-tt2" option is not specified).
