rlatex
rlatex(1) General Commands Manual rlatex(1)
NAME
rlatex -- Wrapper to run LaTeX/jadeTeX multiple times as needed
SYNOPSIS
[env LATEXPRG=latex-binary ] rlatex [latex-document]
Description
rlatex applies LaTeX or another LaTeX-based macro package (most notably jadetex, pdflatex, or pdfjadetex) to a given document, as many suc-
cessive times as needed.
It checks the output of a LaTeX pass, and launches a new pass when it notices specific strings which notify that the document's processing
has not been finished.
Caveats
This version is mostly tuned for jadetex, and may cause some problems when using pure LaTeX. This ought to be fixed some day.
