texexec --mode=xxx --mode=yyy

texexec --mode=xxx --mode=yyy

[Peter Münster]

Hello,

is it possible to make "texexec --mode=xxx --mode=yyy" behave the same as
"texexec --mode=xxx,yyy" ?

I need it, because I have a server that automatically generates pdf-files
via "texexec --mode=xxx ..." and the rest of the command-line can be
anything found in the tex-fileheader (for example another --mode=yyy).

Cheers, Peter

setupmodes (and therefore the commandline option) does accent comma separated lists

Hello Hans,

the question is, if you could modify texexec to behave the same way, when
used with these 2 command-lines:
1.) texexec --mode=xxx --mode=yyy file
2.) texexec --mode=xxx,yyy file

Imagine a command (an alias) my-texexec = "texexec --mode=xxx" that is used
for example like this:
my-texexec --mode=yyy file
Then, the mode=xxx gets overwritten...

Cheers, Peter

i can add support for modes to the ctx file feature (ctx files control 
texexec)

All right. I've just seen, that "texexec --modes=xxx --mode=yyy" works as I
want. Can I rely on it for the future?

That would be nice too.
