Subject: texexec command line parameters (help)
Date: Wed, 11 Jul 2007 23:40:41 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <52227.62.251.0.62.1184190041.squirrel@webmail.hccnet.nl> (raw)

I am experimenting with the various texexec command line options,
but it is a bit confusing.

I want to minimize the number of runs and suppress as much of the messages
as possible.

I tried (windows standalone context) :

1) texmfstart --pdf --runs=1 --silentmode texfile.tex

This still gave 3 runs with all the Context messages displayed.

After a bit of experimenting it turns out that I have to use

2) texmfstart --pdf texfile.tex --runs=1 --silentmode

It works, but I am not sure what the correct way is for the other options.
The manual mtexexec.pdf (a bit outdated) says I have to use method 1).
Also the Wiki page http://wiki.contextgarden.net/TeXExec suggest method 1).
Running texexec --help --all does not mention the order in which these
parameters should be specified.

TIA

Wim Neimeijer
