Hi all,
is there a way to pass parameters from texmfstart texexec to pdftex?
I'd like to call pdftex with -file-line-error and -halt-on-error.

--passon=-file-line-error
There was a recent thread where Sanjoy had trouble passing two
parameters to --passon. I do not remember if that was resolved or not.

Thanks. From reading the mails I can't see a solution. Perhaps Sanjoy
knows one.

I don't know, unfortunately. Hans sent me a proposed fix, but it
didn't work. One problem is that passing multiple options is working
on Hans's setup, so the problem is elusive. I need to learn a bit of
ruby.

Just for the record: I've found a simple solution, which works OK here
on MacOS X (should be the same on any unix):
texmfstart texexec --pass=\'-file-line-error -halt-on-error\' hello
this way (internally) the command looks like --pass='.....' which will
be the way it gets passed to texmfstart.
