NAME

texi2dvi4a2ps – Compile Texinfo and LaTeX files to DVI or PDF

SYNOPSIS

texi2dvi4a2ps

[OPTION]… FILE…

DESCRIPTION

Run each Texinfo or LaTeX FILE through TeX in turn until all
cross–references are resolved, building all indices. The directory
containing each FILE is searched for included files. The suffix of FILE
is used to determine its language (LaTeX or Texinfo).

Makeinfo is used to perform Texinfo macro expansion before running TeX
when needed.

Operation modes:

–h, ––help: display this help and exit successfully
–v, ––version: display version information and exit successfully
–V, ––verbose: report on what is done
–q, ––quiet: no output unless errors (implies ––batch)
–s, ––silent: same as ––quiet
–D, ––debug: turn on shell debugging (set –x)
–b, ––batch: no interaction
–c, ––clean: remove all auxiliary files
–o, ––output=FILE: leave output in FILE (implies ––clean)

Only one FILE may be specified if `––output’ is used.

TeX tuning:

–@: use @input instead of \input; for preloaded Texinfo
–e, ––expand: force macro expansion using makeinfo
–I DIR: search DIR for Texinfo files
–l, ––language=LANG: specify the LANG of FILE (LaTeX or Texinfo)
–p, ––pdf: use pdftex or pdflatex for processing
–t, ––texinfo=CMD: insert CMD after @setfilename in copy of input file
multiple values accumulate

The values of the BIBTEX, LATEX (or PDFLATEX), MAKEINDEX, MAKEINFO,
TEX (or PDFTEX), and TEXINDEX environment variables are used to run
those commands, if they are set.
