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.
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
texmfstart texexec --pass=\'-file-line-error -halt-on-error\' hello
Very sly. And the short form also worked:
texexec --pass=\'-file-line-error -halt-on-error\' hello

Hi Aditya
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
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.
