 Thanks for that fix. I have decided to use prog_cflags instead of
 CPPFLAGS, but that's a minor point.

I tried prog_cflags first, but it's not actually used anywhere.  And would
have required more teTeX deep magic than I know at this point.

Web2C 7.3.4: tex -fmt

2001-11-28 Thread Reinhard Kotucha

Hi,
I'm using the latest teTeX beta on Linux.

tex -fmt=latex filename results in a fatal format file error.

$ tex -fmt=latex mpx15542.tex 
This is TeX, Version 3.14159 (Web2C 7.3.4)
(Fatal format file error; I'm stymied)

Putting the line
%latex
into the file produces the same error message.

latex mpx15542.tex works.

Regards,
  Reinhard

Microsoft isn't the answer. Microsoft is the question, and the answer is NO.

 Hi Olaf,

 You've either got two different latex formats, where the two
 cases differ in which one they find, or tex and latex end up at
 different binaries (or a combination of both).

 Use the --kpathsea-debug=-1 flag to find out where the format
 files are found.

 Yes, I just see that latex is elatex.  Seems to be quite dangerous.
 Normally one can avoid the %format line but makempx needs it since it
 always calls tex.  It's probably not a good idea to fool tex about its
 name.

Not entire certain whether it is in 7.3.4, but mpost has gotten a flag
that allows you specify the TeX program to use on the command line.
