NAME

texi2dvi - print Texinfo documents

SYNOPSIS

texi2dvi [_O_P_T_I_O_N]... _F_I_L_E...

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:

--bb, ----bbaattcchh
no interaction
--cc, ----cclleeaann
remove all auxiliary files
--DD, ----ddeebbuugg
turn on shell debugging (set --xx)
--hh, ----hheellpp
display this help and exit successfully
--oo, ----oouuttppuutt=_O_F_I_L_E
leave output in OFILE (implies ----cclleeaann); Only one input FILE may be specified in this case
--qq, ----qquuiieett
no output unless errors (implies ----bbaattcchh)
--ss, ----ssiilleenntt
same as ----qquuiieett
--vv, ----vveerrssiioonn
display version information and exit successfully
--VV, ----vveerrbboossee
report on what is done

TeX tuning:

-@
use @input instead of \input; for preloaded Texinfo
--ee, --EE, ----eexxppaanndd
force macro expansion using makeinfo
--II DIR
search DIR for Texinfo files
--ll, ----llaanngguuaaggee=_L_A_N_G
specify the LANG of FILE (LaTeX or Texinfo)
--pp, ----ppddff
use pdftex or pdflatex for processing
--rr, ----rreeccooddee
call recode before TeX to translate input characters
--tt, ----ccoommmmaanndd=_C_M_D
insert CMD in copy of input file
or ----tteexxiinnffoo=_C_M_D
multiple values accumulate

The values of the BIBTEX, LATEX (or PDFLATEX), MAKEINDEX, MAKEINFO, TEX (or PDFTEX), TEXINDEX, and THUMBPDF environment variables are used to run those commands, if they are set. Any CMD strings are added after @setfilename for Texinfo input, in the first line for LaTeX input.
