Use in a file manager
You can run LaTeX-X on a file through a file
manager. The latter must then launch, on the
selected file, one of the following commands (the -0 at the end is
important!):
latex-x --1 -view -latex -0
= PostScript visualization
latex-x --1 -view -pdflatex -0
= PDF visualization
with pdflatex
latex-x --1 -view
-pdflatex_pstpdf -0
= PDF visualization
with pdflatex mode pst-pdf
latex-x --1 -view -latex_ps2pdf
-0
= PDF visualization
with avec latex and ps2pdf
latex-x --1 -view -xelatex
-0
= PDF visualization
with xelatex
latex-x --1 -export -latex -0
= Export to PostScript
latex-x --1 -export -pdflatex -0
= Export to PDF with pdflatex
latex-x --1 -export
-pdflatex_pstpdf -0
= Export to PDF with pdflatex mode pst-pdf
latex-x --1 -export
-latex_ps2pdf -0
= Export to PDF avec latex and ps2pdf
latex-x --1 -export -xelatex -0
= Export to PDF with xelatex
latex-x --1 -view -0
= Visualization with choice of format then
latex-x --1 -export -0
= Rxport with choice of format next
Of
course, the way to get the file manager to launch one of these commands
can not be described here because it depends on the manager, and even
the manager version. We will therefore refer to
the documentation of the manager used.
