Process a basic LATEX file:
> latex sample2e.tex
# Preview the result online:
> xdvi sample2e.dvi
Create a PostScript file for printing or display:
> dvips sample2e.dvi -o sample2e.ps
# Create a PDF file instead of DVI; this processes the .tex file and writes PDF directly:
> pdflatex sample2e.tex
# Comments start with % and continue to the end of the line.
# Blank lines are ignored.
# A \ at the end of a line acts as a continuation character, i.e., the next line is appended. Whitespace at the beginning of continuation lines is not ignored.
# Each remaining line has the form:
variable[.progname] [=] value
where the ‘=’ and surrounding whitespace are optional.
# The variable name may contain any character other than whitespace, ‘=’, or ‘.’, but sticking to ‘A-Za-z_’ is safest.
If you specify any filename components after the ‘//’, only subdirectories with matching components are included. For example, ‘/a//b’ expands into directories /a/1/b, /a/2/b, /a/1/1/b, and so on, but not /a/b/c or /a/1.
Multiple ‘//’ constructs in a path are possible, but ‘//’ at the beginning of a path is ignored.
The following list summarizes the special characters in Kpathsea configuration files.
: Separator in path specification; at the beginning or the end of a path it substitutes the default path expansion.
; Separator on non-Unix systems (acts like :).
$ Variable expansion.
~ Represents the user’s home directory.
{...} Brace expansion.
// Subdirectory expansion (can occur anywhere in a path, except at its beginning).
% Start of comment.
\ Continuation character (allows multi-line entries).
!! Search only database to locate file, do not search the disk.
