When I run texexec against a file with lots (101) chapters plus sections the messages to the console documenting each such subdivision seem to be slowing down the compilation. Is there a switch to suppress all the printout?

To make c.pdf from c.tex I use $> texexec --pdf --silent c Sometimes, if I'm sure about c.tex, under Linux i can write $> texexec --pdf --batch --silent c &>/dev/null Warning: --batch run until end, so I can make a bad pdf if c is wrong. I can do also $> texexec --pdf --silent c &>myout but if c.tex file is wrong, texexec can stop itself and wait from a prompt, and I can think that texexec is still running. (in this situation, if I hit 'q' I will enter in batch-mode; with ctrl-d I abort texexec. myout collect standard out and error) This can be a quick way to make a pdf, but sure not safe. luigi
