texmfstart/pdftex parameters
Hi all, is there a way to pass parameters from texmfstart texexec to pdftex? I'd like to call pdftex with -file-line-error and -halt-on-error. Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki and more: http://contextgarden.net

--passon=-file-line-error There was a recent thread where Sanjoy had trouble passing two parameters to --passon. I do not remember if that was resolved or not. Aditya

Thanks. From reading the mails I can't see a solution. Perhaps Sanjoy knows one. Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki and more: http://contextgarden.net

I don't know, unfortunately. Hans sent me a proposed fix, but it didn't work. One problem is that passing multiple options is working on Hans's setup, so the problem is elusive. I need to learn a bit of ruby. -Sanjoy `Not all those who wander are lost.' (J.R.R. Tolkien)

Just for the record: I've found a simple solution, which works OK here on MacOS X (should be the same on any unix): texmfstart texexec --pass=\'-file-line-error -halt-on-error\' hello this way (internally) the command looks like --pass='.....' which will be the way it gets passed to texmfstart.
