I am trying to pass a additional argument to texi2dvi, for example to use
the aux-directory. Looks like this is not possible via options:
options(texi2dvi='texi2dvi
--tex-option="-aux-directory=auxdir"')
texi2dvi(file = "GBPL3.tex", pdf = TRUE)
#Error in system(paste(shQuote(texi2dvi), "--version"), intern = TRUE)
:
# '"texi2dvi
--tex-option=\"-aux-directory=auxdir\""' not found
Because --version come in the way, and extra is there, but not really used.
extra <- ""
#### ??? --version does not like tex-options
ver <- system(paste(shQuote(texi2dvi), "--version"),
intern = TRUE)
if (length(grep("MiKTeX", ver[1L]))) {
texinputs <- c(texinputs0, Rtexinputs, Rbstinputs)
texinputs <- gsub("\\", "/", texinputs, fixed
= TRUE)
paths <- paste("-I", shQuote(texinputs))
extra <- paste(extra, paste(paths, collapse = " "))
}
Is there any other workaround beside copy/change/rename/paste of texi2dvi?
