Hi everybody,
do not get me wrong about this post, but I was wondering if someone could help me writing this TMscript. Or maybe it is honest to say write this script. The idea is the following:
- I have a big LaTeX project, so I divided the report in several documents. - Let's say: - master.tex - part1.tex - part2.tex - Basically master.tex includes all following documents, so in case I would typeset the master.tex file I would get the whole document. - There is a TM-function which allows me to set the master file in my project, so that typesetting any file (for example part1.tex) actually typesets the master.tex file. - But this takes time so it would be nicer to typeset just the file I am working on right now. - My Idea is: 1) change the first line of part1.tex (and or part2.tex) to %% TM_LATEX_COMMAND%% Head include %% 2) add a line in the master.tex somewhere after \begin{document} : %% TM_LATEX_COMMAND%% Head %% 3) when typesetting the script looks for the line (see (2)). 4a) if there is no "%%TM_LATEX_COMMAND%%Head%%" it will go on like it does right now 4b) if there is the line "%%TM_LATEX_COMMAND%%Head%%" then I takes the lines before " %%TM_LATEX_COMMAND%% Head %% " and puts them on top of the typsetted file. It also adds an \end{document} and then typesets all. - what I do not know is how pdfsync works then, but since I do not know how to write this little script I could not try out.
It would be great if someone could help me or send the website where this is already posted. However, I would also appreciate some helpful comments on how to write the script by myself.
Tanks Christoph
