LaTeX::CatSuit::FilterProgram
use LaTeX::CatSuit::FilterProgram; LaTeX::CatSuit::FilterProgram->execute(format => $format);
This module is not intended to be used except by the programs latex2pdf, latex2ps and latex2dvi that are included in the LaTeX::CatSuit distribution. It implements the guts of those filter programs.
latex2pdf
latex2ps
latex2dvi
execute(%params)
This is the only method. It implements the guts of the filter programs, gathering the parameters for the LaTeX::CatSuit object constructor from the command line options, along with the options passed from the calling script, which should be the format option. Having constructed a driver object it then runs the driver.
LaTeX::CatSuit
If the -tt2 option is specified then the source document is taken to be a Template Toolkit template and a Template object is constructed and the template processed through that before being fed to the LaTeX::CatSuit module for latex formatting. Template variables may defined with the -define option and these are passed to the Template Toolkit processing stage (they are ignored if the -tt2 option is not specified).
-tt2
-define
The module invokes the LaTeX::CatSuit module and optionally the Template module. Any errors from those modules are propogated outwards.
Template
The module invokes the latex family of programs via the LaTeX::CatSuit module. Those programs have their own set of environment variables and configuration files.
The module requires that the Template Toolkit is installed for the -tt2 option.
None known.
