Tex For Os X With Pdflatex

  1. Os X Download
From reading the forums and groups, I gather that a lot of us miss the 'download on the fly' feature offered by MiKTeX. I've written a script that should allow us to do just that. Make sure you have python (most OS X and linux distributions provide it by default; if not, you can get either the 2 or 3 version from here), then run the command

' It should be either pdfLaTeX or XeLaTeX. An easy-to-install open source TeX distribution for MacOSX. It is essentially gwTeX plus XeTeX, with a simple GUI installer and a few extra applications.

or, for python 3,

instead of 'lualatex' or 'pdflatex'. The current options are:

Setting this command within your favourite editor will allow you to download packages on the fly. The script defaults to PdfLaTeX with arguments '-synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode'.
As of the Sep 27 version, the script should be compatible with either python 2 or 3. It depends strongly on the TeX Live Package Manager (tlmgr), so please make sure you are using at least TeX Live 2010. It should resolve all missing included packages and a fair number of missing fonts. It was written on Ubuntu 10.04 and should work on all Linux systems; the Sep 26th version should also work on OS X (but hasn't been tested as of this posting).TexPdflatex
Any comments, suggestions, or bug reports are appreciated, and I hope you enjoy.

Updates:
  • September 19, 2011: Added options and changed name (lualatexonfly was no longer an accurate description).
  • September 24, 2011: Core functionality remains unchanged, but a lot of minor improvements!
    1. Now displays output from the compiler, as well as allowing the user to interact with the compiler (i.e. interaction=nonstopmode is no longer your only option).
    2. Now inherits the compiler's exit code (so that programs depending on it work more consistently)
    3. Slightly improved messages for user.
    4. Script now fails more gracefully under certain circumstances.
    5. SHOULD now work on OS X (need someone to actually test!)
  • September 25, 2011: Minor code restructuring and bugfixes from the Sep 24th version, but most importantly:
    1. Changed the option --engine/-e to --compiler/-c. (It's more intuitive, and we'll make sure not to use the compiler module!)
  • September 26, 2011: Fixed OS X package downloading bug. Still needs testing, however.
  • September 27, 2011: Script should now be compatible with python 2 (my best guess is: python 2.4+)! The #!/usr/bin/env line now calls 'python' rather than 'python3'.
  • October 1, 2011: Version 1.00 released! Please note:
    • Default compiler is now pdflatex, to cater to the mainstream user. However, this and the default arguments can now easily be changed at the top of the script.
    We also have several improvements:
    1. Privilege escalation is now graphical (except for failsafes) and only happens if we need it.
    2. New options, --texlive_bin=LOCATION and --terminal_only (e.g. when you only have a terminal interface). The former allows the script to work on local installs, even when you don't have access to sudo.
    3. OS X support should be solidified (though field testing still requested).
    4. Code cleanup.
  • October 3, 2011: Version 1.10
    1. kdesudo added to list of permission escalators
    2. Can now provide verbal updates via platform's speech synthesizer. This can be turned toggled via --speech_when=always/installing/failed/some combination.
  • October 4th, 2011: Version 1.2. Script was largely changed from an object-oriented to functional style, which here makes a bit more sense. Minor fixes.
