You can run mathgen with the --dir=/foo/bar
option, which will leave the source files in the /foo/bar
directory (or --dir=.
for the current directory). It will then attempt to run pdflatex on them, which will fail if you don't have it installed or are missing packages, but you could just ignore the error; the source files will still be there.
The option --mode=raw --output=file.tex
will write the LaTeX source to file.tex
and not attempt to run pdflatex at all, but it doesn't output the .bib
file.
If you want to add such an option properly, it would just be a matter of having the program exit right after: https://github.com/neldredge/mathgen/blob/12f5e6056fd60fcfff530da8ffda846ee15f9549/mathgen.pl#L355
Ty 😃 it helps
To avoid user to download extra, un-necessary Latex packages, is it possible that MathGen just generates the Latex files with Perl and end the job? That'd be nice.
