Tex Engine configuration for ptex (ptex2pdf)

[bagustris]

Expected behavior

Tell us what should happen:

I used ptex engine for latex file. To convert to pdf, I often use this command: ptex2pdf -l latexfile.tex

Then I set the following configuration in .vimrc: let g:livepreview_engine = 'ptex2pdf' . ' -l'

Those setting failed. It works for pdflatex engine.

Actual behavior

Steps to reproduce
