ClutTeX: Process LaTeX document without cluttering your directory
=====
ClutTeX is a program to automatically process your LaTeX document.
If necessary, it re-runs (La)TeX program to resolve cross-references and everything.
One of its main feature is that, it does not clutter your working directory (but the final `.pdf` file is still brought for you).

Features
-----
* Does not clutter your working directory with `.aux`, `.log`, etc. files.

* With pTeX-like engines, automatically run dvipdfmx to produce PDF file.
* Automatically re-run (La)TeX to resolve cross-references and other things.
* Watch input files for change (requires an external program). \[`--watch` option\]
* Support for MakeIndex, BibTeX, Biber, makeglossaries commands. \[`--makeindex`, `--bibtex`, `--biber`, `--makeglossaries` options\]
Usage
-----
`$ cluttex -e pdflatex file.tex`
More general form:
`$ cluttex [OPTIONS] [--] INPUT.tex`
See [example/](example/) for some examples.

Specify which TeX engine/format to use.
`ENGINE` is one of the following:
`pdflatex`, `pdftex`,
`lualatex`, `luatex`, `luajittex`,
`xelatex`, `xetex`,
`latex`, `etex`, `tex`,
`platex`, `eptex`, `ptex`,
`uplatex`, `euptex`, `uptex`.
* `-o`, `--output=FILE`
The name of output file. \[default: `JOBNAME.FORMAT`\]

* `--max-iterations=N`
Maximum number of running TeX to resolve cross-references.
\[default: 3\]
* `--[no-]change-directory`
Change the current working directory to the output directory when running TeX.

* `--includeonly=NAMEs`
Insert `\includeonly{NAMEs}`.
* `--make-depends=FILE`
Write dependencies as a Makefile rule.
* `--tex-option=OPTION`
Pass `OPTION` to TeX as a single option.
* `--tex-options=OPTIONs`
Pass `OPTIONs` to TeX as multiple options.
* `--dvipdfmx-option[s]=OPTION[s]`
Same for dvipdfmx.
* `-h`, `--help`
Print this message and exit.
* `-v`, `--version`
Print version information and exit.
* `-V`, `--verbose`
Be more verbose.
* `--print-output-directory`
Print the output directory and exit.
* `--package-support=PKG1[,PKG2,...,PKGn]`
Enable special support for shell-escaping packages.
Currently supported packages are `minted` and `epstopdf`.
* `--engine-executable=COMMAND`
The actual TeX command to use.
* `--check-driver=DRIVER`
Check that the correct driver file is loaded.
`DRIVER` is one of `dvipdfmx`, `dvips`, `dvisvgm`.
Can only be used with `--output-format=dvi`.
Options to run auxiliary programs:
* `--makeindex=COMMAND`
Use MakeIndex program to process `.idx` files.
(e.g. `--makeindex=makeindex`, or `--makeindex=mendex`)
* `--bibtex=COMMAND`
Use BibTeX program to produce `.bbl` file from `.aux` files.
(e.g. `--bibtex=bibtex`, or `--bibtex=upbibtex`)
* `--biber[=COMMAND]`
Use Biber program to produce `.bbl` file from `.bcf` file.
* `--makeglossaries[=COMMAND]`
Use makeglossaries program to produce `.gls` file from `.glo` file.
TeX-compatible options:
* `--[no-]shell-escape`
* `--shell-restricted`
* `--synctex=NUMBER`
* `--[no-]file-line-error`
\[default: yes\]
* `--[no-]halt-on-error`
\[default: yes\]
* `--interaction=STRING`
(`STRING`=`batchmode`/`nonstopmode`/`scrollmode`/`errorstopmode`)
\[default: `nonstopmode`\]
* `--jobname=STRING`
* `--fmt=FORMAT`
* `--output-directory=DIR`
\[default: somewhere in the temporary directory\]
