* AREXX Name:Start_TeX.rexx Version:1.41 Date:27-Jul-91
*
This AREXX script compiles the files given in argument, using an
optional format argument. All in all, it handles as if you had called
virtex directly (except if you want to pass virtex some options). As
the server is called, any virtex error messages will go to the server
window, not the CLI. A '?' formatname will interactively ask for the
format to use.
*
AUTHOR:
* J\"org H\"ohle, March 91
* Revised: 21 April 1991
BUGS:
virtex doesn't like filenames with blanks (and ARexx parses them
hardly too), so avoid them in file, directory *and* device names.
*
does not like names relative to the local root, like ":foo/bar"
*
FILES:
ENV:TEXFORMAT: default format used
REXX:namestruc
*
