latexmk: Compile a DVI document from a specific source file.
$ latexmk ${source-tex}
try on your machine
This command is a command-line instruction for running the utility program latexmk
, which is commonly used for compiling LaTeX documents.
${source-tex}
is a placeholder for the name or path of the source TeX file (the file that contains the LaTeX code). The user should replace ${source-tex}
with the actual name or path of their TeX file.
When this command is executed, latexmk
will treat ${source-tex}
as the source TeX file and perform the necessary compilation steps, such as running LaTeX, BibTeX, and any required additional tools, to generate the final output (usually a PDF file).
