lualatex:tldr:bd161
This command is used to run the LuaLaTeX typesetting engine on a TeX document.
Here is an explanation of the different parts of the command:
-
lualatex
is the executable for the LuaLaTeX typesetting engine. -
-jobname=${filename}
is an option for LuaLaTeX, where${filename}
is a placeholder that represents the desired name of the output file. This option allows you to specify a custom name for the output file instead of the default name generated by LuaLaTeX. -
${filename-tex}
is another placeholder that represents the input TeX file. This is the file that will be processed by LuaLaTeX. The${filename}
part is the actual name of the TeX file, and the-tex
suffix specifies the file extension.
Combining all of these parts, the command instructs LuaLaTeX to process the TeX document specified by ${filename-tex}
and generate the output using the specified job name ${filename}
.
