note2latex

Back when I was at Cascadia, I had decided to take my notes in LaTeX. However, I soon realized that pure LaTeX wouldn't do, as it was a bit too generic for my purposes. In order to reduce the load, I wrote a couple of scripts (unnecessary to use two, but I felt like it) and a style file.

note2latex

#!/bin/bash
TEXPP=/usr/local/bin/texpp.pl
LATEX=/usr/bin/latex

JOBNAME="$1.out"
OUT="$JOBNAME.tex"
$TEXPP "$1" "$OUT"
$LATEX "$OUT"
if [[ "`grep -i '\\\label' "$OUT" 2> /dev/null`" != "" || "`grep -i '\\\ref' "$OUT" 2> /dev/null`" != "" ]]; then
$LATEX "$OUT"
fi
rm -f "$OUT"
mv -f "$JOBNAME.dvi" "`basename "$1" .tex`.dvi"
mv -f "$JOBNAME.aux" "`basename "$1" .tex`.aux"
mv -f "$JOBNAME.log" "`basename "$1" .tex`.log"

texpp.pl

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use utf8;
scalar @ARGV >= 2 || die "No file given.\nUsage: texpp.pl infile outfile.\n";
my $infile = $ARGV[0];
my $outfile = $ARGV[1];
-e "$infile" || die "No such file.\n";
open(BUFF, "$infile") || die "Input file opening error.";
my @lines = <BUFF>;
close(BUFF);
my $count = scalar @lines;
for(my $i = 0; $i < $count; $i++) {
$lines[$i] =~ s/\\begin{sls}{([A-z]*)}/\\begin{sls}{\1}{foo$i}/g;
}
my @outlines = ("\\documentclass[12pt,letterpaper]{article}\n", "\\usepackage{notes}\n", "\\usepackage[margin=0.5in]{geometry}\n", "\\pagestyle{empty}\n", "\\begin{document}\n", @lines, "\\end{document}\n");
open(BUFF, ">$outfile") || die "Output file opening error.";
print BUFF @outlines;
close(BUFF);
