Re: [ww-users] Using latex locally?

[lee w. <wor...@gm...>]

I've created a new documentation page for WorkingWiki administrators, and 
written a section on creating site makefiles:
http://lalashan.mcmaster.ca/theobio/projects/index.php/WorkingWiki/Administration

While I was doing that I noticed that if your latexml executable is in a 
nonstandard location, the same applies to latexmlpost and latexmlmath (WW 
needs all three).  So you would actually need

  export LATEXML=/path/to/latexml
  export LATEXMLPOST=/path/to/latexmlpost
  export LATEXMLMATH=/path/to/latexmlmath

They should all be in the same place.

Likewise, you might also need to provide definitions for BIBTEX, DVIPDF or 
the like, depending on your needs and installation.
