<p>We have the TexLive distribution., which appears not to have the source code for the latex command.<br>
<br>
We are in need of an enhancement to the LaTeX command-line so that it will read a list of tex filenames from either STDIN or disk and, for each filename in the list, create a DVI file without forking and execing each time. We have 80,000 tex files to process for a typical run to create 80,000 dvi files. Alternately, we could give it the name of a directory and expect latex to process all the tex files in the directory.<br>
<br>
We have the C expertise to make such an enhancement.<br>
<br>
Please advise. Thanks.<br>
