🌸 LATEXENCODE(1) — User Commands 🌸

okay so bestie, welcome to latexencode 💖

✨ NAME ✨

latexencode — part of pylatexenc: simple LaTeX parser provider conversion to/from unicode 🦋

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

here's the vibe, the usage line, the whole thing, no cap:

usage: latexencode [--non-ascii-only] [--no-non-ascii-only]

       [--replacement-latex-protection
       {braces,braces-all,braces-almost-all,braces-after-macro,none}]
       [--unknown-char-policy {keep,replace,ignore,fail}] [-q]
       [--version] [--help] [FILE [FILE ...]]

🎀 positional arguments: 🎀

  • FILE — your input files! if you don't hand over any, she reads from standard input instead 🫶

⭐ optional arguments: ⭐

  • --non-ascii-only
  • --no-non-ascii-only

the option --non-ascii-only is saying: only nonascii characters get encoded into LaTeX sequences. and like, not characters like '$' — even though they might have a special LaTeX meaning. so rude of them to have meanings honestly 😭

  • --replacement-latex-protection {braces,braces-all,braces-almost-all,braces-after-macro,none} — how to protect replacement latex code from producing invalid latex code when it gets concatenated in a longer string. one of 'braces', 'braces-all', 'braces-almostall', 'braces-after-macro', 'none'. example, bestie: using choice 'braces' we avoid the invalid replacement 'a???b' -> 'a\tob' with instead 'a{\to}b'. she ate that 💅
  • --unknown-char-policy {keep,replace,ignore,fail} — how to deal with nonascii characters that have no known latex code equivalent 👀
  • -q, --quiet — suppress warning messages 🤫
  • --version — show version information and exit ✨
  • --help — show this help information and exit 🌈
