πŸ’– mtx-modules β€” ConTeXt Module Documentation Generators πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to mtx-modules, a.k.a. the ConTeXt Module Documentation Generators πŸŽ€βœ¨ it lives in the mtx-modules(1) section of the manual, and honestly? it's giving documentation-factory energy and I'm obsessed 🫢


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

mtxrun --script modules [ OPTIONS ...  ] [ FILENAMES ]

like, that's the whole vibe: you call it through mtxrun with --script modules, sprinkle in some OPTIONS, toss in your FILENAMES, and go 🌈


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

ConTeXt Module Documentation Generators πŸ’…

that's it, that's the whole description. she does one thing and she does it iconically πŸ‘‘


πŸ¦‹ OPTIONS πŸ¦‹

here's the full lineup, no skips, no cuts, we're listing every single one because that's what besties do πŸ’œ

  • --convert β€” converts your source files (the tex, mkii, mkiv, mp etc. ones) into 'ted' files ✨
  • --process β€” processes those source files (tex, mkii, mkiv, mp etc.) into 'pdf' files πŸ”₯
  • --prep β€” uses the original name with the suffix 'prep' appended, periodt πŸŽ€
  • --direct β€” uses the old method instead of extra (yes, the legacy route, retro era πŸ™ˆ)
ngl bestie, --direct is literally described as the "old method" β€” so if you reach for it, you're choosing the vintage path on purpose πŸ’€
