documentation of return codes

Open christianmalek opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

Hi,

Is there a documentation for the return codes of tectonic? I would appreciate a flag that tectonic imitates the exit code behaviour of latexmk.

There is no documentation yet, but that is the kind of thing I am going to work on when I get the chance (cf. #62). Do you happen to have a link to some documentation for the codes that latexmk uses?

That's the only thing I could get out of the latexmk.pl from the latexmk source.

## Explicit exit codes: 
##             10 = bad command line arguments
##             11 = file specified on command line not found
##                  or other file not found
##             12 = failure in some part of making files
##             13 = error in initialization file
##             20 = probable bug
##             or retcode from called program.
