How to make texmaker call batch file

Post by benjaminbiegel »

Hi

I would like to configure latex to call an external file as a part of the compilation. The batch script is part of the way I have to make my references which is dictated by the template I am using for my thesis. This is, however, not so important.

I was guessing I could do this by putting the following into the quick build user defined box:
"/usr/texbin/latex" -interaction=nonstopmode %.tex|”/Users/benjaminbiegel/Documents/phd/Thesis/ThesisOngoing/runbtex.sh”

where i simply specify the absolute path to my the executable shell batch file (it is a mac). Everything works when i just type ”/Users/benjaminbiegel/Documents/phd/Thesis/ThesisOngoing/runbtex.sh” in the terminal, but texmaker does not call this file.

Any hit what I am doing wrong?

Thanks :)
Benjamin
