rlatex

Wrapper to run LaTeX/jadeTeX multiple times as needed

    	env LATEXPRG=latex-binary

          rlatex
          latex-document

## Description

`rlatex` applies LaTeX or another LaTeX-based macro package (most notably jadetex, pdflatex, or pdfjadetex) to a given document, as many successive times as needed.

It checks the output of a LaTeX pass, and launches a new pass when it notices specific strings which notify that the document's processing has not been finished.

## Caveats

This version is mostly tuned for jadetex, and may cause some problems when using pure LaTeX. This ought to be fixed some day.
