apparently not. I tried with the following lines, from the openocd build: ilg-mbp:tmp ilg$ mkdir tex ilg-mbp:tmp ilg$ cd tex ilg-mbp:tex ilg$ export PATH=/Users/ilg/Work/no-backup/texlive/install/bin:$PATH ilg-mbp:tex ilg$ /Users/ilg/opt/homebrew-gae/bin/texi2dvi --pdf --batch -o openocd.pdf /Users/ilg/Work/openocd/gnuarmeclipse-openocd.git/doc/openocd.texi /Users/ilg/opt/homebrew-gae/bin/texi2dvi: TeX neither supports -recorder nor outputs \openout lines in its log file ilg-mbp:tex ilg$ ls -l ilg-mbp:tex ilg$ ilg-mbp:tex ilg$ /Users/ilg/opt/homebrew-gae/bin/texi2dvi --version texi2dvi (GNU Texinfo 6.3) 7353 ... ilg-mbp:tex ilg$ which etex /Users/ilg/Work/no-backup/texlive/install/bin/etex ilg-mbp:tex ilg$ etex --version pdfTeX 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.17 (TeX Live 2016) kpathsea version 6.2.2 ... Compiled with libpng 1.6.21; using libpng 1.6.21 Compiled with zlib 1.2.8; using zlib 1.2.8 Compiled with xpdf version 3.04 ilg-mbp:tex ilg$ the test uses my compiled texlive, the homebrew texinfo, and the openocd tex file. if you can suggest a more relevant test, please let me know and I'll try it. regards, Liviu
