OK, one question then.

Suppose we're using a ill-formatted template with precisely those commands.
Isn't there a way to disable PDF output from the command line?

For example, I expected that doing 

  latex -output-format=dvi myfile.tex

would override the previous code and put out a DVI file...

Cheers,
