Author: Benjamin Birney Install Python
- If you don't have python, then run "sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get install python"
Installing necessary libraries / other stuff
- Check you pip version (if you have one) by running "pip --version"
- Install pip (if you don't have it) by running "sudo apt-get install python-pip python-dev build-essential"
- Next run "sudo easy_install pip" then "sudo pip install --upgrade virtualenv"
- To install BS4 (a dependency of the script) run "pip install beautifulsoup4"
- Download the script & place the actual directory wherever you want to run it (i.e. your bin)
- Make sure to run "sudo chmod +x makelatex" in your favorite directory
- If you have any trouble with stuff, feel free to ask me for help (or to google your problem)
- Also feel free to dig around in the script. The code is commented, so it shouldn't be too hard to figure out what I'm doing
- The script isn't perfect, but it's better than starting from scratch
