Compiling pillar documents in Windows
Is it possible to compile pillar documents under windows? I have no problem in doing that in my OSX machine, but I need it to do it in Windows and can't figure it out. Guess support is only for *NIX os? thanks in advance Nacho ----- Nacho Smalltalker apprentice.

I am doing my pillar work in CentOS Linux and Ubuntu 14. Now, I think you can get it working in Windows but the main issue will be generating PDF files as the system uses pdflatex and I don't know how to do that in Windows.

Phil, Exactly that's my point I don't know if its possible to generate PDFs in Windows. In OSX works fine...because pdf2latex is there.... Thanks *Lic. Ignacio Sniechowski, MBA* *Prosavic SRL* *Tel: (011) 4542-6714* On Tue, Jan 20, 2015 at 12:26 PM, phil@highoctane.be <phil@highoctane.be> wrote:

you can generate HTML locally and let a continuous integration server build pdf. You can use https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/ if you want. -- Damien Cassou http://damiencassou.seasidehosting.st "Success is the ability to go from one failure to another without losing enthusiasm." --Winston Churchill
And if you really need to generate the pdf on Windows, you can install http://miktex.org. It provides a full LaTeX environment (including pdflatex) for Windows. #Luc 2015-01-21 13:45 GMT+01:00 Damien Cassou <damien.cassou@gmail.com>:

Thank you Damien & Luc I think miktek will do the trick! cheers Nacho ----- Nacho Smalltalker apprentice.

Hi, Also you can think check out luatex[1][2]. Its size is small, offers programmability via Lua and runs on windows. By the way, I'm starting a conversation on Moose mailing list about new ways of making structured interactive documentation on Pharo/Moose. Still alpha/rookie code with unanswered questions, but progressing continuously.

I already configured pillar to work on Mark's Windows laptop. Mark, can you please answer? Best, -- Damien Cassou http://damiencassou.seasidehosting.st "Success is the ability to go from one failure to another without losing enthusiasm." --Winston Churchill
