_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Run latex and bibtex until all cross-references are resolved and
     create either a dvi or PDF file.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     texi2dvi(file, pdf = FALSE, clean = FALSE, quiet = TRUE,
              texi2dvi = getOption("texi2dvi"))

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

    file: character.  Name of LaTeX source file.

     pdf: logical.  If 'TRUE', a PDF file is produced instead of the
          default dvi file ('texi2dvi' command line option '--pdf').

   clean: logical.  If 'TRUE', all auxiliary files are removed
          ('texi2dvi' command line option '--clean').  May not work on
          some platforms.

   quiet: logical.  No output unless an error occurs.

texi2dvi: character (or 'NULL').  Script or program used to compile a
          TeX file to dvi or PDF, respectively. The default (selected
          by 'NULL') is to look for an executable on the search path
          and otherwise emulate the script with 'system' calls.

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     Despite the name, this is used in R to compile LaTeX files,
     specifically those generated from vignettes.

_A_u_t_h_o_r(_s):

     Achim Zeileis
