To preview the LaTeX document homework.tex which was
created in the last section on the screen , use:
math joe % runtex -preview -latex homework
---- running latex on homework ----

(homework.tex
LaTeX Version 2.09 <25 March 1992>
(/usr/local/lib/tex/inputs/article.sty
Standard Document Style `article' <14 Jan 92>.
(/usr/local/lib/tex/inputs/art10.sty))
No file homework.aux.
(homework.aux) )

(The -latex option in the command above is necessary
only when processing a LaTeX document).
The previewer that appears will vary according to what kind of
terminal you are on. If you are using a VT220, a simple screen view
of the document will appear. It is not a good representation of
the actual document because a VT220 is not a graphics terminal.
If you are using a windowing system on a Sun workstation, a more
detailed view of the document will appear on the screen. In the
above example, xdvi is used. This is a previewer used
with the X Window System. For previewing the result of your TeX
document on the screen, we suggest you use one of the workstations
in the graphics lab with a windowing system.
Below is an example of how to use runtex to process a LaTeX file
called testfile.tex and preview the first five pages of
it on the screen:
math joe % runtex -latex -pages 1:5 -preview testfile
