This is the source code for SCIgen.
This is a modular style perl program that laces together a bunch of external
programs to render a pattern into a text, then latex file.
The script will produce working latex output. In order to convert that to
a pdf you'll also need tools from texlive-core, notably pdflatex
.
pacman -Sy graphviz texlive-bin inkscape ghostscript gnuplot
A bunch of other things are required that your system probably already has (perl, etc.)
git clone "https://github.com/Marcool04/scigen"
You can now test that everything works:
$ cd scigen
$ mkdir output
$ ./make-latex.pl --author "Jean Peuplu" --savedir "$pwd/output/"
(Optionally) convert the latex output to pdf:
$ cd output
$ pdflatex
