This feature is dangerous: like VBA macros in M$ office documents, it allows to include malware in LaTeX documents. See my example, it's pretty easy: https://qr.ae/TLn5bv Such code may occasionally reveal in any .sty/.tex files, especially if you download them from somewhere outside of CTAN and TeXlive. Whoever knows if some troll or misanthrope would publish a TeX virus...<br /><br />Some packages, like minted, need -shell-escape for legitimate reasons: to call some external tools. But their instructions will include an instruction to install those tools first anyway. As a rule of thumb, you should be alarmed if something needs shell-escaping, and check why before enabling it.<br /><br />In the case shown in this post, shell-escaping is needed because some illustrations included in the document are in EPS format. This is an anti-pattern: modern LaTeX compilers, like pdflatex and xelatex, generate PDF directly rather than raw PostScript, thus they can't just include an EPS image and need a converter. You really should manually convert any graphics to PDF, PNG or JPG format before including in a document. Unlike your stereotypes may tell, PDF is not only for printable documents, it's also a great container for any static vector graphics, so you can convert other vector formats in PDF with no any loss with tools like ImageMagick or Inkscape. This will not only eliminate the need in ugly epstopdf quirk, but also speed up the document build process.bodqhrohrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17087279386700842629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9017821219577472107.post-50805096845365489862020-02-27T03:11:38.826+08:002020-02-27T03:11:38.826+08:00It's an extremely foolish recommendation to bl...It's an extremely foolish recommendation to blindly enable shell escaping whenever possible.
