Hi !

pdfjam in texlive-collection-binextra-20200406-1 doesn't work.

Even a simple invocation such as

    pdfjam a.pdf

hangs while waiting for input from stdin.


pdfjam 3.03 in TeX Live 2020 have got a major update since TeX Live 2019.
There was a new challenge to make pdfjam work with MiKTeX on Windows through Cygwin.
But it introduced a bug that make pdfjam fail to work with pure Cygwin TeX Live packages.
This is a situation.

I made a pull-request to fix 10+ days ago, but it is not merged yet, and still I don't know whether it will be accepted or not:

    https://github.com/DavidFirth/pdfjam/pull/22

So, here, I attach a file to replace /usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/pdfjam/pdfjam for convenience.

##  HELP TEXT

##  Defines the output of 'pdfjam --help'
##
helptext="
pdfjam is a shell-script front end to the LaTeX 'pdfpages' package (for
which, see http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/pdfpages).

Usage: pdfjam [OPTIONS] [--] [FILE1 [SEL1]] [FILE2 [SEL2]]...
where
* 'FILE1' etc. are PDF files (JPG and PNG files are also allowed).  For 
   input from /dev/stdin, use the special name '/dev/stdin' in place of any 
   of FILE1, FILE2, etc: this can be mixed with 'real' files as needed, to 
   allow input through a pipe (note that if /dev/stdin is connected to tty, 
   an error results).  If 'FILE1' is absent, pdfjam will use '/dev/stdin' 
   (and will use '-' for the page selection -- see next item).
* 'SEL1' is a page selection for FILE1, etc.
   To select all pages (the default) use '-'.  See the pdfpages manual for
   more details.  An example:
          ... file1 '{},2,4-6,9-' ...
   makes an empty page, followed by pages 2,4,5,6 of file1, followed by pages
   9 onwards (up to the end of file1).
   A page selection can be applied to more than one file, e.g.,
          ... file1 file2 file3 1-7 ...
   applies page selection '1-7' to all three files; but for example
          ... file1 file2 2- file3 1-7 ...
   would apply the page selection '2-' to file1 and file2, and '1-7'
   to file3.  A page selection applies to all the files *immediately*
   preceding it in the argument list.  A missing page selection defaults to 
   '-'; this includes the case where 'FILE1' is absent and so /dev/stdin gets 
   used by default.
* 'options' are pdfpages specifications in the form '--KEY VALUE' (see
   below), or
     --help  (or -h, or -u)
                  Output this text only; no processing of PDF files.
     --configpath
                  Output the 'configpath' variable and exit immediately; no
                  processing of PDF files.
     --version (or -V)
                  Output the version number of pdfjam and exit immediately; no
                  processing of PDF files.
     --quiet  (or -q)
                  Suppress verbose commentary on progress.
     --batch
                  Run pdfjam sequentially on each input file in turn, and
                  produce a separate output file for each input, rather
                  than the default behaviour (which is a single run of
                  pdfjam on all of the input files, producing a single
                  output document).  For the location of output
                  files, see '--outfile'.  The --batch option cannot be
                  used in the case of input from stdin.
     --outfile PATH  (or -o PATH)
                  Specifies where the output file(s) will go.  If PATH is an
                  existing directory, pdfjam will attempt to write its
                  output PDF file(s) there, with name(s) derived from the
                  input file name(s) and the --suffix option (see below).
                  Otherwise the output file will be PATH.  If '/dev/stdin' 
                  is the only or last input file, PATH cannot be a directory.
                  Your current default PATH for output is: 
                  $outFile
     --suffix STRING
                  Specifies a suffix for output file names, to be used when
                  --outfile is either (a) a directory, or
                                      (b) not specified in a --batch call.
                  A good STRING should be descriptive: for example,
                           --suffix 'rotated'
                  would append the text '-rotated' to the name of the input
                  file in order to make the output file name, as in
                  'myfile-rotated.pdf'.  The STRING must not have zero
                  length.
                  [Default for you at this site: suffix=$suffix]
     --checkfiles
     --no-checkfiles
                  If the Unix 'file' utility is available, with options
                  -L and -b, the output of 'file -Lb FILE1' should be
                  'PDF document...' where '...' gives version information.
                  If this is the case on your system you should use
                  '--checkfiles'; otherwise use '--no-checkfiles',
                  in which case all input PDF files must have .pdf or .PDF
                  as their name extension.
                  [Default for you at this site: checkfiles=$checkfiles]
     --preamble STRING
                  Append the supplied STRING to the preamble of the LaTeX
                  source file(s), immediately before the '\begin{document}'
                  line.  An example:
                      pdfjam --nup 2x2 myfile.pdf -o myfile-4up.pdf \\
                          --preamble '\usepackage{fancyhdr} \pagestyle{fancy}'
                  The '--preamble' option can be used, for example, to load 
                  LaTeX packages and/or to set global options.  If '--preamble'
                  is used more than once in the call, the supplied preamble 
                  strings are simply concatenated.  For a note on avoiding
                  clashes, see the PDFjam-README file (also available at
                  http://www.pdfjam.net).
     --keepinfo
     --no-keepinfo
                  Preserve (or not) Title, Author, Subject and Keywords
                  (from the last input PDF file, if more than one) in the
                  output PDF file.  This requires the pdfinfo utility, from
                  the xpdf package, and the LaTeX 'hyperref' package; if
                  either of those is not available, '--keepinfo' is ignored.
                  [Default for you at this site: keepinfo=$keepinfo]
     --pdftitle STRING
     --pdfauthor STRING
     --pdfsubject STRING
     --pdfkeywords STRING
                  Provide text for the  Title, Author, Subject and Keywords
                  in the output PDF file.  Requires the  LaTeX 'hyperref'
                  package.  These options, individually, over-ride --keepinfo.
     --landscape
     --no-landscape
                  Specify landscape page orientation (or not) in the
                  output PDF file.
                  [Default for you at this site: landscape=$landscape]
     --twoside
     --no-twoside
                  Specify (or not) the 'twoside' document class option.
                  [Default for you at this site: twoside=$twoside]
     --paper PAPERSPEC  (or simply --PAPERSPEC)
                  Specify a LaTeX paper size, for example
                  '--paper a4paper' or simply '--a4paper' for ISO A4 paper.
                  If the LaTeX 'geometry' package is installed, a wider range
                  of paper sizes is available.  For details see documentation
                  for LaTeX and/or the 'geometry' package.
                  [Default for you at this site: paper=$paper]
     --papersize '{WIDTH,HEIGHT}'
                  Specify a custom paper size, e.g.,
                      --papersize '{10in,18cm}'
                  (Note the braces, and the comma!)
                  If the 'geometry' package is not found, this has no effect.
     --pagecolor RGBSPEC
                  Specify a background colour for the output pages.  The 
                  RGBSPEC must be a comma-separated trio of integers
                  between 0 and 255.  An example:
                         --pagecolor 150,200,150
                  [Default is no background colour]
     --tidy
     --no-tidy
                  Specify whether the temporary directory created by
                  pdfjam should be deleted.  Use '--no-tidy' to help debug
                  most errors.
                  [Default for you at this site: tidy=$tidy]
     --latex PATHTOLATEX
                  Specify the LaTeX engine to be used (one of pdflatex,
		  xelatex, lualatex).  The PATHTOLATEX string must be
		  the full path to a suitable LaTeX executable (for example
		  /usr/bin/xelatex on many unix systems).
		  [Default for you at this site: latex=$latex]
     --runs N
                  Run latex N times, for each output document made. 
                  [Default for you at this site: runs=$runs]
     --vanilla
                  Suppress the reading of any site-wide or user-specific
                  configuration files.
     --KEY VALUE
                  Specify options to '\includepdfmerge', in the LaTeX
                  'pdfpages' package.  Here KEY is the name of any of the
                  many options for '\includepdfmerge', and VALUE is a
                  corresponding value.  Examples are
                      --nup 2x1     (for 2-up side-by-side imposition)
                      --scale 0.7   (to scale all input pages to 70% size)
                      --offset '1cm 0.5cm'
                                    (to offset all pages -- note the quotes!)
                      --frame true  (to put a frame round each input page)
                      --trim '1cm 2cm 1cm 2cm' --clip true
                                    (to trim those amounts from left, bottom,
                                     right and top, respectively, of input 
                                     pages) 
                  etc., etc.  For more information see the manual for
                  the 'pdfpages' package, at
                  http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/pdfpages
* '--' can be used to signal that there are no more options to come.

Defaults for the options '--suffix', '--keepinfo', '--paper', '--outfile', 
'--landscape', '--twoside', '--tidy', '--latex', '--runs', '--checkfiles'
and '--preamble' can be set in site-wide or user-specific configuration files.
The path that is searched for site-wide configuration files (named pdfjam.conf)
at this installation is
    $configpath
This configuration path can be changed by editing the pdfjam script if
necessary.  Any user-specific configuration should be put in a file named
.pdfjam.conf in your home directory.  (All of these files are ignored
if the '--vanilla' argument is used.)

##  CONFIGURATION
##
##  THESE SETTINGS WILL BE OVER-RIDDEN by any found in configuration
##  files.  By default such files are found at any or all of
##     /etc/pdfjam.conf
##     /usr/share/etc/pdfjam.conf
##     /usr/local/share/pdfjam.conf
##     /usr/local/etc/pdfjam.conf
##     $HOME/.pdfjam.conf
##  (And they are read in that order; if a setting is made more than
##  once, the last instance prevails.)
##
##  An example configuration file can be found at
##     https://github.com/DavidFirth/pdfjam
##
##  The path searched for site-wide configuration files can be changed
##  by editing the variable 'configpath' at the top of this file.
##
##
##  First get the full path (if it exists) to pdflatex:
##
latex=$(command -v pdflatex)
if [ -z "$latex" ] ; then latex="not found" ; fi
##
##  Likewise for the pdfinfo (only needed for `--keepinfo'):
##
pdfinfo=$(command -v pdfinfo)
if [ -z "$pdfinfo" ] ; then pdfinfo="not found"; fi
##
##
##  Next a permitted location for temporary files on your system:
##
tempfileDir='/var/tmp'   ##  /var/tmp is standard on most unix systems
##
##
##  Default for the output file location:
##
outFile="$pwd"           ##  Output to the current working directory
##
##
##  A few more default settings for pdfjam:
##
runs=1                     ## Run latex just once
##
tidy='true'                ##  Delete all temporary files at the end
##
keepinfo='false'           ##  Don't try to preserve "pdfinfo" data
##
checkfiles='false'         ##  Don't use the Unix 'file -Lb' utility to
##                           identify PDF files from their contents;
##                           rely on the .pdf or .PDF extension instead.
##

Thanks.  I'll keep an eye on the PR.  It it doesn't get merged within the next 
few weeks, I'll just apply your patch locally and make a new release.

Hi,

Will you adopt a fixed version of pdfjam 3.03 for cygwin? (since the author seems too busy to merge it).

(1) Please adopt a version https://github.com/DavidFirth/pdfjam/pull/22 , at least.

(2) Or, please adopt a version https://github.com/DavidFirth/pdfjam/pull/26 , if you think the commit https://github.com/DavidFirth/pdfjam/pull/26/commits/d4025732b0fca36950ae9de60b9bd256da0b7617 is favorable.


Sincerely,
Lem

##  HELP TEXT
##
##  Defines the output of 'pdfjam --help'
##
helptext="
pdfjam is a shell-script front end to the LaTeX 'pdfpages' package (for
which, see http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/pdfpages).

Usage: pdfjam [OPTIONS] [--] [FILE1 [SEL1]] [FILE2 [SEL2]]...
where
* 'FILE1' etc. are PDF files (JPG and PNG files are also allowed).  For 
   input from /dev/stdin, use the special name '/dev/stdin' in place of any 
   of FILE1, FILE2, etc: this can be mixed with 'real' files as needed, to 
   allow input through a pipe (note that if /dev/stdin is connected to tty, 
   an error results).  If 'FILE1' is absent, pdfjam will use '/dev/stdin' 
   (and will use '-' for the page selection -- see next item).
* 'SEL1' is a page selection for FILE1, etc.
   To select all pages (the default) use '-'.  See the pdfpages manual for
   more details.  An example:
          ... file1 '{},2,4-6,9-' ...
   makes an empty page, followed by pages 2,4,5,6 of file1, followed by pages
   9 onwards (up to the end of file1).
   A page selection can be applied to more than one file, e.g.,
          ... file1 file2 file3 1-7 ...
   applies page selection '1-7' to all three files; but for example
          ... file1 file2 2- file3 1-7 ...
   would apply the page selection '2-' to file1 and file2, and '1-7'
   to file3.  A page selection applies to all the files *immediately*
   preceding it in the argument list.  A missing page selection defaults to 
   '-'; this includes the case where 'FILE1' is absent and so /dev/stdin gets 
   used by default.
* 'options' are pdfpages specifications in the form '--KEY VALUE' (see
   below), or
     --help  (or -h, or -u)
                  Output this text only; no processing of PDF files.
     --configpath
                  Output the 'configpath' variable and exit immediately; no
                  processing of PDF files.
     --version (or -V)
                  Output the version number of pdfjam and exit immediately; no
                  processing of PDF files.
     --quiet  (or -q)
                  Suppress verbose commentary on progress.
     --batch
                  Run pdfjam sequentially on each input file in turn, and
                  produce a separate output file for each input, rather
                  than the default behaviour (which is a single run of
                  pdfjam on all of the input files, producing a single
                  output document).  For the location of output
                  files, see '--outfile'.  The --batch option cannot be
                  used in the case of input from stdin.
     --outfile PATH  (or -o PATH)
                  Specifies where the output file(s) will go.  If PATH is an
                  existing directory, pdfjam will attempt to write its
                  output PDF file(s) there, with name(s) derived from the
                  input file name(s) and the --suffix option (see below).
                  Otherwise the output file will be PATH.  If '/dev/stdin' 
                  is the only or last input file, PATH cannot be a directory.
                  Your current default PATH for output is: 
                  $outFile
     --suffix STRING
                  Specifies a suffix for output file names, to be used when
                  --outfile is either (a) a directory, or
                                      (b) not specified in a --batch call.
                  A good STRING should be descriptive: for example,
                           --suffix 'rotated'
                  would append the text '-rotated' to the name of the input
                  file in order to make the output file name, as in
                  'myfile-rotated.pdf'.  The STRING must not have zero
                  length.
                  [Default for you at this site: suffix=$suffix]
     --checkfiles
     --no-checkfiles
                  If the Unix 'file' utility is available, with options
                  -L and -b, the output of 'file -Lb FILE1' should be
                  'PDF document...' where '...' gives version information.
                  If this is the case on your system you should use
                  '--checkfiles'; otherwise use '--no-checkfiles',
                  in which case all input PDF files must have .pdf or .PDF
                  as their name extension.
                  [Default for you at this site: checkfiles=$checkfiles]
     --preamble STRING
                  Append the supplied STRING to the preamble of the LaTeX
                  source file(s), immediately before the '\begin{document}'
                  line.  An example:
                      pdfjam --nup 2x2 myfile.pdf -o myfile-4up.pdf \\
                          --preamble '\usepackage{fancyhdr} \pagestyle{fancy}'
                  The '--preamble' option can be used, for example, to load 
                  LaTeX packages and/or to set global options.  If '--preamble'
                  is used more than once in the call, the supplied preamble 
                  strings are simply concatenated.  For a note on avoiding
                  clashes, see the PDFjam-README file (also available at
                  http://www.pdfjam.net).
     --keepinfo
     --no-keepinfo
                  Preserve (or not) Title, Author, Subject and Keywords
                  (from the last input PDF file, if more than one) in the
                  output PDF file.  This requires the pdfinfo utility, from
                  the xpdf package, and the LaTeX 'hyperref' package; if
                  either of those is not available, '--keepinfo' is ignored.
                  [Default for you at this site: keepinfo=$keepinfo]
     --pdftitle STRING
     --pdfauthor STRING
     --pdfsubject STRING
     --pdfkeywords STRING
                  Provide text for the  Title, Author, Subject and Keywords
                  in the output PDF file.  Requires the  LaTeX 'hyperref'
                  package.  These options, individually, over-ride --keepinfo.
     --landscape
     --no-landscape
                  Specify landscape page orientation (or not) in the
                  output PDF file.
                  [Default for you at this site: landscape=$landscape]
     --twoside
     --no-twoside
                  Specify (or not) the 'twoside' document class option.
                  [Default for you at this site: twoside=$twoside]
     --paper PAPERSPEC  (or simply --PAPERSPEC)
                  Specify a LaTeX paper size, for example
                  '--paper a4paper' or simply '--a4paper' for ISO A4 paper.
                  If the LaTeX 'geometry' package is installed, a wider range
                  of paper sizes is available.  For details see documentation
                  for LaTeX and/or the 'geometry' package.
                  [Default for you at this site: paper=$paper]
     --papersize '{WIDTH,HEIGHT}'
                  Specify a custom paper size, e.g.,
                      --papersize '{10in,18cm}'
                  (Note the braces, and the comma!)
                  If the 'geometry' package is not found, this has no effect.
     --pagecolor RGBSPEC
                  Specify a background colour for the output pages.  The 
                  RGBSPEC must be a comma-separated trio of integers
                  between 0 and 255.  An example:
                         --pagecolor 150,200,150
                  [Default is no background colour]
     --tidy
     --no-tidy
                  Specify whether the temporary directory created by
                  pdfjam should be deleted.  Use '--no-tidy' to help debug
                  most errors.
                  [Default for you at this site: tidy=$tidy]
     --latex PATHTOLATEX
                  Specify the LaTeX engine to be used (one of pdflatex,
		  xelatex, lualatex).  The PATHTOLATEX string must be
		  the full path to a suitable LaTeX executable (for example
		  /usr/bin/xelatex on many unix systems).
		  [Default for you at this site: latex=$latex]
     --runs N
                  Run latex N times, for each output document made. 
                  [Default for you at this site: runs=$runs]
     --vanilla
                  Suppress the reading of any site-wide or user-specific
                  configuration files.
     --KEY VALUE
                  Specify options to '\includepdfmerge', in the LaTeX
                  'pdfpages' package.  Here KEY is the name of any of the
                  many options for '\includepdfmerge', and VALUE is a
                  corresponding value.  Examples are
                      --nup 2x1     (for 2-up side-by-side imposition)
                      --scale 0.7   (to scale all input pages to 70% size)
                      --offset '1cm 0.5cm'
                                    (to offset all pages -- note the quotes!)
                      --frame true  (to put a frame round each input page)
                      --trim '1cm 2cm 1cm 2cm' --clip true
                                    (to trim those amounts from left, bottom,
                                     right and top, respectively, of input 
                                     pages) 
                  etc., etc.  For more information see the manual for
                  the 'pdfpages' package, at
                  http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/pdfpages
* '--' can be used to signal that there are no more options to come.

Defaults for the options '--suffix', '--keepinfo', '--paper', '--outfile', 
'--landscape', '--twoside', '--tidy', '--latex', '--runs', '--checkfiles'
and '--preamble' can be set in site-wide or user-specific configuration files.
The path that is searched for site-wide configuration files (named pdfjam.conf)
at this installation is
    $configpath
This configuration path can be changed by editing the pdfjam script if
necessary.  Any user-specific configuration should be put in a file named
.pdfjam.conf in your home directory.  (All of these files are ignored
if the '--vanilla' argument is used.)

##  CONFIGURATION
##
##  THESE SETTINGS WILL BE OVER-RIDDEN by any found in configuration
##  files.  By default such files are found at any or all of
##     /etc/pdfjam.conf
##     /usr/share/etc/pdfjam.conf
##     /usr/local/share/pdfjam.conf
##     /usr/local/etc/pdfjam.conf
##     $HOME/.pdfjam.conf
##  (And they are read in that order; if a setting is made more than
##  once, the last instance prevails.)
##
##  An example configuration file can be found at
##     https://github.com/DavidFirth/pdfjam
##
##  The path searched for site-wide configuration files can be changed
##  by editing the variable 'configpath' at the top of this file.
##
##
##  First get the full path (if it exists) to pdflatex:
##
latex=$(command -v pdflatex)
if [ -z "$latex" ] ; then latex="not found" ; fi
##
##  Likewise for the pdfinfo (only needed for `--keepinfo'):
##
pdfinfo=$(command -v pdfinfo)
if [ -z "$pdfinfo" ] ; then pdfinfo="not found"; fi
##
##
##  Next a permitted location for temporary files on your system:
##
tempfileDir='/var/tmp'   ##  /var/tmp is standard on most unix systems
##
##
##  Default for the output file location:
##
outFile="$pwd"           ##  Output to the current working directory
##
##
##  A few more default settings for pdfjam:
##
runs=1                     ## Run latex just once
##
tidy='true'                ##  Delete all temporary files at the end
##

##
checkfiles='false'         ##  Don't use the Unix 'file -Lb' utility to
##                           identify PDF files from their contents;
##                           rely on the .pdf or .PDF extension instead.
##
suffix='pdfjam'            ##  Default filename suffix to be used when 
##                           --outfile is either (a) a directory, or (b) 
##                           not specified in a --batch call.
##
