Auto Multiple Choice 1.6.0                         2023-02-06                              AUTO-MULTIPLE-CHOI(1)

       The auto-multiple-choiceprepare command extracts working documents from the source file describing the
       multiple choice questionnaire. Information to be extracted depends on the --mode argument value. In any
       mode, the source filename must be given as an argument.

       •   with "--modes", auto-multiple-choiceprepare makes the subject file (answer sheet to be printed and
           given to the students), the correction (single corrected answer sheet) and the positions file (file
           containing information about the positions of the boxes on the pages). The following arguments can be
           used:

           --out-sujetsubject.pdf
               sets the subject file to build.

           --out-corrigecorrected.pdf
               sets the correction to build.

           --out-calagecalage.xy
               sets the positions file to build.

           --prefixdirectory
               this directory is only necessary if one or more of the three previous options are not used:
               default values are then directory/sujet.pdf, directory/corrige.pdf and directory/calage.xy.

       •   with "--modeb", auto-multiple-choiceprepare extracts scoring data from the source file. In this
           mode, the --data argument must be used (see below).

       The following optional arguments can be used in any mode:

       --withlatex-engine
           gives the LaTeX engine (command) to be used.  latex-engine can be pdflatex or xelatex for example.

       --filterfilter
           sets the filter name to transform the MCQ source file into a LaTeX file. Native filters are latex (no
           change at all) and plain (source is an AMC-TXT file).

       --filtered-sourcemcq-latex-file
           gives the LaTeX file to make from the source file using specified filter. If omitted, a filename
           derived from mcq-source-file adding _filtered.tex is used.

       --n-copiesn
           sets the number of copies to produce, overriding the number given in the LaTeX source file (first
           argument of the \onecopy command).

       --debugfile.log
           gives a file to fill with debugging information.

       --epochEPOCH
           gives an epoch (number of seconds since january 1, 1970) to get a reproducible pdf output.

       --dataproject-data-dir
           sets the directory where the project's SQLite data files are.
