Compiled version of book "500 Lines or less".

Source code is located in repository https://github.com/aosabook/500lines.git

I had big problems trying to build it under Windows. So I hope you don't need to follow my way.

How to build PDF on Windows

  1. First install Python 2.7 (not the latest Python 3.x, but old version Python 2.7), MikTex;

  2. Make sure folder with pdflatex.exe is added to PATH variable;

  3. Clone repository https://github.com/aosabook/500lines.git;

  4. Patch build.py script:

    • replace envy.run method with subprocess.call;
    • replace cp command line with Windows analog copy;
    • make sure that slash symbols '/' are replaced with backslash '\' for Windows folders;

    You can take build_win.py file from this repo as an example. But I can't guarantee it's 100% working.

  5. Run build script with command:

python build.py --pdf

In the end you'll find result file output\500L.pdf.
