说明
detex strips LaTeX and TeX commands from documents, leaving plain text. This is useful for spell checking, word counting, text analysis, and extracting readable content from LaTeX source files. The tool handles standard LaTeX constructs: commands, environments, comments, and special characters. Math mode content is typically removed unless -m is specified. With -e, it follows \\input directives to process multi-file documents. Output is the document text without markup, suitable for piping to spell checkers, word processors, or text analysis tools.
