Details on using the CLI can be found starting in Section 5.2. Setting up the PreTeXt-CLI on Windows is considerably simpler than the method presented in Appendix L, but there is still some effort required. In particular, you will have to install several pieces of software to get your system ready for using PreTeXt.
