in reply to raffle_tickets_generator

Getting it to work is an art I have not mastered yet. It runs, but hangs, because pdflatex expects a prompt

! LaTeX Error: File `makecell.sty' not found. Type X to quit or <RETURN> to proceed, or enter new name. (Default extension: sty) Enter file name:

I require package texlive-latex-extra which is a little too steep for my machine: 885MB for some fonts, and LaTeX utils. Ill have to think about it... nice storytelling prosa.

    Is there any way to redirect the pdflatex's IO so one could interact with it from the console used to launch the script?
