miktex_update – A cygwin bash script for automatic updating and installing new packages of MiKTeX

The mik­tex_up­date script of­fers au­to­matic up­dat­ing and in­stalling of new pack­ages of an ex­ist­ing MiKTeX in­stal­la­tion. It sup­ports di­rect con­nec­tion with on­line repos­i­to­ries of the MiKTeX server net­work, as well as syn­chro­niz­ing a lo­cal repos­i­tory (CTAN) with fol­low­ing up­date. In the end you should have an up-to-date and com­plete MiKTeX in­stal­la­tion.
