Support for the mylatexformat package

[Henzlefens]

Description

Hi! My name is Jens and I improved my compiling speed witch the implementation of a format file that contains all packages, the documentclass, header and footer definition etc. etc.

I write longer reports on energy analysis so my documents consists of several chapters that I write in multiple .tex files and \include{} them in my main.tex.

But since I am now compiling with a format file, PyCharm marks all sniplets that are based on the loaded packages in the format file.

Example

I created a small example project. The project needs to be compiled with pdflatex.
But first, the .bat file needs to be executed. It creates the format file based on the format_preamble.tex.
After that please compile the main.tex and have a look at the Heizkreise.tex. \includegraphics based on graphicx is unterlined with a red zigzag by PyCharm with a hint to import the package. But when you replace "./image" with an image of your choice you will see that the import of the graphic is working.

This is my first ever created issue and I am more than happy to help. I use texify in Pycharm on a regular basis.

Setup

I use PyCharm 2023.3.3 (Professional Edition)
Build #PY-233.13763.11
Runtime version: 17.0.9+7-b1087.11 amd64
VM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM by JetBrains s.r.o.

TeXiFy 0.9.3 is installed.

Hi, thanks for submitting this issue!
So far I have figured out that you are using the mylatexformat package, but it is not clear how to use the package to me, the documentation is a bit minimal.
Could you explain what is supposed to happen when running the command that is in your bat file? I guess a bericht.fmt file should be produced?
How do you then compile main.tex into a pdf?

If I execute etex -initialize -save-size=20000 -stack-size=20000 -jobname="bericht" "&pdflatex" mylatexformat.ltx "format_preamble.tex" then the output is

etex: unrecognized option '-initialize'
etex: unrecognized option '-save-size=20000'
etex: unrecognized option '-stack-size=20000'
