In a normal .tex file, I need to load the \usepackage{ctex} in the preamble and
use the xelatex engine to compile the file.
I intend to test whether engine xelatex works or not. I change the peperun from lualatex to xelatex:

piperun(`latexmk -f -interaction=nonstopmode -view=none -xelatex -shell-escape $texfile`)

But I get the following error

Is it possible to add an options to use other latex engines? #1341
