LatexMk completely automates the process of generating a LaTeX document.
|
||
|
Essentially, it is a highly specialized relative of the general make
|
||
|
utility. Given the source files for a document, latexmk issues the
|
||
|
appropriate sequence of commands to generate a .dvi, .ps, .pdf or hardcopy
|
||
|
version of the document. It will run LaTeX the correct number of times to
|
||
|
resolve cross references, and run auxiliary programs (bibtex, makeindex) if
|
||
|
necessary. It can also be set to run continuously with a previewer, in which
|
||
|
case the needed commands are re-run whenever one of the source files is
|
||
|
modified.
