Summary description: Fully automated LaTeX document generation
Announcement text:
Improve parsing of long lines in log file, especially with UTF-8 filenames and xelatex. Changing of '\' to '/' in filenames is done for msys as well as MSWin32. $compiling_cmd, $warning_cmd, $success_cmd now work in normal make as well as in -pvc mode. If there were missing subdirectories in output/aux directories, and these were successfully created, then ignore error from *latex, since rerun may succeed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/support/latexmk More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/latexmk CTAN is run entirely by volunteers and supported by TeX user groups Please join a user group or donate to one, see https://ctan.org/lugs

LaTeXmk – Fully automated LaTeX document generation
Latexmk completely automates the process of generating a LaTeX document. 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.
An important feature is the preview continuous
mode
, where the script watches all of the source files
(primary file and included TeX and graphics files), and reruns
LaTeX, etc., whenever a source file has changed. Thus a previewer
can offer a display of the document’s latest state.
