CTAN Update: autolatex 5.3
Date: October 8, 2007 12:32:20 AM CEST
On Sat, 6 Oct 2007, Stephane Galland submitted an update to the
autolatex
package.
AutoLaTeX is a set of GNU Make and Perl scripts that may be used to
compile LaTeX projects. AutoLaTeX automates the compilation process by
calling (pdf)latex and bibtex as they are required. It supports pdflatex,
latex, dvips, epstopdf and bibtex. AutoLaTeX also provides a powerful
feature for automatic generation of the figures that are included in the
LaTeX project: for several figure sources (xfig, dia, umbrello, png, svg,
xmi...) AutoLaTeX is able to generate the appropriate PDF picture.
AutoLaTeX also supports pstex format generation (from xfig and gnuplot for
example).
The use of AutoLaTeX on the command line is similar to GNU Make.
AutoLaTeX should be called with several targets to run.

AutoLaTeX – Automate compilation of large scale LaTeX projects
AutoLaTeX is a tool for managing small to large LaTeX documents. It simplifies the process of producing PDF files or viewing documents by tracking file changes and automating the execution of required programs. One of AutoLaTeX’s best features is its translator rules (also known as translators), which automatically generate drawings for inclusion in the PDF from various source formats such as SVG and GNU Plot.
