Summary description: Fully automated LaTeX document generation
Announcement text:
Check rc files for valid UTF-8; remove initial BOM. Improve some warnings and messages. Correctly implement conditional use of biber, to be able to preserve bbl file when bib file doesn't exist. This behavior now matches the conditional use of bibtex. Solve problem that processing times under Windows were reported as zero. Solve occasional problems caused by granularity of file times when detecting files generated during a run of *latex Configurably change default location of fls file to aux directory, to match behavior of recent versions of MiKTeX. Update documentation especially about aux and output directories.

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.
