Summary description: Fully automated LaTeX document generation
Announcement text:
Update example_rcfiles/bib2gls_latexmkrc to deal with situation where .glstex file has basename of .bib file rather than that of main .tex file. Update example_rcfiles/asymptote_latexmkrc. Update example_rcfiles/splitindex_latexmkrc. Add example_rcfiles/memoize_latexmkrc. Improve detection of need to run makeindex (solves non-detection when imakeidx package is used with splitindex option). Implement final-output directory, with option -out2dir, variables $out2_dir, @out2_exts. Document hook mechanism. Document $allow_subdir_creation variable.

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.
