Now, all works smoothly. The problem reported here is caused by my
mismatching configuration of latexmk and the Emacs smart-compile
package. Here is the current working configuration:
The latexmk configuration:
werner@X10DAi:~$ grep -v '^[ ]*#' ~/.latexmkrc | awk 'NF >0'
$show_time=1;
$pdf_mode = 1;
$pdflatex = "pdflatex -shell-escape -file-line-error -halt-on-error
-interaction=nonstopmode -synctex=1 %O %S";
$bibtex = "bibtex %O %S";
$bibtex_use = 2;
$makeindex = "makeindex %O -o %D %S";
$silence_logfile_warnings = 1;
add_cus_dep( 'acn', 'acr', 0, 'makeglossaries' );
add_cus_dep( 'glo', 'gls', 0, 'makeglossaries' );
$clean_ext .= " acr acn alg glo gls glg";
sub makeglossaries {
my ($base_name, $path) = fileparse( $_[0] );
pushd $path;
my $return = system "makeglossaries", $base_name;
popd;
return $return;
}
add_cus_dep( 'svg', 'pdf', 0, 'makesvg2pdf' );
sub makesvg2pdf {
system( "inkscape \"$_[0].svg\" --export-pdf=\"$_[0].pdf\"" );
}
$pdf_previewer = 'evince %O %S';
The Emacs init.el configuration:
(defvar hz/AUCTeX-process nil)
(use-package smart-compile
:init
(declare-function smart-compile-string "smart-compile")
(defun run-latexmk ()
(when (string-match ".tex$" (buffer-file-name))
(unless (and (processp hz/AUCTeX-process)
(eq (process-status hz/AUCTeX-process) 'run))
(let ((buf (get-buffer-create "*Background TeX proccess*")))
(with-current-buffer buf (erase-buffer)) ;; flush previous log
(setq hz/AUCTeX-process
(start-process-shell-command
"Background TeX" buf
;; use an external application as the previewer
(smart-compile-string "latexmk -pv %f")
;; use pdf-tools
;; (smart-compile-string "latexmk %f")
))))))
(define-minor-mode AutoTeX-mode
"Mode for compiling latex sources and creating PDFs after saving."
:global nil
:lighter " Auto"
(if AutoTeX-mode
(add-hook 'after-save-hook 'run-latexmk t t)
(remove-hook 'after-save-hook 'run-latexmk t)))
:hook (LaTeX-mode . (lambda () (AutoTeX-mode 1))))
N.B.: In fact, we discussed the similar question a long time ago on
this list [1-2].
