Since Inkscape is able to incorporate TeX code , I was wondering if AucTeX could include the "-shell-escape" option to pdflatex command. This option seems to have been discussed in 2005...
The idea, has presented in this example: http://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/mirrors/ctan/info/svg-inkscape/InkscapePDFLaTeX.pdf is to compile a LaTeX file from AucTeX and to execute inkscape with a command line during the LaTeX compilation. The \write18 facility of TeX could be a window to insecurity as any shell command. But from within Emacs/AucTeX I am not highly exposed. In order to implement it in AucTeX and because I also need the --synctex=1, I did a workaround by changing in tex.el: (defvar TeX-synctex-tex-flags "-shell-escape --synctex=1" "Extra flags to pass to TeX commands to enable SyncTeX.") There is probably a way to add a clean independent defcustom with a more specific name related to shell-escape, but I don't know how.
