Not really: looking at the code, publishing does all its work in the current directory, then moves the final file to its place (leaving all the mess compilation made behind). I understand the reason for such a thing: publishing should only publish the final result. In other words, I see three places of interest: - where the org file is - where export and compilation occurs - where the final result is put Publishing lets us deal with the last one, but I don't think there is a way to distinguish between the first two. > Btw, please commit your changes to org-e-beamer.el when you have > validated your FSF papers. By "validating", do you mean that I have received them back signed from the FSF? (I signed and sent them a few weeks ago, still waiting to get them back ...) Alan
