My ~/.latexmkrc file is below. It appears I have extra functions for making glossaries and working with PythonTeX. There is plenty of support for latexmk on TeX.SE https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/latexmk Since I turn on preview_continuous_mode in my ~/.latexmkrc, I need to explicitly turn it off if I am calling latexmk from Org, hence the "-pvc-" option here: (setq org-latex-pdf-process (list "/usr/texbin/latexmk -f -gg -pvc- %f")) But as I said, I find I prefer to bring up a terminal in the directory where I am working, and dedicate it to running 'latexmk' in continuous monitoring mode. When I want to clean up a project I'll run "latexmk -c file.tex" to discard all of the temporary files. I have Skim.app or Preview.app (OS X PDF viewers) open the PDF file. I edit Org files, export to LaTeX (C-c C-e l l), and then keep working while the PDF regenerates. -k. # BEGIN ~/.latexmkrc $pdf_mode = 1; $preview_continuous_mode = 1; $new_viewer_always = 1; $silent = 1; # don't stop on errors $verbose = 0; #$halt_on_error = 1; $clean_ext = 'bbl run.xml %R-blx.bib acn glo xdy synctex.gz'; # continue past errors $force_mode = 1; $shell_escape = 1; # shell escape $pdflatex = 'pdflatex --shell-escape -file-line-error -synctex=1 %O %S'; # $pdf_previewer = 'open -a /Applications/Preview.app'; $pdf_previewer = 'open -a /Users/mankoff/local/Applications/Skim.app'; # Sage: # http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.mathematics.sage.support/17166 # glossaries http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/1226/how-to-make-latexmk-use-makeglossaries add_cus_dep('glo', 'gls', 0, 'makeglo2gls'); sub makeglo2gls { system("makeindex -s '$_[0]'.ist -t '$_[0]'.glg -o '$_[0]'.gls '$_[0]'.glo"); } # PythonTeX add_cus_dep('pytxcode', 'pyg', 0, 'pythontexcompile'); sub pythontexcompile { system("pythontex.py $_[0]"); }
