Some time back I asked about compilation in a subdirectory, some suggestions were given about using output-directory or similar, but each has its own share of bugs, so I gave up on that.
After some more thought, however, would something like this be workable? A step-by-step process:- 1. When compile is called (from \ll or from the menu or command-line) for the first time, perform compilation as usual. 2. After compilation finishes (or errors out), move all files with the extensions .aux, .bbl, .log, .out, and .blg (perhaps some more?) to a folder (maybe ./tmp) 3. When compile is called again, mv all files with the extensions mentioned before from ./tmp back to the calling directory, then work as usual. Notes:- 1. The extensions handled this way should probably be editable. 2. The usual compile process should not be affected if this is implemented. 3. Files should still be moved after compile fails to keep the main directory tidy. This may require changes to the error browser (simplest may be to hard-code the temp directory name and just always look for errors there) Please comment whether this is a good idea. As far as I can see this would not require major changes (not that I know how the entire suite actually works). The number of files in my main directory is getting to be slightly annoying, and I can't imagine I'm alone in that. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Colocation vs. Managed Hosting A question and answer guide to determining the best fit for your organization - today and in the future. http://p.sf.net/sfu/internap-sfd2d _______________________________________________ Vim-latex-devel mailing list Vim-latex-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/vim-latex-devel
