You might be more happy with something like latexmk (Perl) or rubber (Python). At least the former will auto-compile every time a change is detected, and quite fast! A similar project called latex-daemon exists for Win. For example ,---- | latexmk main.tex --pvc `---- you could also use the --pdf flag, or add something like the following to your ~/.latexmk file ,---- | $pdflatex = 'pdflatex --interaction nonstopmode --synctex=-1 %O %S'; `---- Whether AUCTeX easily handles a deamon, I simply don't know. –Rasmus -- Sent from my Emacs _______________________________________________ auctex mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/auctex
