I have
developed a GNU Makefile for use with LaTeX documents. It runs LaTeX
multiple times to try to resolve undefined references, runs
bibtex and makeindex only if it detects that it is
necessary to. It also hides all of LaTeX's verbose output except for
warnings that occured in the final run of LaTeX. If an error occurs,
all of the output from LaTeX is printed to the screen. All of the
output that is hidden is stored as log files in a directory named
"tmp". It also can use dvips and ps2pdf to create
PostScript and PDF output.
