texexec for latex?

texexec for latex?

[Adam Megacz]

Hello folks,

Does anybody know if there is something like "texexec" for latex
users?  Specifically, I'm hoping for a single command that runs the
pdflatex/bibtex combination as many times as is required to reach a
fixed point.

Thanks,

There are many such scripts; the two that I remember immediately are

latexmk: http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/support/latexmk/
rubber: http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~beffara/soft/rubber/
