Writting publications, like scientific articles, thesis and report, is a good piece of work. To help myself into this process, I have compiled a small package that include a makefile to help building latex documents.

You can get it here. An example file is also proposed here.

Updates:

• 07/23/2008: ignore every files that are in fig/ subdirectories.

This work have been inspired by Guillaume Damiand[[!sic damiand]] for the workflow structure and use some of the tricks proposed by The Ultimate Latex Makefile.
