[AUCTeX] shortcut to compile latex only

[Jonas Frey]

Hi,

I want to set up a shortcut to only compile latex in auctex, circumventing
the automation and guessing of the usual TeX-compile-master command. How
can I do that?

How can I get a shortcut corresponding to

C-c C-c RET LaTeX RET

bound eg to a function key?

Thanks!

Best,

Jonas

Hi Jonas,

try with

(define-key TeX-mode-map [f8] [?\C-c ?\C-c ?l ?a ?t ?e ?x return])

you can add it to the LaTeX-mode-hook. But probably there's a more elegant solution.

Cheers,
J

​great that seems to work

except that there should be some upper case letters:​

Thanks a lot!

Hi Jonas,

Glad to hear it works. It also works with lowercase letters; in fact, I think it should work with just [?\C-c ?\C-c ?l ?a return])​ or even just the "l". AUCTeX is smart ;)

I think the more elegant solution would be to use elisp:

(define-key TeX-mode-map [f8]
(lambda () (interactive) (TeX-command "LaTeX" 'TeX-master-file)))
