With the help of the code of the TeX-texify
function I have developed a function that does what I want, the code is given below.
I'd like to thank user4815162342
; although this solution is not based on his suggestion, I think his solution might be of use for a different problem. Also I'd like to thank TN
, the author of TeX-texify
, I shamelessly took and adapted his code for my problem. ;)
(defcustom TeX-MultiTeX-Command "LaTeX"
"Default MultiTeX command"
:type 'string :group 'TeX-command)
(defun TeX-MultiTeX-sentinel (&optional proc sentinel)
"Non-interactive! Call the standard-sentinel of the current LaTeX-process.
If there is still something left do do start the next latex-command."
(set-buffer (process-buffer proc))
(funcall TeX-MultiTeX-sentinel proc sentinel)
(let ((case-fold-search nil))
(when (string-match "\\(finished\\|exited\\)" sentinel)
(set-buffer TeX-command-buffer)
(unless (plist-get TeX-error-report-switches (intern (TeX-master-file)))
(TeX-MultiTeX TeX-MultiTeX-num-left)))))
(defun TeX-MultiTeX (n)
"Run TeX-command n-times"
(interactive "nRun TeX/LaTeX how many times: ")
(when (or (called-interactively-p 'any)
(null (boundp 'TeX-MultiTeX-num-left)))
(setq TeX-MultiTeX-num-left n))
(if (>= TeX-MultiTeX-num-left 1)
(progn

(setq TeX-MultiTeX-num-left (- TeX-MultiTeX-num-left 1))
(setq proc (get-buffer-process (current-buffer)))
(setq TeX-MultiTeX-sentinel (process-sentinel proc))
(set-process-sentinel proc 'TeX-MultiTeX-sentinel))))
