Support for automation of the LaTeX workflow
The package helps to automate a typical LaTeX workflow that involves running LaTeX several times, running tools such as BibTeX or makeindex, and so on. It will log requests like ``please rerun LaTeX'' or ``please run BibTeX on file X'' to an external XML file which lists all open tasks in a machine-readable format. Compiler scripts and integrated LaTeX editing environments may parse this file to determine the next steps in the workflow. In sum, the package will do two things: enable package authors to use LaTeX commands to issue requests, collect all requests from all packages and write them to an external XML file at the end of the document.
