Re: Example of Make file for Org Mode LaTeX to pdf

Fraid I don't have a makefile but I do have a CMakeLists.txt that CMake
uses to generate a makefile.  This method uses a CMake module called
UseLATEX.cmake to generate the PDF.  I haven't used it for a couple of
years so it might be a bit outdated.

The CMakeLists.txt also contains an example of how to generate all the R
graphics for the document.

If it looks a bit over complicated for your requirements perhaps just
looking at the line that contains "COMMAND emacs" would be useful for
you.

Hopefully someone else will show a nice, simple, self-contained example.
