+# MAIN LATEXMK RULE
+
+# -pdf tells latexmk to generate a PDF instead of DVI.
+# -pdflatex="" tells latexmk to call a specific backend with specific options.
+# -use-make tells latexmk to call make for generating missing files.
+# -interaction=nonstopmode keeps the pdflatex backend from stopping at a
+# missing file reference and interactively asking you for an alternative.
+# -synctex=1 is required to jump between the source PDF and the text editor.
+# -pvc (preview continuously) watches the directory for changes.
+# -quiet suppresses most status messages (https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/40783/can-i-make-latexmk-quieter).
