The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: TeX::AutoTeX
DSLIP: bdpOp
description: Automatic TeX processing
userid: TSCHWAND (Thorsten Schwander)
chapterid: 11 (String_Lang_Text_Proc)

similar:
LaTeX::Driver
rationale:
This module is used by arXiv (http://arXiv.org/) to automatically
process a wide variety of TeX and (PDF-)LaTeX source packages. arXiv
processes more than 600,000 scientific papers with code used in this
module.
It interfaces with comprehensive TeX installations like TeXLive and
allows to generate PostScript and PDF from (arbitrary) TeX sources
based on file type and dependency analysis and application of a
collection of heuristic rules.
Our approach is unique in that it doesn't require individual
configuration or Makefiles or specific rule sets.
The namespace TeX::AutoTeX makes it clear that this is a interface
to TeX and captures the automatic nature of the processing.
We have had many request to publish the code for people to inspect
and use for their own purposes.
