move `auxillary' files to a different folder

Post by nich »

As I'm sure everyone who has ever used LaTeX knows, several files are created when one compiled a document. Specifically I get a performance monitor file, a text document, a BBL file and a .aux file in addition to the pdf file. Is there a way to make all these files except the pdf appear in another directory so theat I have only the .tex file and the .pdf file in the directory that I created the .tex file in?

I ask because when I have several tex documents in one directory, the folders become messy.

Thanks

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p
