I was looking for a workaround to the inability of OSX texlive to specify an aux_dir (i.e., "pdflatex: (Pdf)LaTeX failed to generate the expected log file").
Since initially posting this thread, I have a devised a couple of solutions:

TeX Live and MacTeX ⇒ Create two identical *.pdf in different directories.
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
