I am about to start writing my PhD thesis. Currently I am using TeXmaker as LaTeX editor. I have written a couple of articles with it so far, so I know it more or less
I have now a template for the PhD thesis. In this template, there is a global source file called "phd.tex". The chapters of the thesis are included in this file one by one so that I can comment some of them if I want while I am writing my thesis. So it's quite handy.
What is not handy is that, for example, when I am writing the introduction part, if I want to compile it, I need to go to the "phd.tex" file and compile it from there. I don't know how many times during my writing I will do this process but I find it time consuming and unnecessary. I want to have a kind of shortcut to compile "phd.tex" while I am on the introduction.tex file. I tried to change user settings for this purpose but failed.
I appreciate your help about this issue.
