I was thinking of making a (script) frontend to LaTeX to get the
desired output (PS usually) but *not* have the extra temporary junk
lying around. What I was thinking of was create a temp directory
(using some well-tested method) and cd to it. Run LaTeX from there
and then copy out the files I really want to keep. Then I would clean
up the junk afterwards. Maybe the same sort of option is available
for you?
