Yes, I think so. You would use a local variable section with something like %%% eval: (setq-local LaTeX-command %%% (concat "pdflatex '\includeonly{" %%% (buffer-file-name) %%% "}\input{main}'") But I don't think `LaTeX-command' is the right variable. Wouldn't it suffice to add the \includeonly to `TeX-command-extra-options'? And as yet another alternative: As I understand, your goal is to speed up compilation by only compiling the chapter you're currently writing on. In that case, there are already predefined commands to do exactly that. See especially ,----[ (info "(auctex)Starting a Command") ] | -- Command: LaTeX-command-section | ('C-c C-z') Query the user for a command, and apply it to the | current section (or part, chapter, subsection, paragraph, or | subparagraph). What makes the current section is determined by | 'LaTeX-command-section-level' which can be enlarged/shrunken using | 'LaTeX-command-section-change-level' ('C-c M-z'). The given | numeric prefix arg is added to the current value of | 'LaTeX-command-section-level'. By default, | 'LaTeX-command-section-level' is initialized with the current | document's 'LaTeX-largest-level'. The buffer contents are written | into the region file, after extracting the header and trailer from | the master file. The command is then actually run on the region | file. See 'TeX-command-region' for details. `---- And that doesn't even require that you split your document into one file per chapter.
