I don't use subfiles, but my understanding is that you can compile a single subfile without changing anything in the source code. This is particularly easy with AUCTeX, because in an included file C-c C-a (or C-c C-c) compiles the current file, instead in master file it compiles the whole document. Instead, with include mechanism you have to select every time the file to be included with \includeonly, manually editing the file whenever you want to switch between a single file or the whole document or you want to change the single file to be compiled. I don't know whether there are other advantages. Bye, Mosè _______________________________________________ auctex mailing list auctex@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/auctex
