I often export body only, and then just write a wrapper template with exactly 
what I want and that inputs the exported file. Then I just compile manually. 
With org-fragtog I get live rendering of the LaTeX without needing to compile. 
So I don't compile very often and the manual part doesn't really bother me. 
This just seems easier for me with different exports depending on whether I'm 
writing a paper, lecture notes, excessive sheets etc.

I've been meaning to configure something that's a bit more automated, possibly 
using publish.el but haven't got around to it.

Thanks for the great work! With org-mode and LaTeX export, I really don't like 
editing LaTeX directly anymore and only do so when collaborating with others. 
I've been pondering how to keep an org document and a TeX document in sync for 
this purpose but don't have any ideas. Seems like it could get quite tricky. I 
think with everything in git in might be manageable in a semi-automated way 
though.

Cheers,
Paul.
