Howdy,

To more closely duplicate the argument list used for dvips by  
simpdftex (i.e., latex+distiller processing in TeXShop) I've changed  
the latexmkrc file that is placed in ~/Library/TeXShop/bin/. If  
you've started to ``play'' with latexmk just download the latest  
version of LatexmkTeXShop.zip and replace the latexmkrc file with the  
new one.

For those of you who haven't tried it out, latexmk automatically runs  
xe/pdf/latex and then bibtex and/or makeindex, if necessary, and xe/ 
pdf/latex enough times to properly create the bibliography and/or the  
index and resolve cross references.

Although my uses are simple, if you rerun latexmk and change a source  
file it is supposed do the proper re-compiles, etc.

You can download a version set up for TeXShop (using engine files)  
from <http://homepage.mac.com/herbs2/>.

Good Luck,

Herb Schulz
