Suggestion: enhanced Linux Typset menu #839

In widows, the Typeset menu includes options for bibliographies and inexes, and uses texify to determin how many times to compile the source. While texify itself diesn't exist for Linux, equivalents are available, e.g., latexmk. It would be useful if the Typeset menu in Linux had the same functionality as in windows.

Sorry for the very late response. What I'm suggesting is default entries in the Typesetting menu for the latexmk program with appropriate options, e.g., -synctex=1, -lualatex, $fullname.
