I think it's fair to say that only a computer scientist would write a 'makefile' in order to invoke latex to produce all their application letters for the jobs that they are applying to. I think it's also fair to say that there's no obvious reason why I have done this, since it probably doesn't save any time overall, and if anything complicates the process and makes it slower. But, you know, anything to avoid actually doing some work or having to think about something.
