For now it's still using a makefile as both Bertrand and I are linux 
users, texmaker has a tool to handle this kind of job but what if the 
contributor works with texwork (which is now the default editor for 
miktex) or TeXnicCenter.

I think I'll make a good old .bat to do the compilation on Windows (as I 
just have WinXp I don't know if this tool still works in vista/7).
