No it is not! I am working on large articles. makeindex and pdfcrop 
command I have always in a separate window and terminal. Since working 
with linux I usually have 12 different desktop windows. If I would 
program individual makeindex-commands and the different files into 
auctex, i would certainly get lost. I have managed to prepare a makefile 
and run make. But for ps2pdf, pdfcrop, once the commands are typed, I re-
run them as often as necessary, till I am satisfied with the results. 

And for a complex makeindex-run, a batch file can be re-used!
