Thanks for sharing this. And I agree, the process output buffer is
probably not visible all the time.

I hope you will figure out how to implement this :-)

I think this is would be a nice addition to AUCTeX, but keep in mind
that AUCTeX currently requires Emacs 25 and higher. Your package says
;; Package-Requires: ((emacs "28.0"))
Question: Is it possible that the wrench disappears after successful
compilation, say after X seconds? I had the impression that it is
currently "sticky" -- or should I just wait longer?
Best, Arash
