Add an optional parameter to make the script run latex only once to

generate an .aux file.  This can make HTML generation a bit faster
when print formats aren't needed.

Explained parameters in a comment.

+#  Build one of the simple documents.  This can be used to create the DVI,
+#  PDF, or LaTeX "aux" files.  It can accept one of three optional parameters:
+#
+#  --aux	Create only the LaTeX .aux file
+#  --dvi	Create the DeVice Independent output
+#  --pdf	Create Adobe PDF output
+#
+#  If no parameter is given, DVI output is produced.
+#
+#  One positional parameter is required:  the "base" of the document to
+#  format.  For the standard Python documentation, this will be api, ext,
+#  lib, mac, ref, or tut.
