Hm, sounds interesting, I have not used latexmk for years, so may be I
am asking something stupid, but here is what I did

    1. Downloaded, compiled and loaded your file

    2. Opened a latex file,

    3. Run tex-continuous-toggle

    4. Run TeX-view (either okular or evince)

    5. Added some text and save the file.

    6. But the corresponding pdf file was not actualized.

I am sure I miss here something, but what?

Thanks
