No need to reinvent the wheel; just run texinfo (2.16) under emacs
with a running TeXview. 
Texinfo allows you to TeX the buffer (or region), run texindex, and 
the  reTeX-ed file will show up in TeXview. All of these with simple
keystrokes (such as C-c C-c C-t, C-c C-c C-i, C-c C-c C-t for the
whole cycle)
After all Texinfo is an integral part of gnu-emacs and is as simple to
use as can be.

Happy Gnu Year!
