Each time I update my lecture slides I have to remember to compile the overlay version (for me to aid my presentation) as well as a handout version (for the students to print and take notes on). Right now, I manually add or remove the "handout" options, i.e. I use

\documentclass[handout]{beamer}

for handouts and

\documentclass[]{beamer}

for overlays.

Can I just get the LaTeX compiler to do both in one run?

    Welcome to the site! I'd use arara for this, as detailed in a similar question: http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/173532/two-pdf-versions-from-one-single-tex-file Maybe a duplicate?... – cmhughes Jan 21 '16 at 15:43
  • You could also create a separate file, say called notes-handout.tex and put in it \PassOptionsToClass{handout}{beamer}\input{notes.tex} and then write a script to compile both files – darthbith Jan 21 '16 at 15:51
