+____________
+AUTO-PST-PDF
+
+BASIC USAGE
+This package provides a wrapper around pst-pdf to automatically
+accomodate for typesetting either with DVI or PDF output. With
+default package option [on], typesetting under pdfLaTeX will
+automatically initiate a LaTeX->dvips->ps2pdf->pdfcrop run to
+generate the required PDF figures for the document.
+
+After this has been done and the figures no longer need to be
+re-generated, the package can be given the [off] option to save
+compilation time.
+
+REQUIREMENTS
+pdfTeX must be called with the --shell-escape option, and Heiko
+Oberdiek's pdfcrop Perl script must be installed.
+
+Loads the following packages for convenience:
+ color,graphicx,psfrag,pst-pdf
+
+Requires e-TeX because I'm lazy.
+
+ADDITIONAL USAGE
+Macros are provided to easily facilitate figures created by the
+MATLAB package laprint and the Mathematica package MathPSfrag. Also,
+a generic psfrag wrapper is provided.
+
+ \mathfig{<filename>} - insert a Mathematica graphic
+ (without -psfrag suffix)
+ \matlabfig{<filename>} - insert a Matlab graphic
+ \psfragfig{<filename>} - insert an EPS with psfrag statements
+ in either or both of the files
+ <document>-psfrag.tex
+ <filename>-psfrag.tex
+
+The above commands also accept an optional argument
+which is passed to \includegraphics.
