+ | FILECONTENTS: |
+ | |
+ | Improved version of LaTeX2e's filecontents |
+ | and filecontents* environments |
+ | |
+ | By Scott Pakin, scott+fc@pakin.org |
+ +--------------------------------------------+
+
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+LaTeX2e's filecontents and filecontents* environments enable a LaTeX
+source file to generate external files as it's run through latex.
+However, there are two limitations of these environments: They refuse
+to overwrite existing files; and, they can be used only before the
+\documentclass declaration. The filecontents package removes these
+limitations, making it possible to overwrite existing files and to use
+filecontents/filecontents* anywhere.
+
+
+Installation
+------------
+
+There's nothing special about building filecontents:
+
+ latex filecontents.ins <== Generate filecontents.sty
+ latex filecontents.dtx <== Produce the documentation (filecontents.dvi)
+
+If you're new to this, see
+http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=instpackages for more
+information on installing packages.
