+%%% The grfpaste package
+
+%%% LaTeX support for TeXplorators / M. Spivak dvipaste program
+%%% David Carlisle
+
+
+This package can redistributed and/or modified under the terms
+of the LaTeX Project Public License Distributed from CTAN
+archives in directory macros/latex/base/lppl.txt; either
+version 1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
+
+Dvipaste comes with a plain TeX based set of macros in a file
+dvipaste.tex that provide an interface to the dvipaste program. That
+file works perfectly well in LaTeX with only minor modifications
+(specifically using \@@line instead of \line, and \c@page instead of
+\pageno). A dvipaste.sty constructed by just such modifications may be
+found distributed with Jean-Pierre Drucbert's `export' package on ctan.
+However I thought that it would be more in the `LaTeX spirit'
+to provide an interface via the existing LaTeX graphics package.
+
+The files produced by this grfpaste package should be fully compatible
+with dvipaste.tex or dvipaste.sty. That is, if dvi fragments are
+created using the plain TeX interface they may be included using
+\includegraphics via this package, and conversely if this package is
+used with the [write] or [writepages] options to produce a file of dvi
+fragments for including in another file, then the dvi file (and it's
+accompanying `.dat' file of size information) may be included either
+with this package, or via the original dvipaste.tex interface.
+
+Currently the LaTeX interface uses the graphicx package, it would be
+possible to also provide an interface to the more basic graphics
+package, but that is not done here.
+
+The package is used in one of two forms.
+
+1 Producing DVI Fragments
+=========================
+
+1a Writing out boxes.
+===========================
+
+ \documentclass{article}
+
+ \usepackage[write]{grfpaste}
+
+ \begin{document}
+
+ \sendout{\parbox[b]{2cm}{one \sf two three \tt four \it five}}
+
+ \sendout[abc]{hello}
+
+ \sendout{\parbox[t]{2cm}{one \sf two three \tt four \it five}}
+
+ \end{document}
+
+
+If the package is used with the [write] option then the document should
+just consist of \sendout commands, the argument of each will be marked
+as a `fragment' that may be pasted into another DVI file by the dvipaste
+program. An auxiliary file with extension .dat will be created which
+contains the size of each of these fragments. Normally the fragments
+will be accessed by their number, starting from 1, but you may
+optionally supply a label, as in `abc' above which allows fragments to
+be referenced more easily. The above example forms the example
+document grfp1.tex in this distribution.
+
+1b Writing out whole pages.
+===========================
+
+ \documentclass{article}
+
+ \usepackage[writepages]{grfpaste}
+
+ \begin{document}
+ ...
+ \end{document}
+
+
+If the package is used with the [writepages] option then each
+indivdual page will be marked as a `fragment' for later processing by
+dvipaste. The fragments will be numbered consecutively, starting from
+1, whatever the value of the page counter. See the example document
+grfp2.tex.
+
+
+
+
+2 Using DVI Fragments
+=========================
+
+
+ \documentclass{article}
+
+ \usepackage{grfpaste}
+
+ \begin{document}
+
+ aaa\fbox{\includegraphics
+ [num=1,natheight=19,natdepth=2pt,natwidth=57]{grfp1.dvi}}bbb
+
+ xxx\fbox{\includegraphics[num=2]{grfp1.dvi}}yyy
+
+ xxx\fbox{\includegraphics[ref=abc]{grfp1.dvi}}yyy
+
+ Page 3 of grfp2.dvi:
+ aaa\fbox{\includegraphics[num=3]{grfp2}}bbb
+
+ \end{document}
+
+To use the fragments then load the package with no option (or
+equivalently with the [include] option). You may also use any options
+understood by the graphicx package, these will be passed on to graphicx
+which is loaded by this package.
+
+To load the first fragment of a given dvi file you just need
+ \includegraphics{filename} or \includegraphics{filename.dvi}
+(.dvi is added as one of the default extensions by this package)
+
+To access later fragments then you use the new num=?? key to specify
+the fragment number, as demonstrated above. If there are a lot of
+fragments maintaining the correct number may be inconvenient so you
+may instead use the ref= key to refer to a label previously supplied
+by the \sendout command. Note this label information is added to the
+.dat file in the form of a comment(after %) and so the .dat file is
+still compatible with dvipaste.tex, but if that is used, then the
+numeric form must be used. Thus the two examples above with num=2
+and ref=abc include the same fragment from the file grfp1.dvi.
+
+
+Normally the size of the graphic is read from the `.dat' file which is
+the `read file' for the dvi graphic type, in the terminoligy of the
+graphics package documentation. If you have lost the .dat file, or
+wish to override it with altered sizes, you may specify the natural
+size using the natheight, natwidth and natdepth keys. As usual these
+take a dimension but the units may be omitted in which case bp are
+assumed. natheight and natwidth are standard graphicx keys, but
+natdepth is new, as these fragments are TeX boxes, so have height and
+depth, unlike most other graphic formats that may be included, which
+always have zero depth.
+
+The \sendout command defined by the [write] option matches that used
+in the plain TeX support, but the plain TeX version does not use
+\includegraphics to include the fragment. It defines a command \paste
+to achieve this. In order to help move documents between the two
+versions, a [defpaste] option is provided for this package which
+specifies that a compatible \paste command should be defined. It is
+defined to be the equivalent call to \includegraphics,
+\includegraphics[num=#2]{#1}.
+
+See the example file grfp3.tex to see examples of including dvi
+fragments.
+
+
+3 Putting it all together
+=========================
+
+a) Produce one or more files of fragments using
+ LaTeX and this package with the [write] or [writepages] options.
+ (or plain TeX using dvipaste.tex).
+
+b) LaTeX your master document, including this package and using
+ \includegraphics to include the fragments at the appropriate points.
+
+ At this stage the file will have blank spaces (but if the correct
+ size) at the points where the dvi fragments should appear
+
+c) Run dvipaste on the master dvi file. It will incorporate the
+ fragments and re-write the file.
+
+d) Preview or print the modified dvi file in your usual manner.
+
+
+4 Running the examples
+=========================
+
+grfp1.tex is an example of using the [write] option
+grfp2.tex is an example of using the [writepages] option
+grfp3.tex is an example of using the [include] option
+
+To process the final document (grfp3.dvi) the following steps need be
+taken.
+
+latex grfp1
+latex grfp2
+latex grfp2
+latex grfp3
+dvipaste grfp3
+
+Note that grfp2 needs to be processed twice to generate a full table of
+contents. After grfp3.tex is processed by LaTeX the dvi file will show
+blank spaces at the points that the fragments are to be included. These
+will be filled in by running dvipaste, after which the grfp3.dvi may be
+processed by your driver in the normal way.
+
+
+5 Compiling dvipaste.c
+======================
+
+ /* config.h for LINUX machines for dvipaste.c (DPC) */
+
+
+ #define ANSI
+ #undef MICROSOFTC
+ #define LITTLENDIAN
+
+ /* I guess this is what was meant. */
+ /* (dvipaste.c defines strcmp to itself */
+ /* leaving stricmp undefined) .*/
+ #ifndef MICROSOFTC
+ #define strnicmp strncmp
+ #define stricmp strcmp
+ #endif
+
+ #ifdef ANSI
+ /* Other things in ANSI C are good, but this is a crock */
+ #define READ_BINARY "rb"
+ #define WRITE_BINARY "wb"
+ #else
+ /* The good old simple and logical K&R I/O */
+ #define READ_BINARY "r"
+ #define WRITE_BINARY "w"
+ #endif
+
+
+When I tried compiling dvipaste.c I got error due to the function
+stricmp being undefined. The file has a circular definition of strcmp
+to itself which looks like a typo, so I corrected that by making
+stricmp an alias for strcmp by altering config.h as above (which also
+sets LITTLENDIAN for Linux. It seems to work for me, but no promises.
+
+The above suggested config.h leaves stricmp meaning the same thing as
+strcmp (string comparison). Jean-Pierre Drucbert points out that
+stricmp is (on systems that it is defined) a case-insensitive
+comparison function, and that rather than the crude substitution above
+one may define it as follows.
+
+ str{n}icmp is not available on all systems. So I got the
+ following code in ci.c :
+
+ #include <ctype.h>
+ #include "config.h"
+ /*
+ * str{n}icmp - case-insensitive flavors of strcmp(), strncmp()
+ */
+ #ifdef PROTOS
+ int stricmp(register char *s1,
+ register char *s2)
+ #else
+ int stricmp(s1, s2)
+ register char *s1, *s2;
+ #endif
+ {
+ register char c1, c2;
+
+ for ( ; (c1 = TOLOWER(*s1)) == (c2 = TOLOWER(*s2)); s1++, s2++)
+ if (c1 == '\0')
+ return 0;
+
+ return c1 - c2;
+ }
+
+
+ #ifdef PROTOS
+ int strnicmp(register char *s1,
+ register char *s2,
+ int n)
+ #else
+ int strnicmp(s1, s2, n)
+ register char *s1, *s2;
+ int n;
+ #endif
+ {
+ register char c1, c2;
+
+ for ( ; --n >= 0 &&
+ (c1 = TOLOWER(*s1)) == (c2 = TOLOWER(*s2)); s1++, s2++)
+ if (c1 == '\0')
+ return 0;
+
+ return n < 0 ? 0 : c1 - c2;
+ }
+
+
+
+
+
+By default dvipaste.c has
+#define STRINGSIZE (5124) /* maximum string size */
+
+Jean-Pierre Drucbert commented:
+
+ it is necessary to increase STRINGSIZE if you paste a lot of dvi
+ pieces (I increased it from 40592 to 2597888). In practice, do
+ not export more than ~100 pieces from one file. You can import a
+ lot more into one file. So it is preferable to import from
+ several files if you have more than 100 pieces to import.
