It will log requests like "please rerun +LaTeX" or "please run BibTeX on file X" to an external XML file +which lists all open tasks in a machine-readable format. Compiler +scripts and integrated LaTeX editing environments may parse this +file to determine the next steps in the workflow in a way that is +more efficient than parsing the main log file. In sum, the package +will do two things: 1) enable package authors to use LaTeX commands +to issue requests, 2) collect all requests from all packages and +write them to an external XML file at the end of the document. + +LICENSE + +Copyright (c) 2010 Philipp Lehman.
