There is no dependence on any +external tools. +.IP "\(bu" 4 +There is no explicit extraction step. As the generated document is +run through \fBlatex\fR, it extracts the ancillary files and builds the +document in the same step. The user running \fBlatex\fR may not even +notice that additional files are being produced. +.PP +\&\fBarlatex\fR works by writing a number of \f(CW\*(C`\ebegin{filecontents*}\*(C'\fR\ ... +\&\f(CW\*(C`\eend{filecontents*}\*(C'\fR blocks to the output file, followed by the +contents of the master file. (In fact, any LaTeX comments at the +beginning of the master file are hoisted to the top of the generated +file. This enables the author to draw attention, if so desired, to +the fact that ancillary files will be generated.) The +\&\f(CW\*(C`filecontents*\*(C'\fR environment, part of standard LaTeX2e, writes its +contents verbatim to a specified file. +.SH "OPTIONS" +.IX Header "OPTIONS" +.IP "\fB\-\-version\fR" 4 +.IX Item "--version" +Output the \fBarlatex\fR script's version number. +.IP "\fB\-\-help\fR" 4 +.IX Item "--help" +Output brief \fBarlatex\fR usage information. +.IP "\fB\-\-document\fR=\fI.tex file\fR" 4 +.IX Item "--document=.tex file" +Specify the master document. The output from \fBarlatex\fR is this file +with all of the other files named on the command line prepended to it. +Note that \f(CW\*(C`\-\-document\*(C'\fR is a \fImandatory\fR parameter; \fBarlatex\fR will +abort with an error message if \f(CW\*(C`\-\-document\*(C'\fR is not specified. +.IP "\fB\-\-outfile\fR=\fI.tex file\fR" 4 +.IX Item "--outfile=.tex file" +Specify the output file. The output file looks just like the master +document, but with a number of \f(CW\*(C`filecontents*\*(C'\fR environments preceding +the \f(CW\*(C`\edocumentclass\*(C'\fR line. If \f(CW\*(C`\-\-outfile\*(C'\fR is not specified, output +will be written to the standard output device. +.SH "EXAMPLES" +.IX Header "EXAMPLES" +Suppose you have a paper called \fIpaper.tex\fR that loads a custom +package with \f(CW\*(C`\eusepackage{mypackage}\*(C'\fR. You want to submit the paper +to a conference, but you want to be absolutely certain that +\&\fImypackage.sty\fR doesn't get lost as your paper is shuttled from +person to person.

Fortunately, using \fBarlatex\fR +with \fBbundledoc\fR is straightforward. \fBbundledoc\fR finds all of the +files needed to build the document, and \fBarlatex\fR combines them into +a single file. The following are examples of the \f(CW\*(C`bundle:\*(C'\fR line you +might use in a \fBbundledoc\fR configuration file: +.IP "Unix:" 1 +.IX Item "Unix:" +.Vb 2 +\& bundle: (arlatex \-\-document=$BDBASE.tex $BDINPUTS \e +\& \-\-outfile=$BDBASE\-all.tex) +.Ve +.IP "Windows:" 1 +.IX Item "Windows:" +.Vb 2 +\& bundle: arlatex \-\-document=%BDBASE%.tex %BDINPUTS% \e +\& \-\-outfile=%BDBASE%\-all.tex +.Ve +.PP +See the \fBbundledoc\fR documentation for more information. +.SH "CAVEATS" +.IX Header "CAVEATS" +\&\fBarlatex\fR makes use of LaTeX2e's \f(CW\*(C`filecontents*\*(C'\fR environment. +\&\f(CW\*(C`filecontents*\*(C'\fR refuses to overwrite an existing file.
