SYNOPSIS
texdirflatten [-1|--onetex] [-f|--file input.tex] [-o outputdir]
- [-?|--help]
+ [--imgexts .ext1,.ext2,...] [--debug] [-V|--version] [-?|--help]
DESCRIPTION
- It parses the source file, following its included children (La)TeX files
- recursively, to collect together its components, such as graphics and
- BiBTeX bibliography files in different directories.
+ This Perl script parses a LaTeX file recursively, scanning all child
+ files, and collects details of any included and other data files, such
+ as graphics and BiBTeX bibliography files. These component files, are
+ then all put into a single directory (thus "flattening" the document's
+ directory tree). This is useful in distributing manuscripts to
+ collaborators or in submitting to journals.

file, graphics and bibliography file to this directory. It will be
created if it is unexistent. If unspecified, it defaults to "flat/".
+ --imgexts *.ext1,.ext2[,...]*
+ Prepends to the prioritized list of image extensions to search when
+ trying to find the image to copy to output folder. The first file
+ with the extension found will be copied and search stopped. Default
+ order is "", ".eps", ".pdf", ".pstex" (note that it includes files
+ with no extension). If using pdflatex, one may want to add PDF
+ before EPS with "--imgexts .pdf". Don't forget the dot before the
+ extension!
+
+ --debug
+ Enables copious amounts of debugging output - useful if something is
+ going wrong.
+
+ --version, -V
+ Displays the current version number and the usage and exits.
