-%From Tugboat volume 8, number 2 july 1987
-%by Donald Knuth
-%
-% The idea is to make TeX look for a file called pages.tex. if such a
-%file doesn't exit, everything works as before, Otherwise the file
-%should contain a list of apge numbers, one per line, in the order that
-%they will be generated. After the last page number has been matched,
-%all further pages will be printed. Thus, if you want ot print pages
-%123 and all pages from 300 onwards, your file pages.tex should say
-% 123
-% 300
-%but if you want to print pages 123 and 300 only, the file should say,
-%e.g.,
-% 123
-% 300
-% -99999999999 % impossible number
-%so that the end of file will never occur.
