extract v1.9 ------------ This package can be used to (conditionally) extract specific commands and environments from a source file and write them to a target file. This can be done without significant changes to the source document, but labels inside the source can be used for more flexibility. The package also provides environments to write code directly to the target file or use code in both the source and the target file. These tools allow one to generate ready-to-run files from a source document, containing only the extracted material, in an otherwise ordinary LaTeX run. See for more information the pdf documentation of this package. Installation ------------ First check whether this package can be installed by the distribution that you use, since that will simplify installation. For manual installations, the structure and supposed location in a TDS compliant TeX-tree is shown in the overview below. In words, extract.sty should be available to LaTeX. Don't forget to update your filename database after installing the files. CTAN:/macros/latex/contrib/extract: official location | |- readme : should not be installed |- extract.dtx: /source/latex/extract |- extract.pdf: /doc/latex/extract `- extract.sty: /tex/latex/extract The package includes pregenerated run and doc files, but you can reproduce them from the source if necessary. See the first lines of extract.dtx for information how to do this. Example files can be produced by running the file extract.dtx with LaTeX once. See the documentation of your LaTeX distribution or the TeX Frequently Asked Questions for more information on installing extract into your LaTeX distribution (http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=instpackages).
