The pstool package
==================

A package like `pst-pdf` for processing PostScript graphics
with psfrag labels within pdfLaTeX documents. The difference
with this package is that every graphic is compiled individually,
drastically speeding up compilation time when only a single
figure needs re-processing.

An example and a testsuite is available in the source repository
for the package: <https://github.com/wspr/pstool>

Please see the PDF documentation for further information.
