This is release 2.00 of the ltxfileinfo script
License: GPL

Short description:
ltxfileinfo is a bash script; it prints information about a latex class,
style and other files to standard output.
The script is based on Uwe Lueck's readprov.sty, so it prints information
only for files that contain a \ProvidesFile, \ProvidesClass or
\ProvidesPackage statement.
The script tries to correct errors in these \Provides... statements and it
has options, useful for developers, to make errors in those statements visible.

Usage example:

$ ltxfileinfo article.cls
name: article.cls
date: 2007/10/19
vers: v1.4h
info: Standard LaTeX document class
loca: /usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf-dist/tex/latex/base/article.cls

major changes of release 2.00 relative to 1.1
- completely rewritten as a bash script, using code from readprov.sty
- now also can evaluate xelatex oriented files
- can now handle any LaTeX file containing a \Provides... statement
- options for \Provides... statement validation
