NAME
texdirflatten - Collects all components of a (La)TeX file in a single
output directory -- i.e., flattens its hierarchy.
SYNOPSIS
texdirflatten [-1|--onetex] [-f|--file input.tex] [-o outputdir]
[--imgexts .ext1,.ext2,...] [--debug] [-V|--version] [-?|--help]
DESCRIPTION
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.
OPTIONS
--file, -f *input.tex*
Specifies input (La)TeX file.
--onetex, -1
If specified, produces a single TeX file by expanding all \input and
\include commands in place.
--output, -o *outputdir*
Directory to collect all files. texdirflatten will copy each source
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.
--help, -?
Show this manual page.
EXAMPLES
The following example scans "manuscript.tex" in the current directory
and gathers it and all its components in the "submit_01/" directory:
$ texdirflatten -f manuscript.tex -o submit_01
CAVEATS
Please take backups before running this command. No warranties
whatsoever provided.
You may need to run "epstopdf" on EPS files if you are using "pdflatex":
$ for i in *.eps; do epstopdf $i; done
BUGS
Bug reports and patches are welcome.
