New CTAN Package: typeoutfileinfo
by CTAN Announcements 14 Mar '12

14 Mar '12

On Tue, 13 Mar 2012 Uwe Lück submitted the typeoutfileinfo package. Summary description: screen info display for single LaTeX source file License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- `typeoutfileinfo.sh' is a shell script for Unices. It runs LaTeX on a here document that reads the file info using the readprov package and shows it by ypeout, that's it (hoping that the latex binary won't add a lengthy report of the run). Thus it aims to be a minimalistic alternative to the latexfileversion and ltxfileinfo packages. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/support/typeoutfileinfo . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/typeoutfileinfo (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org . Please join a users group; see http://www.tug.org/usergroups.html . ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Rainer Schöpf
