CTAN Update: ctanify
by CTAN Announcements 20 Jun '13

20 Jun '13

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the ctanify package. Summary description: Prepare a package for upload to CTAN License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ctanify is intended for developers of LaTeX packages who want to distribute their packages via the Comprehensive TeX Archive Network (CTAN). Given a list of filenames, ctanify creates a tarball (a .tar.gz file) with the files laid out in CTAN's preferred structure. The tarball additionally contains a ZIP (.zip) file with copies of all files laid out in the standard TeX Directory Structure (TDS), which facilitates inclusion of the package in the TeX Live distribution of TeX. Version 1.4 of ctanify replaces jobname in the .ins file with the base name of the package (requested by Marco Daniel) and corrects some troff macro usage in the man page (requested by Eric S. Raymond). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/support/ctanify . More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/ctanify (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 .
