On Sun, 29 Apr 2012 Martin Scharrer submitted an update to the
texdef
package.
License type: gpl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This update adds the experimental --source option which will try to display the original source code
used for the macro definition. For this the (first) package/file which defines this macro is searched
and scanned for the definition. This option will work for normal definitions but break for special
ones like for verbatim macros etc.
This update fixes two issues which made this script run in an endless loop under MS Windows.
It has been now successfully tested under MS Windows.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This package is located at
http://mirror.ctan.org/support/texdef
. More information is at
http://www.ctan.org/pkg/texdef
