CTAN Has a new package: currfile

This should within a day be at your local mirror. Jim Hef{}feron Saint Michael's College .............................................................................. The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: currfile Version number: v0.1 Author's name: Martin Scharrer Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/currfile Summary description: Macros for file name and path of input files License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package provides macros holding the file name information (dir, base name, extension, full name and full path) for files read by LaTeX's input and include macros. It uses the file hooks provided by the 'filehook' package. The package is similar to the 'fink' package, but uses a different implementation (a stack) and takes care to restore the parent file name after the trailing clearpage of an include'd file. This allows the usage of the macros on the page header and footer of the last page of such files. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/currfile .
