Readme for flat-tex-0.3.1

[back to package description]

flat-tex

The use case for this tool is: your paper has been accepted at a conference, and now you have to submit the latex sources for inclusion in the proceedings.

But - your sources contain some information that you don't want to reveal. E.g., it contains \todo{fix proof of previous theorem}.

flat-tex does the following:

  • flatten a multi-file latex document (recursively expanding all \input)
  • remove all \todo{..}, \reminder{..} and comments (% ...)

How \input{foo} is expanded:

  • if the file foo does exist, then it is processed
  • else foo.tex is processed
