Announcement text:
Updated version of verbatimcopy. The code has been rewritten by Ulrich Diez such that it can now handle spaces in filenames (use 'enquotefilenames' package option) and it can also handle special chars in filenames through a \verb-like interface. See the doc for more information. Please note that this version is NOT backwards compatible, though the old functionality is provided through the 'compatibility' package option. In compliance with the Debian guidelines, the source of the docs is now provided.
This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/verbatimcopy/ . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/pkg/verbatimcopy (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 .

verbatimcopy – Make copies of text documents from within LaTeX
This package provides \VerbatimCopy{in}{out} that will enable LaTeX to take a verbatim copy of one text file, and save it under another name.
The package provides a means to specify the output directory to be used, but does no checking and may therefore overwrite an important file if used injudiciously.
