Summary description: Bundle all the files needed to build a LaTeX document
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
bundledoc is a post-processor for the snapshot package that
bundles together all the classes, packages, and files
needed to build a given LaTeX document. It reads the .dep
file that snapshot produces, finds each of the files
mentioned therein, and archives them into a single .tar.gz
(or .zip, or whatever) file, suitable for moving across
systems, transmitting to a colleague, etc.
As an added bonus, this distribution includes a small
script called arlatex. arlatex is a LaTeX-specific
archiving program that combines a bunch of files into a
single .tex file. When the .tex file is run through latex,
all of the original files are recreated and the LaTeX
document is built. bundledoc can be easily configured to
use arlatex as its archiver in place of tar, zip, etc.

bundledoc – Bundle together all the files needed to build a LaTeX document
The bundledoc package is a post-processor for the snapshot package that bundles together all the classes, packages and files needed to build a given LaTeX document. It reads the .dep file that snapshot produces, finds each of the files mentioned therein, and archives them into a single .tar.gz (or .zip, or whatever) file, suitable for moving across systems, transmitting to a colleague, etc.
A script, arlatex, provides an alternative “archiving” mechanism, creating a single LaTeX file that contains all of the ancillary files of a LaTeX document, together with the document itself, using the filecontents* environment.
