de-macro is a Python script that helps authors addicted to
using a large number of private LaTeX macros (I even
use \newcommand{\n}{n} a lot).
A technical editor or a cooperating author may balk at
such a manuscript. Now, you can just run de-macro on it!

de-macro – Expand private macros in a document
De-macro is a Python script that helps authors who like to use private LaTeX macros (for example, as abbreviations). A technical editor or a cooperating author may balk at such a manuscript; you can avoid manuscript rejection misery by running de-macro on it.
De-macro will expand macros defined in \(re)newcommand or \(re)newenvironment commands, within the document, or in the document’s “private” package file.
