NAME

       texdirflatten - Collects all components of a (La)TeX file in a single
       output directory -- i.e., flattens its hierarchy.

SYNOPSIS

       texdirflatten -f input.tex [-o outputdir]

DESCRIPTION

       It parses the source file, following its included children (La)TeX
       files recursively, to collect together its components, such as graphics
       and BiBTeX bibliography files in different directories.

OPTIONS

       -f input.tex
           Specifies input (La)TeX file.

       -o outputdir
           Directory to collect all files. texdirflatten will copy each source
           file, graphics and bibliography file to this directory. It will be
           created if it is unexistent. If unspecified, it defaults to
           "flat/".

EXAMPLES

       The following example scans "manuscript.tex" in the current directory
       and gathers it and all its components in the "submit_01/" directory:

        $ texdirflatten -f manuscript.tex -o submit_01
