README for the `nicefilelist' package \listfiles Alignment with Date and Version Columns © Uwe Lück 2012/10/30 (deceased June 2020, 2023-02-13 v0.9b patched by H.-Martin Münch, original package version 0.7a has been archived at https://web.archive.org/web/20221205210517/ https://mirror.mwt.me/ctan/install/macros/ latex/contrib/nicefilelist.tds.zip) While `longnamefilelist.sty' improves LaTeX's \listfiles with respect to long base file-names only, the present `nicefilelist.sty' can keep separate columns for (i) date (ii) version, and (iii) "caption" (don't write caption text in date column), their alignment not being disturbed by short file-name extensions such as `.fd'. This is achieved basing on the `monofill' package. v0.7 offers a package option `[wrap]' for automatic word wrapping within the caption column, using the `hardwrap' package, so file-names and captions can be quite long without disturbing the alignment. v0.9a offers a package option `[autolength]' for automatic sizing of the columns, using the `xstring' package. As opposed to the `dateiliste' package, this is about the plain text output in the `.log' file or, with `myfilist', as a stand- alone plain text file.

nicefilelist – Provide \listfiles alignment
The package extends longnamefilelist, keeping separate columns for date, version and “caption” (the caption now separately listed). Alignment is not disturbed by short file name extensions, such as “.fd”.
The package is not compatible with longnamefilelist: users need to re-read the documentation.
