Release v2.1 [2024-06-14]

Description

This package allows to store LaTeX code, including "verbatim", in <sequences> using the l3seq module of expl3. The <stored content> can be used as many times as desired in the document, additionally you can write to <external files> or show it in <verbatim style> .

Requirements

The package loads and depends on updated versions of:

• expl3
• latex-base

Installation

The package scontents is present in TeX Live and MiKTeX, use the package manager to install.

For manual installation, download scontents.zip and unzip it, then run:

$ luatex scontents.ins

Now the different files must be moved into the different directories in your installation TDS tree or in your TEXMFHOME:

  scontents.tex      -> TDS:tex/generic/scontents/scontents.tex
  scontents-code.tex -> TDS:tex/generic/scontents/scontents-code.tex
  scontents.sty      -> TDS:tex/latex/scontents/scontents.sty
  t-scontents.mkiv   -> TDS:tex/context/third/scontents/t-scontents.mkiv
  scontents.pdf      -> TDS:doc/latex/scontents/scontents.pdf
  scontents.dtx      -> TDS:source/latex/scontents/scontents.dtx
  scontents.ins      -> TDS:source/latex/scontents/scontents.ins

then run mktexlsr. To produce the documentation with source code run luatex scontents.ins and lualatex scontents.dtx three times.

Examples

The file <scontents.pdf> contains attached examples, which can be extracted from the PDF viewer or from the command line by running:

$ pdfdetach -saveall scontents.pdf

and then you can use the excellent arara tool to compile them.
