Doesn't seem to matter what # typesetting tool one uses, sane forms of automation only go so far, # at least with present technology. # # This script is intended to be a collection of tweaks. The theory is # that, while we can't avoid the need for tweaking, we can at least # write the silly things down in a form that a program might be able # to execute. Undoubtedly everythig in here will break, eventually, # at which point it will need to be updated, but since the alternative # is to do the final editing by hand every time, this approach seems # the lesser of two evils. while (<>) { # Fix a db2latex oops.
