Description
===========

ctanify is intended for developers of LaTeX packages who want to
distribute their packages via the Comprehensive TeX Archive Network
(CTAN).  Given a list of filenames, ctanify creates a tarball (a
.tar.gz file) with the files laid out in CTAN's preferred structure.
The tarball additionally contains a ZIP (.zip) file with copies of all
files laid out in the standard TeX Directory Structure (TDS), which
facilitates inclusion of the package in the TeX Live distribution of
TeX.

ctanify has been tested primarily on Linux but with reports from users
that it also works on OS X and can work on Windows under Cygwin.
Volunteers willing to help port ctanify to other platforms are
especially welcome.
