Tool to prepare directory for arXiv

• makes a new folder
• moves all .cls files
• expands filename.tex into it, including the bibliography, removing comments
• moves graphics files into the folder (probably doesn't work if they're not supposed to be in the same folder as filename.tex)
• assumes filename.bbl is stored in tmp folder relative to the filename.tex
• moves lipics like things to the folder too.

LIPIcs

Does everything above, but doesn't expand the bibliography into the file (since LIPIcs requires a bib file). Instead it makes a new refs.bib from the existing aux file. So make sure final paper uses refs.bib and not ref.bib or biblio.bib or any myproject.bib.

Usage

filename.tex should already be compiled, such that filename.bbl exists

./arxiv.sh [filename] [destination]

• filename default is main (to find main.tex)
• destination default is arxiv (to place in folder called arxiv in the current directory)
