%
% \section*{Introduction}
%
% This package provides a basic framework for copying and pasting content
% into a single document, or across different documents.
%
% \section{Basic Usage}
% \begin{synopsis}
% \item |\savecopypaste| \marg{basename}
% \item |\yank| \marg{key} \marg{content}
% \item |\paste| \marg{key}
% \item |\opencopypaste| \marg{basename}
% \end{synopsis}
%
%
% \begin{Description}
% \DescribeMacro{\savecopypaste}
% The first step is to create a copy-and-paste apparatus.
% \begin{synopsis}
% \item |\savecopypaste| \marg{basename}
% \end{synopsis}
% \end{Description}
%
% \begin{Description}
% \DescribeMacro{\yank}
% The command |\yank| typesets \meta{content} and identifies it as \meta{key}.\footnote
% {\texttt{copy} is already defined in {\TeX}.}
% \begin{synopsis}
% \item |\yank| \marg{key} \marg{content}
% \end{synopsis}
% \end{Description}
%
% \begin{Description}
% \DescribeMacro{\paste}
% And |\paste| just typesets the content identified by \meta{key}.
% \begin{synopsis}
% \item |\paste| \marg{key}
% \end{synopsis}
% \end{Description}
%
% \begin{Description}
% \DescribeMacro{\opencopypaste}
% Finally, |\opencopypaste| makes available content from |doc1.tex| to |doc2.tex|. In that way, you can paste into |doc2.tex| content from |doc1.tex|. Make sure to use the same \meta{basename} in both documents.
% \begin{synopsis}
% \item |\opencopypaste| \marg{basename}
% \end{synopsis}
% \end{Description}
%
% \section{Example}
%
% This is how to copy |bar| from |doc1.tex| and paste it into |doc2.tex|:\bigskip
%
% \noindent |doc1.tex|:
% \iffalse
%<*example>
% \fi
\begin{verbatim}
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{copypaste}
\savecopypaste{myfoo}
\begin{document}
\yank{foo}{bar}
\end{document}
\end{verbatim}
% \iffalse
%</example>
% \fi
%
% \noindent |doc2.tex|:
% \iffalse
%<*example>
% \fi
\begin{verbatim}
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{copypaste}
\opencopypaste{myfoo}
\begin{document}
\paste{foo}
\end{document}
\end{verbatim}
% \iffalse
%</example>
% \fi
%
% \noindent Now, running:
%
% |$ latex doc1|
%
% |$ latex doc2|
%
% \noindent outputs 2 documents with the same content, namely, |bar|.
%
% \StopEventually
%
% \section{Implementation}
% \begin{macrocode}
\newwrite\@copypaste
\newcommand\savecopypaste[1]{%
\immediate\openout\@copypaste=#1.cpy}
\newcommand\opencopypaste[1]{%
\input{#1.cpy}}
\newcommand\yank[2]{%
\defcopy{#1}{#2}%
\immediate\write\@copypaste{\noexpand\defcopy{#1}{\unexpanded{#2}}}%
#2}
\newcommand\defcopy[2]{%
\@namedef{@copypaste@#1}{#2}}
\newcommand\paste[1]{%
\@nameuse{@copypaste@#1}}
% \end{macrocode}
