Remove (stale) memo and extern files

Synopsis

memoize-clean.pl [Options] [document1.mmz ...]

memoize-clean.py [Options] [document1.mmz ...]

Description

memoize-clean is a script accompanying Memoize, a TeX package which allows the author to reuse the results of compilation-intensive code such as TikZ pictures.

By default, this script removes stale memo and extern files. A stale memo or extern is an extern produced during a compilation of a previous version of the document which was neither used nor produced during the last compilation of the document. Typically, stale files arise when we change the memoized code (or its context).

memoize-clean.pl removes all memo and extern files with prefixes mentioned in the listed .mmz files and by options --prefix which are not explicitly mentioned in the .mmz files.

Before deleting anything, memoize-clean.pl lists all the files it would delete and asks for confirmation.

Options

-p,  --prefix

Add a memo/extern prefix for cleaning. This option may be given multiple times.

-a,  --all

Remove all memos and externs, rather than only the stale ones.

-y,  --yes

Do not ask for confirmation.

-q,  --quiet

Don’t describe what’s happening.

-h,  --help

Show help.

-V,  --version

Show the Memoize version number and exit.
