dktools – Tools and libraries by Dirk Krause

This bundle, which provides a number of tools and libraries by Dirk Krause, is no longer available on CTAN. It is now available only at its SourceForge project page.

The project does not contain any LaTeX packages, but source code to build executable programs. During the last years, many programs unrelated to LaTeX have been added. Therefore, the CTAN is no longer a suitable place to host the entire project.

The programs related to LaTeX are:

wxdkdraw: Minimalistic drawing program for use with LaTeX
wxd2lat: Convert wxdkdraw drawings to PDF+TeX, EPS+TeX, TeX (PGF)
bmpp: Convert PNG, JPEG, TIFF to PDF, PS, EPS
fig2lat: Convert *.fig to PS(+TeX), PDF(+TeX), PGF
dk-t2l: Convert plain text to LaTeX
plpdftex: Output driver for octpgfpl to produce PDF+TeX
