- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
SQLTeX is a well documented preprocessor to enable the use of SQL statements 
in LaTeX . It is a perl script that reads an input file containing the LaTeX 
source with SQL commands, and writes a LaTeX file that can be processed with 
your LaTeX package.  The SQL commands will be replaced by their values. It's 
possible to select a single field for substitution substitution in your 
LaTeX document, or to be used as input in another SQL command.  When an SQL 
command returns multiple fields and or rows, the values can only be used for 
substitution in the document. 

This is v1.4 of SQLTeX. New in this version is the option to replace values 
in the database results using configurable replace files; e.g., if the 
database value contains a percent sign (`%'), SQLTeX automatically replaces 
it by an escaped percent sign (`\%').

This version only supports MySQL databases. It has been tested on Linux, but 
should work an all platforms where Perl is installed.
