The following information was provided by our fellow contributor:

Name of contribution: pstool
Version number: 1.3
Author's name: Will Robertson
Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/pstool
Summary description: Facilitate psfrag graphics in pdfLaTeX
License type: lppl

Announcement text: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A package like "pst-pdf" for processing PostScript graphics
with psfrag labels within pdfLaTeX documets. The difference
with this package is that every graphic is compiled individually,
drastically speeding up compilation time when only a single
figure needs re-processing.

Version 1.3 has some new features:
  - [bitmap] option to control compression of bitmap graphics,
  - Package options may now be set anywhere with \pstoolsetup{},
  - localised pstool options can be set per-graphic.
