# `scrwfile` — Use LaTeX .aux file in place of `\newrite` files
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LaTeX package `scrwfile`
Copyright (c) 2010—2023 Markus Kohm
Release: 2023-04-01 v0.1.99
License: LPPL 1.3c (see [LICENSE.md](https://github.com/komascript/scrwfile/blob/main/LICENSE.md))
CTAN Location: https://ctan.org/pkg/scrwfile
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
## Summary
`scrwfile` is a LaTeX package, that provides a means of sending all LaTeX
`\newrite`, table of contents, and other miscellaneous output via the LaTeX
`.aux`-file. The mechanism subverts the mechanism of `\newrite`, and means there
will almost never be a “`No room for new \write`” message.
`scrwfile` is a [KOMA-Script](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/koma-script)
spin-off and was part of that bundle up to `scrwfile` version 0.1.12
resp. KOMA-Script version 3.38. It has been removed from KOMA-Script because
it is experimental and no longer maintained officially.
## Status
This is an experimental package. There is currently no official maintainer
of this package.
## Installation
We recommend to use the package manager of your TeX distribution to install
packages. However, if you need to install `scrwfile` manually, you
can either use a semi-manual installation or a completely manual installation.
### Semi-manual Installation
For a semi-manual installation you can first create a local clone
of the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/komascript/scrwfile.git
```
Then enter the directory created while cloning the repository:
```bash
cd scrwfile
```
Last, but not least use `l3build` to install it locally with manual and
sources:
```bash
l3build install --full
```
or without manual and sources:
```bash
l3build install
```
### Completely Manual Installation
To do a completely manual installation, download `scrwfile.dtx`.
Then extract it using:
```bash
tex scrwfile.dtx
```
To create the manual use:
```bash
pdflatex scrwfile.dtx
mkindex scrwfile
pdflatex scrwfile.dtx
pdflatex scrwfile.dtx
```
Now, you can either install it in the proper directory (see the
documentation of your TeX distribution) or copy `scrwfile.sty`
to your document directory.
