Nice feature to distribute a file together with its documentation, but
how
can i extract the attached file. AR (Linux version) seems not to have a
function for this. Is there an utillity program?
In Acrobat (not Reader) it's in File:Properties:Embedded Objects.
(That is, in german it reads: Datei:Dokumenteigenschaften:Eingebettete
Datenobjekte)
I can't find it in Reader (5.05 on MacOS X).
Linux AR has this menu entry but it doesn't work.
However, i found pdftosrc by Han The Thanh that seems to be part
of the pdftex distribution. The problem is that one has to know the
number of the pdf-object that contains the data stream.
maybe \setupattachments[symbol=objectnumber] could be implemented?!
I added \PDFattachmentnumber

\definesymbol
   [ObjectNumber]
   [object number \PDFattachmentnumber]

i'll send you a new spec-fdf with its definition in it
