Thanks Hans! Not as elegant as I had hoped, but it does what I want when I
use "\input zip::\env{name}::somezipcontent.tex" in myfile.tex ...
Now is there any way to define the output-filename from within myfile.tex?
This would be analogous to texexec's '--result' option, but from within the
texfile to change the output-name with the help of the newly
defined '\env{name}' - in the example to '\env{name}.pdf'.
Thanks, Joh
