Document Classes ⇒ Specifying different directories for sty and doc

[erwann]

Hi,

Let's say the *.ins and *.dtx files reside in

~/LaTeX/src/skeleton/

How would I modify them to send the sty and doc files respectively to

~/LaTeX/tex/skeleton/
~/LaTeX/doc/skeleton/

(I assume these would have to be created beforehand)

I tinkered with \BasedDirectory and \usedir but it didn't go anywhere.

I don't know a setting, but how about using a shell script that compiles and then moves the files?

OK, I'll take that as it probably does not exist.

I did not search for it, and I rarely use it myself. I install packages, and in rare cases when I just have to download .ins and .dtx myself and compile it, I just do it... I did not spend time or effort in adjusting how it works. But it's a good and relevant question!
