Shell scripts interfacing to pdfpages

The package makes available the pdfjam shell script that provides a simple interface to much of the functionality of the excellent pdfpages package (by Andreas Matthias) for LaTeX. The pdfjam script takes one or more PDF (and/or JPG/PNG) files as input, and produces one or more PDF files as output. It is useful for joining files together, selecting pages, reducing several source pages onto one output page, etc., etc. The package contains no PDF documentation, but a comprehensive --help output instead.
