+enable a LaTeX source file to generate external files as it runs through
+LaTeX.  However, there are two limitations of these environments: they refuse
+to overwrite existing files, and they can only be used in the preamble of a
+document.  The filecontents package removes these limitations, letting you
+overwrite existing files and letting you use @code{filecontents} /
+@code{filecontents*} anywhere.")
