[texhax] Gobbling three-argument commands redux

[Karl Berry]

    How do I save/restore the original definition of \addcontentsline in 
    that scheme?

Don't know if it works, but:

\let\saveacl=\addcontentsline
\def\addcontentsline#1#2#3{}

\include{gpl.tex}

\let\addcontentsline=\saveacl


By the way, it seems fdl.tex was apparently created as a standalone
document (with \documentclass, etc.), rather than as a chapter.
(gpl.tex is a \chapter.)

Maybe the simplest way would be to make a pdf or whatever and then
include that.

Good luck,
Karl
