    ## Remove TrackChanges

    If you have track change commands from the `TrackChanges` package (not the `changes` package), the commands can be removed by:

    ```
    python ../acceptchanges.py -c -n --infile=0-main.tex --outfile=0-main-no-track.tex
    ```

    - Note that `acceptchanges.py` works only with `python v2.7`.
    - The `acceptchanges.py` can be found under `TrackChanges` folder or it comes with the latex package.
    - `acceptchanges.py` does not automatically deal with `\input{}` or `\include{}` files. So I have to process with `acceptchanges.py` all associated files individually.
    - For the command above to work, copy entire latex folder under `/trackchanges-0.7.0/PythonPackage/` folder.

    ## Remove Changes

    For latex `changes` package was used for track change, use `pyMergeChanges.py`.

    ```
    python ../pyMargeChanges.py -a input.tex output.tex # python 3
    ```

    ## Remove comments and organize files for submission

    Under the `base` environment of `anaconda`, I installed `arxiv_latex_cleaner` (https://github.com/google-research/arxiv-latex-cleaner).

    ```
    arxiv_latex_cleaner Hydrogen_FeS_paper/ --im_size 500

    - This will create organized package in a new folder, `Hydrogen_FeS_paper_arXiv`.
    - `arxiv_latex_cleaner` seems to know how to deal with `\include{}` and `\input{}`. It also deals well with `bibunits`.
