clean TeX auxiliary files
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
# cleantex
# usage:
# cleantex [texfile1 texfile2 ... texfileN]
# where each file can be a directory (runs on every tex file in directory)
# running "cleantex" with no arguments is equivalent to "cleantex ."
# a single trailing dot or ".tex" is ignored (equivalent: a.tex a. a)
