Package xcomment supports to typeset only selected environments. For
example, one might want to print only a document's tables and figures,
without having to enclose all the text outside these environments within
comments. This package allows such selection.

xcomment – Allows selected environments to be included/excluded

The package defines an environment that only typesets specified environments within its scope.

So, for example, if you want nothing but the figure and table environments in your document, you can enclose the whole document with an xcomment environment that excludes everything but. This is a lot easier than excluding the chunks of text between the environments you want, or creating an entire document containing only those environments.

The package was previously part of the seminar bundle for typesetting presentations.
