The separate files commit also creates a couple of Tex counters questioncountall and examnumber that can be displayed in the tex. In theory it could also create counts for each zone (so you could print "28 Multiple Choice and 6 Long answer) but I ran out of time to investigate how to do this best in Tex.
pdf generation and printing is not implemented in python - sorry - perhaps you'd like to add this. However I do include some notes and a few examples on how to do this on a Mac using very simple shell script or Makefile.
The email task now renames the pdf file after it has sent it (netid.pdf -> sent-netid.pdf). This ensures the email-task can be restarted and will skip students that have already been emailed.
