I wanted a tool that was easy to use, with a lean syntax, native to LaTeX, and supporting directly PDF output format. + +So I based everything with the very impressive (if somewhat verbose at times) TikZ package. + +-------------- + +## Requirements +* Tikz/PGF graphics library, version 3 +* xstrings not older than 2009/03/13 + +## Installation +The stable version is available on ctan and is included within the major latex distributions(Texlive, Miktex). If you want to test the latest version, have a look at http://circuitikz.github.io/circuitikz/. There you can find the latest git-version as a single file, just copy it to your project or to your local tex tree. + +## Usage +### Stable version +Just place +```latex + \usepackage[siunitx, RPvoltages]{circuitikz} +``` +or other opions, for ConTeXt, +```latex + \usemodule[circuitikz] +``` +in the preamble and compile away, both with PS and PDF target output. + +### Development version + +If you want to use the git version, just append a git to the package name: +```latex + \usepackage[siunitx, RPvoltages]{circuitikzgit} +``` +or, for ConTeXt, +```latex + \usemodule[circuitikzgit] +``` + +### Older versions (v0.9.1 onwards) + +If you want to use older versions of `circuitikz` in LaTeX, just append the version number to the package name, as in `circuitikz-$version`: +```latex + \usepackage{circuitikz-0.8.3} +``` +The available versions are 0.8.3, 0.7, 0.6 and 0.4. + +In ConTeXt, only the 0.8.3 version is available for the time being; you can use it with +```latex + \usemodule[circuitikz-0.8.3] +``` + +Be aware that options can (and do) change between versions, so you have to check them manually. + +## More Information +More Information can be found in the manual and (maybe) at the wiki of the project located at https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz/wiki. + +## Contact the authors +* git: https://github.com/circuitikz/circuitikz +* Massimo Redaelli (m.redaelli@gmail.com) +* Stefan Lindner (stefan.lindner@fau.de) +* Stefan Erhardt (stefan.erhardt@fau.de) +* Romano Giannetti (romano.giannetti@gmail.com) + +------------- +Copyright 2007-18 by Massimo Redaelli + +This file may be distributed and/or modified + +1. under the LaTeX Project Public License and/or +2. under the GNU Public License. -- cgit v1.2.3
