Here *hidden* or *covered* means the unintentionally overwritten `\hline`s and `\vline`s in a tabular. They are surely drawn but other things such as a row background color painted after hide them unintentionally. See the example in `dvisirule.pdf`. This package provides `dvisirule.sty` and `dvisirule` command. The command is a `sh` script, and it internally uses `dvisirule-bin`, `dvisirule-pgnum.awk`, `dvisirule-expg.mk`, and `dvisirule-marker.awk` files. ## Compile & Install ``` $ cd $this_dir/src $ configure -q $ cd .. $ make -s Dir=/tmp ``` Then you will get these files. ``` /tmp/dvisirule /tmp/dvisirule-bin /tmp/dvisirule-expg.mk /tmp/dvisirule-marker.awk /tmp/dvisirule-pgnum.awk /tmp/dvisirule.sty ``` Now you can install them by ``` $ make InstallBase=/tmp/texmf-dist ``` Here `${InstallBase}` is a make-variable which is referred by other make-variables. ``` InstallBin ?= ${InstallBase}/bin InstallLib ?= ${InstallBase}/lib InstallSty ?= ${InstallBase}/lib/texinputs ``` and the files will be installed to these dirs. ``` ${InstallBin}/dvisirule ${InstallLib}/dvisirule-bin ${InstallLib}/dvisirule-expg.mk ${InstallLib}/dvisirule-marker.awk ${InstallLib}/dvisirule-pgnum.awk ${InstallSty}/dvisirule.sty ``` Please note that these installed dirs have to be recognized by `Kpathsea` since the main `sh` script `dvisirule` searches these sub-files by `kpsewhich(1)`. ## Usage `sitabular` environment is a wrapper of `tabular`, and all the syntax is kept. You can use it by simply replacing `tabular` by `sitabular`. `a.tex` > `\usepackage{dvisirule}` > `\begin{sitabular} ... \end{sitabular}` and then ``` $ latex a.tex $ cp -p a.dvi a.dvi.save $ dvisirule a.dvi a-si.dvi $ mv a-si.dvi a.dvi ``` For more details, refer to `dvisirule.pdf` and other source files.
