SHORT DESCRIPTION
=================

This package provides the environment |fullminipage|, which generates a
|minipage| spanning a new, complete page with page style |empty|.
The environment provides options to set margins around the |minipage| and
configure the background.

BUILDING
========

If you do not want to use any pre-build `fullminipage.sty' and `fullminipage.pdf'
files, you will have to choose one of the following two ways for building them.
Otherwise you can skip this section.

1) Building with make
---------------------

Running `make' will create the LaTeX package, the documentation and the test
file:
  $ make

2) Building manually
--------------------

a) Generation of package (.sty file):

Run `fullminipage.ins' through LaTeX:
  $ pdflatex -interaction=nonstopmode fullminipage.ins

b) Generation of documentation:

Run `fullminipage.dtx' through LaTeX:
  $ pdflatex -interaction=nonstopmode fullminipage.dtx

Then create the index and change history:
  $ makeindex -s gind.ist -o fullminipage.ind fullminipage.idx
  $ makeindex -s gglo.ist -o fullminipage.gls fullminipage.glo

Finally, run `fullminipage.dtx' three time through LaTeX:
  $ pdflatex -interaction=nonstopmode fullminipage.dtx
  $ pdflatex -interaction=nonstopmode fullminipage.dtx
  $ pdflatex -interaction=nonstopmode fullminipage.dtx

Optionally you can compile the test file:
  $ pdflatex -interaction=nonstopmode fullminipage_test.tex
  $ pdflatex -interaction=nonstopmode fullminipage_text.tex
  $ pdflatex -interaction=nonstopmode fullminipage_text.tex

INSTALLATION
============

1) Installing with make
-----------------------

To install the package into a TDS (= TeX directory structure; typically its base
directory is named `texmf' or something similar), run the following command:
  $ make DESTDIR=<your TDS> install

Note: `$(DESTDIR)' defaults to `$(HOME)/.texmf'.

2) Installing manually
----------------------

In principle, you will only habe to copy the file `fullminipage.sty' into a
directory, where LaTeX can find it.  If you copy it into a TDS (TeX directory
structure), you will most probably have to run the following command afterwards:
  $ mktexlsr <your TDS>
