+This is a style file for drawing cards from a Set Deck using TikZ in
+LaTeX.
+
+
+We use the convention
+\setcard{<Number>}{<Shading>}{<Color>}{<Shape>}{<Scaling>}, where
+Number = 1 (1 card), 2 (2 cards), 3 (3 cards)
+Shading = 1 (plain), 2 (striped), 3 (solid)
+Color = 1 (red), 2 (green), 3 (purple)
+Shape = 1 (diamond), 2 (oval), 3 (squiggle)
+
+
+
+So for example, to typeset a full-size Set card with two striped red
+squiggles, you would use the command \setcard{2}{2}{1}{3}{1}. To
+typeset a half-sized Set card with three plain green ovals, you could
+use either the command \setcard{3}{1}{2}{2}{0.5} or
+\smallsetcard{3}{1}{2}{2}{0.5}. The only difference between the two
+commands is the thickness of the lines on the cards.
+
+The command \smallsetcard is designed to be used when displaying
+anything smaller than a half-sized card.

+\maketitle
+
+This document describes a package for typesetting Set cards using TikZ in LaTeX. We use the conventions:
+
+\begin{center}
+\begin{tabular}{| c | c | c | c | c |}
+\hline
+Coordinate & Number & Shading & Color & Shape \\
+\hline
+1 & 1 & plain & red & diamond \\
+2 & 2 & striped & green & oval \\
+3 & 3 & solid & purple & squiggle \\
+\hline
+\end{tabular}
+\end{center}
+
+To typeset a basic Set card, we use the commands \verb|\setcard| or \verb|\smallsetcard|, with arguments
+
+\verb|\setcard{<Number>}{<Shading>}{<Color>}{<Shape>}{<Scaling>} |.
+
+\vspace{10pt}
+
+So to typeset, for example, the full-sized card with two striped purple diamonds, we use the command \verb|\setcard{2}{2}{3}{1}{1}|, which produces:
+\vspace{10pt}
+\begin{center}
+\setcard{2}{2}{3}{1}{1}
+\end{center}
+
+\vspace{10pt}
+
+For many purposes, this will be too large. To typeset a more reasonably sized card (let's say, this time, we typeset three solid red squiggles) we might prefer to use \verb|\setcard{3}{3}{1}{3}{0.5}| or \verb|\smallsetcard{3}{3}{1}{3}{0.5}|, which produce (respectively):
+
+\vspace{10pt}
+\begin{center}
+\setcard{3}{3}{1}{3}{0.5}$\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;$\smallsetcard{3}{3}{1}{3}{0.5}
+\end{center}
+
+Here is a preview of all cards (produced with \verb|\smallsetcard|) produced by the \verb|setdeck.sty| package:
+
+\vspace{10pt}
+
+\begin{center}
+\foreach \shading in {1,2,3}{
+\foreach \shape in {1,2,3} {
+\smallsetcard{1}{\shading}{1}{\shape}{0.25}\hspace{3pt}\smallsetcard{2}{\shading}{1}{\shape}{0.25}\hspace{3pt}\smallsetcard{3}{\shading}{1}{\shape}{0.25}\hspace{10pt}\smallsetcard{1}{\shading}{2}{\shape}{0.25}\hspace{3pt}\smallsetcard{2}{\shading}{2}{\shape}{0.25}\hspace{3pt}\smallsetcard{3}{\shading}{2}{\shape}{0.25}\hspace{10pt}\smallsetcard{1}{\shading}{3}{\shape}{0.25}\hspace{3pt}\smallsetcard{2}{\shading}{3}{\shape}{0.25}\hspace{3pt}\smallsetcard{3}{\shading}{3}{\shape}{0.25}
