+ Sparkline.sty
+
+Sparklines are intense, simple, wordlike graphics (so named by Edward
+Tufte). In lieu of a more detailed introduction, Professor Tufte's site
+has an early release of a chapter on sparklines, see
+www.edwardtufte.com. A PHP implementation can be found at
+http://sparkline.sourceforge.net/.
+
+A sparkline can be added using the sparkline environment. Also, you can
+add sparkling rectangles for the median and special sparkling dots in
+red or blue. Only use sparklines with pdflatex, or with PostScript
+output; sparklines cannot appear in a dvi-file. The sparklines package
+uses pgf, and does not work with pictex. It but might work if
+pictexwd.sty is used, but that has not been tested.
+
+Read sparklines.pdf for more details including history.
