ABSTRACT ======== The etoc package gives to the user complete control on how the entries of the table of contents should be constituted from the *name*, *number*, and *page number* of each sectioning unit. This goes via the definition of *line styles* for each sectioning level used in the document. The package provides its own custom line styles. Simpler ones are given as examples in the documentation. The simplest usage will be to take advantage of the layout facilities of packages dealing with list environments. Regarding the *global toc display*, etoc provides pre-defined styles based on a multi-column format, with, optionally, a ruled title or framed contents. The `\tableofcontents` command may be used arbitrarily many times and it has a variant `\localtableofcontents` which prints tables of contents 'local' to the current surrounding document unit. An extension of the `\label/\ref` syntax allows to reproduce (with another layout) a local table of contents defined somewhere else in the document. Via *depth tags*, one gets an even finer control for each table of contents of which sectioning units it should, or not, display. The formatting inherited (and possibly customized by other packages) from the document class will be used when in compatibility mode. The assignment of levels to the sectioning units can be changed at any time, and etoc can thus be used in a quite general manner to create custom ''lists of'', additionally to the tables of contents related to the document sectioning units. No auxiliary file is used additionally to the standard `.toc` file. INSTALLATION ============ The simplest is to download > and then run `unzip etoc.tds.zip -d ` where `` is a TDS-compliant repertory. Else, to extract the package (.sty) and driver (.tex) files from etoc.dtx: - if etoc.ins is present: etex etoc.ins - without etoc.ins: etex etoc.dtx It is also possible to run latex or pdflatex directly on etoc.dtx. To produce etoc.pdf one can run pdflatex (thrice) directly on etoc.dtx or on the file etoc.tex which was extracted from previous step. Options can be set in etoc.tex: - scrdoc class options (paper size, font size, ...) - with or without source code, - with dvipdfmx or with latex+dvips or pdflatex. Since release 1.08h pdflatex is the default in etoc.tex (prior it was latex+dvipdfmx as it produces smaller PDFs) in order to allow inclusion via the use of package `attachfile` of about 25 code samples as file attachment annotations. Installation: etoc.sty -> TDS:tex/latex/etoc/etoc.sty etoc.dtx -> TDS:source/latex/etoc/etoc.dtx etoc.pdf -> TDS:doc/latex/etoc/etoc.pdf etoc-DE.pdf -> TDS:doc/latex/etoc/etoc-DE.pdf README.md -> TDS:doc/latex/etoc/README.md The other files may be discarded.

RECENT CHANGES ============== v1.08n \[2018/02/23\] --------------------- Refactoring of core macros detecting `\numberline` and its variants. v1.08m \[2018/02/07\] --------------------- Fix to `1.08k`'s introduced incompatibility with KOMA-script and tocbasic's `\nonumberline`. v1.08l \[2017/10/23\] --------------------- Workaround an issue with `Emacs/AUCTeX` wrongly reporting about actually non-existent LaTeX errors, which was triggered by some strings written (indirectly) to log file by etoc under some circumstances. v1.08k \[2017/09/28\] --------------------- Adds `\etocsetlocaltop.toc`. See corresponding manual section for details. Adds `\etocsavedparttocline`, `\etocsavedchaptertocline`, `\etocsavedsectiontocline`, ... They can be used in the context of the technique explained in section "Another compatibility mode". Formerly, etoc redefined for the duration of the TOC the memoir macro `\chapternumberline` and its likes to have same meaning as `\numberline` (of course, not when executed in compatibility mode), for the sake of extraction of `\etocnumber`. New method detects presence of any `\numberline` macro without any change to originals; they can thus be used as is when applying the approach of "Another compatibility mode" section from manual. v1.08j \[2017/09/21\] --------------------- Since `1.08a-2015/03/13` `\etocname`, `\etocnumber`, `\etocpage` contain, if hyperref is present and configured for using hyperlinks in the TOC, the link destination in already expanded form. This means one can use them even if the style closes a group (for example from a `&` in a tabular), if `\etocglobaldefs` was issued; also one can save their meaning for delayed usage (with for example `\LetLtxMacro` as they are robust). But for some legacy reason `\etoclink`, contrarily to `\etocthelink`, was handled differently. Now, `\etoclink` also contains the link destination in already expanded form, and can thus be used even if the line style issues a `&`, as long as `\etocglobaldefs` is issued. Also, bugs dating back to the early days of the package, but surfacing only under relatively rare conditions such as usage of hyperref with its option "linktoc=page" got fixed. v1.08i \[2016/09/29\] --------------------- This fixes an issue dating back to `1.08e-2015/04/17`: under `\etocchecksemptiness` regime, some circumstances (such as adding to an already compiled document a `\localtableofcontents` before the main `\tableofcontents`) created an "`Undefined control sequence` `\Etoc@localtop`" error. Thanks to Denis Bitouzé for reporting the problem. On this occasion, `\etocdoesnotcheckemptiness` has been added to unset the flag. A rather more exotic issue was fixed: the emptiness check for local tocs could get confused if the `tocdepth` counter was varying in some specific ways from inside the `toc` file. After adding to a document a `\localtableofcontents`, two LaTeX passes are needed for etoc to get a chance to print the correct local contents. Formerly, etoc issued a Warning on the first pass; it now also induces LaTeX into announcing "There were undefined references", as this is nearer to the end of the log file and console output. v1.08h \[2016/09/25\] --------------------- New functioning of `\etocsetnexttocdepth`: the tocdepth counter is modified only at the time of the table of contents, not before. This fixes an issue which arose when `\etocsetnexttocdepth` was used multiple times with no intervening table of contents. Thanks to Denis Bitouzé for reporting the problem. The PDF documentation includes about 25 LaTeX code snippets also as file attachment annotations, additionally to their verbatim typesetting. The ordering of the documentation contents has been slightly re-organized. A previous documentation-only update on 2016/09/09 added a new section with the (approximate) translation into etoc lingua of the book class toc style, for easy customizability. The latest translation into German of the additions made to the documentation dates back to v1.08d \[2015/04/09\]. Thanks to Christine Römer!
