Installation of the minitoc package (version #43 2005/09/16). This package contains a lot of files. The list of all files is given in minitoc.l. The files are sorted into ``classes'' below (a file can appear in more than one class). Each class specifies the function and the placement of its files. (0) The files minitoc.ins and minitoc.dtx are the basic source files of this package. The file fminitoc.dtx loads minitoc.dtx but selects the french documentation. The language selection is done by using \ifcase ... \or ... \fi constructs. (1) The files minitoc.sty, mtcoff.sty, and ALL *.mld and *.mlo files are the package itself. They must be all installed in a directory where LaTeX finds the .sty files. mtcmempatch.sty is a temporary fix for compatibility with the memoir class. (2) INSTALL is a file describing the installation of the package. You are reading it. minitoc.l contains the list of all files of the minitoc distribution. README is a file describing briefly the minitoc package, plus some useful infos. catalog contains basic infos about the minitoc package (abstract, date, author, version, licence). TODO lists some suggested developments of the package. Comments and suggestions are welcome. (3) minitoc-ex.tex, mini-art.tex, add.tex, add.bib are example files, to play with. (4) minitoc.bug, minitoc.sum are plain text documentation: list of problems (faq) and summary of commands. (5) minitoc.dtx, minitoc.ins, minitoc.bib, minitoc.ist, minitoc.lan are the source of the documentation in (non perfect) english. (6) fminitoc.dtx, fminitoc.ins fminitoc.bib, fminitoc.ist, frbib.sty, frplain1.bst, fminitoc.lan are the source (and tools) of the documentation in french. (7) minitoc.pdf, minitoc.ps are the documentation in (non perfect) english, in PDF and PostScript formats. (8) fminitoc.pdf, fminitoc.ps are the documentation in french, in PDF and PostScript formats. (9) pmk is a shell script to prepare the package and its documentation; it should be adapted to your needs. There are also four partial scripts (to be adapted): -- imk, which prepares the package from minitoc.ins and minitoc.dtx; -- emk, which prepares the english documentation from minitoc.dtx; -- fmk, which prepares the french documentation from fminitoc.dtx and minitoc.dtx; -- rmk, which sorts the files into classes (one directory for each class). These scripts are currently written in C-shell, but there are very simple, and should be easy to convert in another classic shell. The files of (1) must be installed in a directory where LaTeX finds .sty files. The files of (2), (3), (4), (5), (6) and (9) must be installed in a separate directory, but must not be omitted. The files of (7) and (8) must be installed as on-line documentation. Note that the PostScript files may be printed recto-verso on some printers. Note that minitoc.dtx and fminitoc.dtx are (not so trivial) examples of using minitoc (with hyperref).
