A. Purpose

The 'tkz-tab' package is built on top of PGF and its associated front-end, TikZ and is a (La)TeX-friendly drawing package. The aim is to provide some useful macros  to build  tables showing variations  of functions as they are used in France.
These macros may be used by only LaTeX TeX users. The documentation is in French.

B. Features
 -- works with utf8 and pdflatex
 -- provides 'help' option,
 -- allows to draw tables of variations with a "forbidden zone",
 -- allows to use TikZ.

C. Licence

You may freely use and distribute this package under the terms of  lppl and/or gpl.

tkz-doc.cls is a class (beta version) to make the documentation. You need also the
tkzexample.sty package (beta version) and KOMA-Script 2009/01/24 v3.02b to 
 compile the documentation.
          
E. Installation

If you need to install it by yourself, a TDS compliant zip archive is
provided (tkz-tab.zip).  Just download that file, and unpack it in
your TDS directory (~/texmf for Unix-like systems). If you only need to use
 'tkz-tab.sty' then you have to copy 'tkz-tab.sty' into '~/texmf/tex/latex'.
 If you want also to compile the documentation then you need to copy tkz-doc.cls and tkzexample.sty in the same folder and you need to use pdf(e)tex.

With MiKTeX, copy folder 'tkz-tab.sty' into 'C:\texmf\tex\latex', then
run 'MiKTeX Options'. In the 'File name database' section, click on
'Refresh now'.

F. The author of the 'tkz-tab.sty' package is Alain Matthes.
