This package, initially written by Nigel Ward and Dan Jurafsky, has been
almost completely redesigned at CERT/ONERA by Jean-Pierre Drucbert.
It creates a mini-table of contents
(a ``minitoc'' 1.1) at the beginning of each chapter of the document.
It is also possible to have a mini-list of
figures (a ``minilof'') and a mini-list of tables (a ``minilot'').
The document class should of course define chapters
(styles like book or report) or sections
(styles like article).
Thus, this package should not be used with
document classes without sectioning commands (like letter).
When the document class defines a ``part'' sectionning level
(i.e. classes like book, report and article), you can
create a ``partial'' table of contents
(a ``parttoc'') at the beginning of each part of the document.
It is also possible to have a partial list of figures (a ``partlof'')
and a partial list of tables (a ``partlot'').
When the document class has no \chapter command
but has a \section command, you may use section
level tables of contents (``secttoc'') at the beginning of each section.
Note
]
: you cannot
use chapter level and section level table of contents in the same document.
This restriction is intented to avoid documents full of local
tables of contents, list of figures and tables at every sectionning level.
The current version of this package is #24.
Note
]
: the commands relative
to the part level are defined only if the document class defines \part.
The commands relative
to the section level are defined only if the document class
does not define \chapter.
