DESCRIPTION

TeXmate formats chess games from very simple ascii input. The clean "1. e4 e5; 2. Nf3 Nc6; 3. Bb5 a6" will produce the same results as the sloppier "1  e4 e5; Nf3 Nc6 3.. Bb5 a6". The resulting format is fully customizable.

There are 4 levels of commentary: 1 is the main game, 2-3 are commentaries. Each has its fonts, punctuation marks, etc., and these are also customizable.

The package includes a tool for the creation of diagrams.

DOCUMENTATION

The user's manual is file texmatesample.pdf. It includes three samples at the end. texmate.pdf is the commented code.


INSTALLATION

Run TeX on texmate.ins. This will create texmate.sty, the package file, which should go in the "tex\latex\texmate" folder.

The dtx and ins to "\source\latex\texmate"

The pdf's and the tex to "\doc\latex\texmate"


It's a good idea to install the skak package as well, for the fonts. But the font files come here in case you want to install them manually.
