vexillology - A package to indicate the usage, status, and design of flags

This package implements symbols used by vexillologists (people who study flags) to indicate certain aspects of flags, such as where they are used, who uses them, and what they look like. The package uses TikZ to draw the symbols, whose heights scale with the font size.

Installation

The package is suppled in dtx format with an accompanying ins file to install the package. Run latex vexillology.ins to extract the package; instructions for building the documentation are included in the ins file. Note that the flags included in the document are not distributed with either this package or the worldflags package, so your own build of the documentation likely will not match the one included with the package.

This package requires the tikz package.

Typesetting the documentation requires several other packages:

• booktabs
• caption
• geometry
• fontenc
• newpxtext
• newpxmath
• listings
• tikz
• xcolor
• worldflags (including some flags and extensions not distributed with the package)
