ABOUT

The etoolbox package is a toolbox of programming facilities geared
primarily towards LaTeX class and package authors. It provides LaTeX
frontends to some of the new primitives provided by e-TeX as well as
some generic tools which are not related to e-TeX but match the
profile of this package. The package is work in progress. Note that
previous versions of this package were released under the name
elatex.

SEMI-AUTOMATIC INSTALLATION

1. Download the file

   http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/install/macros/latex/contrib/etoolbox.tds.zip

2. Unpack the archive in the root directory of the local TeX
   installation tree, for example

   or
	/usr/share/texmf-local/
   or
	C:\Local TeX Files\

3. Update the file hash tables (also known as the file name
   database).
   
   On teTeX and TeX Live systems, run texhash as root ('sudo
   texhash'). On MiKTeX, run 'initexmf --update-fndb' in a command
   window or use the 'Refresh FNDB' button of the MiKTeX Options
   window.

MANUAL INSTALLATION

1. Copy the files 'etoolbox.sty' and 'etoolbox.def' to

	<TEXMFLOCAL>/tex/latex/etoolbox/

   where <TEXMFLOCAL> denotes the root of the local TeX installation
   tree, for example

	/usr/local/share/texmf/
   or
	/usr/share/texmf-local/
   or
	C:\Local TeX Files\

2. The file 'etoolbox.pdf' goes to

	<TEXMFLOCAL>/doc/latex/etoolbox/

3. Update the file hash tables (also known as the file name
   database).

   On teTeX and TeX Live systems, run texhash as root ('sudo
   texhash'). On MiKTeX, run 'initexmf --update-fndb' in a command
