readme-tkz-euclide.txt V3.05 c 2020/03/08

tkz-euclide is a package (latex) which allows you to draw
  two-dimensional geometric figures, in other words to create figures of Euclidean geometry. It uses a Cartesian coordinate system orthogonal provided by the tkz-base package as well as tools to define the unique coordinates of points and to manipulate them. The idea is to allow you to follow step by step a construction that would be done by hand as naturally as possible.

Features
--------
 -- needs tkz-base !!, xfp  and numprint;
 -- requires and automatically loads  PGF/TikZ > 3; 
 -- compiles with utf8, pdflatex and lualatex;
  
Installation  
------------

You can experiment with the tkz-euclide package by placing all of the
distribution files in the directory containing your current tex file.

You can also placing all of the distribution files in the directory : 
/texmf/tex/latex/tkz.

 
How to use it
-------------

To use the package tkz-euclide, place the following lines in the preamble of
 your LaTeX document.

\usepackage{tkz-euclide} 

\usetkzobj{all} is no longer required with tkz-euclide but you can use it with other packages
 
\usepackage{tkz-euclide}  loads tkz-base and TikZ. 

If you use the xcolor package, load that package before tkz-euclide to avoid
 package conflicts.


Documentation
-------------

Documentation for tkz-euclide and tkz-base is available on CTAN. You have two cheatsheets about tkz-euclide in the archive.

Examples
--------

All  examples given in documentation will be stored on CTAN as standalone
  files, ready for compilation. You can use the main.tex file to load and compile  an example. 
The archive contains a litle document about Euclidean Geometry with four examples.
Other examples are on  my site : http://altermundus.fr (en français)  

Compatibility
-------------  

The new package tkz-euclide 3.02c is *not* fully compatible with the version 1.16 but the differences are minor.

History
-------
-- 3.05 correction of bugs, amelioration of the documentation.
-- 3.02 replacement french documentation by english documentation, correction of bugs.
-- 3.01 replacement  fp for xfp, addition of some macros, correction of bugs
-- 1.16 correction of bugs
-- 1.13 first version
