\section{Introduction}
This package, initially written by Nigel Ward and Dan Jurafsky, has been
almost completely redesigned at ONERA/Centre de Toulouse
by Jean-Pierre Drucbert.
It creates a mini-table of contents
(a ``minitoc''\,\footnote{The \texttt{minitoc} package introduces
                its own jargon, explained in this note.
                It should not be too difficult, however, to learn and use.}%
) 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 \texttt{book} or \texttt{report}) or sections
(styles like \texttt{article}). 
Thus, this package should not be used with
document classes without sectioning commands (like \texttt{letter}).
When the document class defines a ``part'' sectionning level 
(i.e. classes like \texttt{book}, \texttt{report} and \texttt{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 {\tt\bs chapter} command 
but has a {\tt\bs section} command, you may use section
level tables of contents (``secttoc'') at the beginning of each section.
\textbf{Note}\virage: 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 \#34.

\noindent
\textbf{Note}\virage: the commands relative
to the part level are defined only if the document class defines \verb|\part|.
The commands relative
to the section level are defined only if the document class
does not define \verb|\chapter|.

\section{Usage}

To use the \texttt{minitoc} package, you must introduce a command
\begin{verbatim}
\usepackage{minitoc}
\end{verbatim}
in the preamble of your document.
The mini-table of contents will appear in the chapter,
after the \verb|\chapter| command, at the point of the \verb|\minitoc|
command. The {\tt\bs minitoc} command may occur
         \emph{anywhere} inside a chapter. Of course, it is better
         to put it at the beginning of the chapter, eventually
         after some introductory material. But you can also decide
         to put it at the end of the chapter. You should use the
         same conventions in all chapters.
If you want to add the mini-table of contents for a chapter,
you must use the sequence given in Table~\ref{mtc+minitoc}
\begin{table*}[ht]\tt
\changeskips
\caption{Commands for a \texttt{minitoc}}\label{mtc+minitoc}

\bs minilot & \emph{if you want one} \\
\ldots& \\
\end{tabular}}
\end{center}
\end{table*}
For each mini-table of contents, an auxiliary file will be
created with a name of the form \<document>\verb|.mtc|\<N>,
where \<N> is the absolute chapter number.
``Absolute'' means that this number is unique,
and increasing from the first chapter.
The suffix is \verb|.mlf|\<N> for mini-lists of figures and
is \verb|.mlt|\<N> for mini-lists of tables.
(If you are under MS-DOS or any operating system with short
extensions to filenames, see Section~\ref{MS-DOS} and
Chapter~\ref{FAQ}, item~\ref{.8+3}).

The section-level table of contents will appear in the section,
after the \verb|\section| command, at the point of the \verb|secttoc|
command. The {\tt\bs secttoc} command may occur
         \emph{anywhere} inside a section. Of course, it is better
         to put it at the beginning of the section, eventually
         after some introductory material. You should use the
         same conventions in all sections.
If you want to add the section-level table of contents for a section,
you must use the sequence given in Table~\ref{mtcsecttoc}
\begin{table*}[ht]\tt

\end{center}
\end{table*}
For each section-level table of contents, an auxiliary file will be
created with a name of the form \<document>\verb|.stc|\<N>,
where \<N> is the absolute section number.
The suffix is \verb|.slf|\<N> for section-level lists of figures and
is \verb|.slt|\<N> for section-level lists of tables.
(If you are under MS-DOS or any operating system with short
extensions to filenames, see Section~\ref{MS-DOS} and

\end{tabularx}}
\end{center}
\end{table*}
For each partial table of contents, an auxiliary file will be
created with a name of the form \<document>\verb|.ptc|\<N>,
where \<N> is the part number.
The suffix is \verb|.plf|\<N> for partial lists of figures and
is \verb|.plt|\<N> for partial lists of tables.
(If you are under MS-DOS or any operating system with short
extensions to filenames, see Section~\ref{MS-DOS} and
Chapter~\ref{FAQ}, item~\ref{.8+3}).

\noindent
\textbf{Note}\virage: the user is responsible of requiring or not requiring
a mini-toc (lof or lot) for some chapter. Asking a minilof for a
chapter without any figure will result in an empty and ugly mini
list of figures (i.e. the title and two horizontal rules).
He is also responsible of requiring or not requiring
a partial toc (lof or lot) for some part. Asking a partlof for a
part without any figure will result in an empty and ugly part
list of figures (i.e. the title alone on a page). Analogous remarks
apply to section-level tables of contents (secttoc, sectlof and sectlot).

By default, the mini-tables and partial tables of contents
contain only references to sections and
subsections. The \texttt{minitocdepth} and \texttt{parttocdepth}
counters, similar to \texttt{tocdepth},
allows the user to modify this behaviour. Mini or partial
lists of figures or tables are not affected by the value of
these counters.

\noindent
\textbf{NOTE}\Virage: if you are using \verb|\chapter*| and a
\begin{quote}
\verb|\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{...}|
\end{quote}
command to add something in the
table of contents, the numbering of minitoc files would be altered.
To avoid that problem, say
\begin{quote}
\verb|\addstarredpart{...}|\\
\verb|\addstarredchapter{...}|\\
\verb|\addstarredsection{...}|
\end{quote}
%You \emph{should not} use \verb|\minitoc| in a \verb|\chapter*|.
%Similar remarks apply to the part and section level.
These commands apply only for the level of a part-, mini- or
sect-toc; for lower levels, use
\begin{quote}
\verb|\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{...}|
\end{quote}
by example, to add a section-level entry in the toc and the
minitoc:
\begin{verbatim}
   \chapter*{Title of chapter}
   \addstarredchapter{Title of chapter}
   \minitoc
   \section*{First section}
   \addcontentsline{toc}{section}{First section}
   \section*{Second section}
   \addcontentsline{toc}{section}{Second section}
\end{verbatim}

There is sometimes a problem with minitocs (and siblings) when
you use \verb|\chapter*| (or \verb|\section*|): the minitocs
appear in the wrong chapter. You can add a \verb|\adjustmtc|
(or \verb|\adjuststc| or \verb|\adjustptc|) command at the end
of the starred chapter (or section or part) to increment the
corresponding counter. Do not use thinks like \verb|\stepcounter{mtc}|
(which should work), because the \texttt{mtcoff} package knows
what to do about \verb|\adjustmtc| (and others), but can do
nothing about \verb|\stepcounter|.

A more clever way to solve this problem is to use commands
like:
\begin{quote}
\verb|\mtcaddchapter[|\<title>\verb|]|
\end{quote}
which adds an entry in the table of contents (and adjusts the
counter, because it calls \verb|\adjustmtc|). The
table~\ref{t+mtcadd} summarizes these commands, that you put
\emph{after} \verb|\chapter*|, etc.
If the optional argument is omitted or empty ou blank, no entry will
be visible in the table of contents nor in the minitocs.
If the optional argument is something invisible
(like~\verb|~| or \verb|\quad|), lhe result will be strange
but logically correct.

\subsection{Fonts and Titles}

The mini and partial tables and lists are typeset
in a \texttt{verse}-like environment, and
can be split over pages.
%U2
The mini-table of contents
is typeset in the {\tt\bs mtcfont}
font, which is \verb|\small\rm| by default. Section entries are typeset
in the {\tt\bs mtcSfont} font, which is \verb|\small\bf| by default.
For subsections, subsubsections, paragraphs and subparagraphs, the
commands \verb|\mtcSSfont|, \verb|\mtcSSSfont|, \verb|\mtcPfont| and
\verb|\mtcSPfont| are available (by default, \verb|\small\rm|)
to enable the use of various fonts. Mini lists of figures and tables are
typeset in the fonts \verb|\mlffont| and \verb|\mltfont|, which are
\verb|\small\rm| by default.
Tables~\ref{t+mtc+f1} and~\ref{t+mtc+f2} summarize these
many commands\,\footnote{These tables
were contributed by Stefan Ulrich. Thanks to him.}.

By default, titles are on the left. The commands \verb|\dominitoc|,
\verb|\dominilof| and \verb|\dominilot| accept an optional argument
to change the default position of the
corresponding title: \texttt{[l]} for left (default), \texttt{[c]} for center,
\texttt{[r]} for right, or \texttt{[e]} (or {\tt[n]}) for empty (no title).
The change is global for all the document.

If you want to change the position of the title for only one minitoc
(or minilof or minilof), just use such an optional argument with the
command \verb|\minitoc| (or \verb|\minilof| or \verb|\minilot|).

By default, titles are on the left. The commands \verb|\doparttoc|,
\verb|\dopartlof| and \verb|\dopartlot| accept an optional argument
to change the default position of the

To summarize: %by Stefan Ulrich
       by default, all titles are on the left. However, each one of the
       following commands:
       \par\begin{tabular}{@{}l}
       \verb|\doparttoc|, \verb|\dopartlof|, \verb|\dopartlot|,\\
       \verb|\dominitoc|, \verb|\dominilof|, \verb|\dominilot|,\\
       \verb|\dosecttoc|, \verb|\dosectlof|, \verb|\dosectlot|,\\
       \verb|\parttoc|, \verb|\partlof|, \verb|\partlot|,\\
       \verb|\minitoc|, \verb|\minilof|, \verb|\minilot|,\\
       \verb|\secttoc|, \verb|\sectlof|, \verb|\sectlot|
       \end{tabular}\par\noindent
       accepts an optional argument to change the positioning of the
       title: \texttt{[l]} for left (default), \texttt{[c]} for center,
       \texttt{[r]} for right, \texttt{[e]} or {\tt[n]} for empty (no
       title).  The arguments for the \verb|\do...| commands change the
       positioning of all corresponding titles of the document.
       For the other commands, the options only change the
       formatting of the current heading.

With the commands \verb|\tightmtctrue| (or the \texttt{tight}
package option) and \verb|\tightmtcfalse| (or the \texttt{loose}
package option, which is the default), the minitocs (minilofs,
etc.) will have less (tight) or more (loose) space between
contents lines.

The mini-tables and lists, as partial and section-level tables and lists,
are using some space on the first pages on each chapter, part or section,
thus the page numbers are altered. After the first \LaTeX\ run, the
mini-tables and lists, partial tables and lists
and section-level tables and lists
will be empty; after the second run, they appear,
but because they modify the page numbering, page numbers
are wrong; after the third \LaTeX\ run, the mini, partial and section-level
tables and lists should be correct.

\subsection{Special Features}
\subsubsection{Horizontal Rules}
By default, most of minitocs and siblings have horizontal rules after their
titles and at their ends. The exception is the ``partoc'' in a book- or
report-like document (i.e. when \verb|\chapter| is defined). To activate
or desactivate these rules, the following commands are available:
\begin{center}\small
\ifBT
\begin{tabular}{llllccc}
\toprule
&&&&\multicolumn{3}{c}{defaults for}\\
&rules in&&no rules in&\tt book&\tt report&\tt article\\
\midrule

\textbf{N}&\textbf{Y}\\

\bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\else
\begin{tabular}{llllccc}
\thickline
&&&&\multicolumn{3}{c}{defaults for}\\
&rules in&&no rules in&\tt book&\tt report&\tt article\\
\hline
\verb|\ptcrule|&parttocs&\verb|\noptcrule|&parttocs&\textbf{N}&%

&\textbf{N-A}&\textbf{N-A}&\textbf{Y}\\
\thickline
\end{tabular}
\fi
\end{center}
\subsubsection{Page Numbers, Leaders}
By default, the page numbers are listed in each minitoc, minilof, etc.
Some authors want only the section titles (with the section numbers),
but not the page numbers. Hence the obvious declarations below are available:
\begin{quote}\tt%
\ifBT
\begin{tabular}{lllcl}
\toprule
\Strut\textbf{Type}&&{\vphantom{$P^2_3$}\hfill\bf Page numbers (Default)\hfill}&&%
{\hfill\bf No page numbers\hfill}\\
\midrule

\Strut\rm sectlot&&\bs sltpagenumbers&\qquad&\bs nosltpagenumbers\\
\Strut\rm partlot&&\bs pltpagenumbers&\qquad&\bs nopltpagenumbers\\
\bottomrule
\end{tabular}%
\else
\begin{tabular}{lllcl}
\thickline
\Strut\textbf{Type}&&{\vphantom{$P^2_3$}\hfill\bf Page numbers (Default)\hfill}&&%
{\hfill\bf No page numbers\hfill}\\
\hline
\Strut\rm minitoc&&\bs mtcpagenumbers&\qquad&\bs nomtcpagenumbers\\
\Strut\rm secttoc&&\bs stcpagenumbers&\qquad&\bs nostcpagenumbers\\
\Strut\rm parttoc&&\bs ptcpagenumbers&\qquad&\bs noptcpagenumbers\\
\Strut\rm minilof&&\bs mlfpagenumbers&\qquad&\bs nomlfpagenumbers\\
\Strut\rm sectlof&&\bs slfpagenumbers&\qquad&\bs noslfpagenumbers\\

\Strut\rm sectlot&&\bs sltpagenumbers&\qquad&\bs nosltpagenumbers\\
\Strut\rm partlot&&\bs pltpagenumbers&\qquad&\bs nopltpagenumbers\\
\thickline
\end{tabular}%
\fi
\end{quote}

In the minitocs and siblings, they are leaders of dots between
the section titles and the page numbers. The \texttt{undotted}
package option removes these dots. The \texttt{dotted} option
is the default.

\subsubsection{Features for \texttt{parttoc}-s}
\enlargethispage*{\baselineskip}
By default, a \texttt{parttoc} (or a \texttt{partlof} or a
\texttt{parlot}) is preceeded and followed by a
\verb|\cleardoublepage|, and has a page style of
\texttt{empty}. Since version~\#32, you can modify this
behaviour by redefining the following commands, whose meaning
is obvious:
\begin{quote}\tt%
\ifBT
\begin{tabular}{lllcl}
\toprule
\Strut\textbf{Type}&&{\vphantom{$P^2_3$}\bf Command \hfill}&&%
{\bf Default \hfill}\\

\Strut\rm partlot&&\bs thispagepartlotstyle&\qquad&\bs thispagestyle\{empty\}\\
\thickline
\end{tabular}%
\fi\end{quote}

\subsubsection{The ``Chapter 0'' Problem}
Some documents do not begin with chapter number one, but with chapter
number zero (or even a weirder number). To make the \texttt{minitoc}
package work with such documents, you must insert the command
\begin{quote}
\tt\bs firstchapteris\{\<N>\}
\end{quote}
before the \verb|\dominitoc| and analogous commands. \<N> is the number
of your first chapter. This command \emph{does not}
modify the numbering of chapters, you must use a
\verb|\addtocounter{chapter}{-1}| command to get a first chapter
numbered~0. The \verb|\firstpartis| and \verb|\firstsectionis|
commands are analogous for parts and sections with a non standard numbering.

Since\virage{} version \#17c, these commands are obsolete, as this
problem has been solved. Thus they just give a harmless warning.

\subsubsection[Special Entries]{Special Entries\,\footnote{\textbf{Warning:} these features are still experimental.}}
If{\Virage} you want to add entries in the Table of Contents for
objects like the Table of Contents itself, the List of
Figures, the List of Tables, the Bibliography or the Index,
you should use the \texttt{tocbibend} package from Peter~R.~Wilson
(this package is available from the CTAN archives).

But these entries are considered as chapters (or sections in
an article class document) when the \texttt{.toc} file is
scanned to prepare the minitocs (the \verb|\dominitoc| phase).

So you must add an \verb|\mtcaddchapter| command, \emph{without
argument}, after the commands \verb|\tableofcontents|,
\verb|\listoffigures| and \verb|\listoftables|.

For the bibliography, you should add a \verb|\adjustmtc| command
after the \verb|\bibliography| command.

For the index, it is a bit more complicated, you add the
following commands just after the \verb|\printindex| command:
\begin{quote}
\verb|\addcontentsline{lof}{xchapter}{}|\\
\verb|\addcontentsline{lot}{xchapter}{}|\\
\verb|\mtcaddchapter|
\end{quote}

Of course, in documents were the TOC, LOF, LOT, bibliography
and/or index are processed as starred sections, you must
modify these additions to use section level commands.

And proceed with care, tracking in the \texttt{.log} file the
insertion of \texttt{.mtcN} files (and siblings). You have
some examples in the \texttt{add.tex} file distributed with
\texttt{minitoc}.

\subsection{Usage with MS-DOS}\label{MS-DOS}
Under\Virage{} MS-DOS (and other PC oriented operating systems),
the filename extensions are limited to 3 characters.
The \texttt{minitoc} package determines dynamically the type of
extensions available and will use it.
%Thus, it is only necessary to edit very
%slightly the file \texttt{minitoc.sty}. You have just to uncomment
%the line where \verb|\SHORTEXT| is defined.
All other modifications will be done automatically.
The {\tt.mtc\<N>}
suffix will become {\tt.M\<N>}, where \<N> is the absolute chapter
number.
The suffixes \verb|.mlf|\<N> and \verb|.mlt|\<N> become
\verb|.F|\<N> and \verb|.T|\<N>.
The {\tt.ptc\<N>}
suffix will become {\tt.P\<N>}, where \<N> is the part
number.
The suffixes \verb|.plf|\<N> and \verb|.plt|\<N> become
\verb|.G|\<N> and \verb|.U|\<N>.
The {\tt.stc\<N>}
suffix will become {\tt.S\<N>}, where \<N> is the absolute section
number.
The suffixes \verb|.slf|\<N> and \verb|.slt|\<N> become
\verb|.H|\<N> and \verb|.V|\<N>.
Of course, this implies a limit of 99~chapters in a
document, but do you really need so many chapters (or sections in an
article)? The limit of 99~parts does not seem too serious for
most documents.
See also Chapter~\ref{FAQ}, item~\ref{.8+3}).

\section{The \texttt{mtcoff} package}\label{o+mtcoff}
When a document has been prepared with the \texttt{minitoc} package,
it contains many \texttt{minitoc} specific commands, most of them being
\verb|\dominitoc|,
\verb|\faketableofcontents|, and \verb|\minitoc| commands (and their
equivalents for lists of figures and tables).
If you want to typeset
this document without any mini-table, you have just to replace the
\texttt{minitoc} package by the \texttt{mtcoff} package, and all these
commands will be ignored. At least two \LaTeX\ runs will be necessary
to get a correct page numbering and correct cross references.
It also purges the \texttt{.aux}, \texttt{.toc},
\texttt{.lof}, and \texttt{.lot} files from minitoc specific
spurious commands.

\emph{The best way seems to make one run with the \texttt{mtcoff}
package replacing the \texttt{minitoc} package, then restore
the \texttt{minitoc} package and re-execute \LaTeX\ three times
(yes, it is time consuming\ldots).
Running with the \texttt{mtcoff} package ensures that auxiliary files
are cleared from ``spurious'' commands introduced by \texttt{minitoc}.}

%Compatible with \texttt{toch.sty}, but the \texttt{minitoc} package must come
%\emph{after} the \texttt{toch} package (is it a bug or a ``feature''?).
\item\label{.8+3} This package creates auxiliary files with extensions like {\tt.mtc\<N>}.
Some operating
systems allow only 3~letters extensions. What to do?\hfill\null\\
\emph{No modification is needed: all is automatic since
version \#28! If you insist to use 3~characters extensions,
even on operating systems allowing more, just use the package
option \texttt{shortext}. Then you will get first the
auto-configuration messages, then a message saying that you
will however use short extensions.}
\item
Do not cheat with the ``\texttt{chapter}'' counter, i.e.~do not
write horrible things like \verb|\setcounter{chapter}{6}|. The mechanism
would break. It is better to add {\tt\bs chapter} commands,
to create empty (but numbered in a legal way) chapters.
Since version~\#10, \texttt{minitoc.sty} works with appendices.
Version \#19 allows to begin with a chapter other that number~1.
%\item % obsolete
%(8)  minitoc.sty is restricted to document styles which define
%     chapters in the standard way, like `book' and `report'.
%     Do not ask me to make minitocs for sections in articles.
%     There are ``parttocs'' if the document style defines
%     the \part command.
%\item %obsolete
%(9)  Some users have failed to make minitoc to work. They got
%     a message like:
%       Undefined command ... \@inputcheck ...
%     or:
%       Undefined command ... \reset@font ...
%     The \reset@font command has been added to latex.tex
%     on 29 September 1991 and the \@inputcheck command 
%     on 18 March 1992 and this version of latex.tex has been
%     released on 25 March 1992. If you have this message, you
%     have an old version of latex.tex. Get a recent one from
%     the archives and regenerate a latex format via initex.
\item
Some demanding users want to have minilof, minilot and
minibbl. First, minibbl is an other problem, strongly
related to the \BibTeX's dealing with {\tt.aux} files. Look
at \texttt{chapterbib.sty}, \texttt{bibunits.sty},
\texttt{multibib.sty}, ans \texttt{bibtopic}.
Version~\#13 has implemented basic minilofs and minilots.
Minibbls are not the aim of this package.
\item
This package creates a lot of auxiliary files and some users
argue that it is too many. A deep redesign would be
necessary to avoid that. Using only one big auxiliary file
(or one for all minitocs, one for all minilofs, \ldots)
would make the reading of such file very slow, and it would
be read for each {\tt\bs miniXXX} macro!
\item
How to do minitocs (minilofs and minilots) at levels other
than chapter? Here also, some redesign is needed.
From version~\#15, there are parttocs, partlofs and
partlots for the part level in book-like and article-like documents,
secttocs, sectlofs and sectlots for the section level in article-like
documents. Note that you can not have minitocs features at chapter
and section level in the same document, because doing so would make
an unreadable monster. The user must choose the main style of
the document accordingly to the size of it (e.g. do not write an article
of more than 130~sections: this is a report, or even a book!).

\item Since version \#23, works with document classes resetting
     chapter (or section) number at each part.
\item Since version \#31, works with the \texttt{hyperref} package,
thanks to Heiko Oberdiek \texttt{(oberdiek@ruf.uni-freiburg.de)}.
If you add the loading of the \texttt{hyperref} package to a document yet using \texttt{minitoc},
you will get error message about spurious closing braces. Just let finish the \LaTeX\ run,
then re-\LaTeX\ the document. There will be no problem if you remove the loading of
\texttt{hyperref} and add it again: the problem occurs only when you are upgrading from
\texttt{minitoc}~\#30 to \texttt{minitoc}~\#31 (or higher) with a document already processed and adding
\texttt{hyperref} at the same time! It seems better to process the document with \texttt{minitoc}~\#31 (or higher)
without \texttt{hyperref}, then with \texttt{hyperref}, because some internal commands written
into the auxiliary files have been modified. If used, the
\texttt{hyperref} package must be loaded \emph{before}
\texttt{minitoc}.

\item If you are upgrading from version~\#30 or lower to
version~\#31 or higher, you should delete the \texttt{.aux},
\texttt{.toc}, \texttt{.lof}, \texttt{.lot} of your document,
else the first \LaTeX{} run with version~\#31 or higher will
produce a lot of errors (the next run should be ok).
