The keyvaltable Package
=======================
Copyright (C) 2016-2020 Richard Grewe
Released under the [LaTeX Project Public License](http://www.latex-project.org/lppl/) version 1.3c or later
## Purpose
The main goal of the `keyvaltable` package is to offer means for
typesetting tables easily and yet still looking rather nicely in a way
that separates content from presentation and with re-usable layout for
tables of the same type. For this purpose, the package provides the
environment `KeyValTable`, which allows one to typeset tables that have
a previously defined column layout and whose rows can be produced in a
key-value fashion.
## Availability
The `keyvaltable` package is on [CTAN](http://www.ctan.org/pkg/keyvaltable),
where you can also find the [documentation](http://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/keyvaltable/keyvaltable.pdf),
as well as on [github](https://github.com/Ri-Ga/keyvaltable).
Since March 2016, `keyvaltable` is part of TeX Live (package `texlive-latex-extra`) and
is included in [MiKTeX](http://miktex.org/packages/keyvaltable).
## Manual Installation
The `keyvaltable` package comes with (at least) the following files
* keyvaltable.ins
* keyvaltable.dtx
* README.md
and possibly also with
* Makefile
* keyvaltable.pdf (generated from keyvaltable.dtx)
* keyvaltable.sty (generated from keyvaltable.dtx)
To install the `keyvaltable` package, you additionally need
