What does the notation usepackage[table,xcdraw]{xcolor} mean? Which package arguments into which?












3















I saw an argument in a file that displayed:



usepackage[table,xcdraw]{xcolor}


I am a bit confused what is getting parsed into which. It seems that the material in are usually options for xcolor. But in this case they are packages. What does this mean exactly?






tables color

          That's correct.




          But in this case they are packages.





          • I'm not aware of LaTeX packages called table or xcdraw.



          • The option table instructs LaTeX to load the colortbl package in a way that maximizes its compatibility with the xcolor package. Aside: It's a mistake to load the xcolor and colortbl packages independently.



            For more information, see Table 1 in the user guide of the xcolor package.



          • Quoting from p. 23 of the package's user guide: If the option xcdraw is set, PostScript commands will be used to draw frames and color boxes if the dvips driver is set, while PDF code will be used if the document is compiled with pdftex or dvipdfm. The opposite of xcdraw is noxcdraw; it's the default. If noxcdraw is in effect, driver-independent code is used to draw frames and color boxes.

            It seems that the material in are usually options for xcolor.




            That's correct.




            But in this case they are packages.





            • I'm not aware of LaTeX packages called table or xcdraw.



            • The option table instructs LaTeX to load the colortbl package in a way that maximizes its compatibility with the xcolor package. Aside: It's a mistake to load the xcolor and colortbl packages independently.



              For more information, see Table 1 in the user guide of the xcolor package.



            • Quoting from p. 23 of the package's user guide: If the option xcdraw is set, PostScript commands will be used to draw frames and color boxes if the dvips driver is set, while PDF code will be used if the document is compiled with pdftex or dvipdfm. The opposite of xcdraw is noxcdraw; it's the default. If noxcdraw is in effect, driver-independent code is used to draw frames and color boxes.

                    8 0 I'd like to make a disclaimer that I remember very little about this book or when I read it (I think I read it sometime in the late 90's or early 2000's), so it'll probably be difficult to figure out what it is, but it's bothered me on occasion for a few years. I want to say that it's from the 90's, but it could be later or much earlier than that. I really only remember bits and pieces of it, primarily the beginning. It starts out in the woods, where someone is running away from/stumbles upon a cult ritual. The cult members are wearing red cloaks, and I think that they catch the person and kill them. The main part of the book starts with a kid moving in to his uncle's(?) house. Aside from this I really can't remember much, but I think at one point the kid navigates a maze...
