Description

The LaTeX package kata provides commands to describe katas as in e.g. forms for Karate. The idea is to describe the form as a sequence of states each described with

1. a technique for the feet + direction
2. a technique for the hands + direction
3. a direction to move/rotate to next

Also the little pictograms can be customized so e.g. one can indicate repetitions with background coloring.

• put the files kata.ins and kata.dtx in the same directory;
• run latex kata.ins in that directory.
