How can I install dirtytalk on Miktex?

Question

Tried using the Pacakge Manager, but the package doesn't show.

According to https://www.ctan.org/pkg/dirtytalk the package is not available in MikTeX. Maybe it's a license thing. Alternatively you could try the great csquotes. It seems to offer similar things (and maybe even more). If you really want dirtytalk, you can install the package manually with the files you get from CTAN, see How can I manually install a package on MiKTeX (Windows). — moewe, Sep 15 '16 at 17:07

On MiKTeX, after you've unzipped dirtytalk.zip in some directory, you'll have to compile the file dirtytalk.ins to produce dirtytalk.sty.

To make it useable, if you made an installation for all users, create a TeXMFlocal directory (not in MiKTeX roots) if not already done, and declare as rootwith MiKTeX Settings(Admin), Root tab, with the Add… button, like this:

Then copy dirtytalk.sty in TeXMFlocal\tex\latex\dirtytalk\, and dirtytalk.pdf in TeXMFlocal\latex\doc\dirtytalk\.

Finally, refresh the FNDB (under General tab).

If you made a per-user installation do the same with MiKTeX Settings.

It is available on TeXLive but not MikTeX. You will have to download the ZIP and install it manually. See this.
