% \section{Writing Hebrew/English thesis with \LaTeXe}^^A
% \label{sec:iitthes}
%
%    The file \file{\filename}\footnote{The Hebrew/English thesis
%    class for \LaTeXe{} described in this section have version number
%    \fileversion\ and were last revised on \filedate.} can be useful
%    for writing a thesis or dissertation in both Hebrew and English
%    languages, at the Technion --- Israel Institute of Technology.
%    This package is an experimental meant to answer to the demands of
%    the Graduate School of the Technion, but can be easily adjusted
%    (I hope) for writing theses at other academic institutions at
%    Israel.
%
%    Original version of this style (called \pkg{iitthes.sty}) for
%    \LaTeX2.09 was written in April 1994 by Irina Abramovici from the
%    Taub Computer Center, Technion and was updated for \LaTeXe{} with
%    \babel{} support by Boris Lavva. The thesis class can be used for
%    English documents with a number of Hebrew parts, and for Hebrew
%    documents with a number of English parts. In addition, any other
%    languages supported by \babel\ can be used freely in thesis.

%
% \subsection{Common definitions}
%
%    We use standard \LaTeXe{} \pkg{report} class as the base of our
%    \pkg{iitthes} class. A thesis should be printed in A4 paper,
%    using $12pt$ fonts, one-sided.
%    \begin{macrocode}
%<*iitthes>
\ExecuteOptions{a4paper,12pt,oneside,onecolumn,final,openany}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    Declare some conditionals that will be used when processing the options.
%    All of them are prefixed with \texttt{iitthes@}:
%
%    \texttt{hebibm}, \texttt{nohebibm}: Should the IBM Type1 fonts be used 
%    rather than the default Hebrew fonts? Default: no. 
%    \begin{macrocode}
\newif\ifiitthes@hebibm   \iitthes@hebibmfalse
\newif\ifiitthes@eightbit \iitthes@eightbitfalse
\DeclareOption{hebibm}  {\iitthes@hebibmtrue \iitthes@eightbittrue}%
\DeclareOption{nohebibm}{\iitthes@hebibmfalse\iitthes@eightbitfalse}%
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    \texttt{stdtheo}, \texttt{nostdtheo}: Should the class define some 
%    standard (that is: what Tzafrir needed) theorem-like environments?
%    Default: yes. 
%    \begin{macrocode}
\newif\ifiitthes@stdtheo  \iitthes@stdtheotrue
\DeclareOption{stdtheo}  {\iitthes@stdtheotrue}%
\DeclareOption{nostdtheo}{\iitthes@stdtheofalse}%
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    \texttt{setspace}, \texttt{nosetspace}: Should the class set inter-line 
%    spacing to doublespace?
%    Default: yes. 
%    \begin{macrocode}
\newif\ifiitthes@setspace  \iitthes@setspacetrue
\DeclareOption{setspace}  {\iitthes@setspacetrue}%
\DeclareOption{nosetspace}{\iitthes@setspacefalse}%
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    \texttt{hebmain}, \texttt{nohebmain}: Should the thesis be Hebrew with
%    some English (hebmain) or English with some Hebrew (nohebmain).
%    Default: yes
%    \begin{macrocode}
\newif\ifiitthes@hebmain  \iitthes@hebmaintrue
\DeclareOption{hebmain}  {\iitthes@hebmaintrue}%
\DeclareOption{nohebmain}{\iitthes@hebmainfalse}%
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    \texttt{enccp862}, \texttt{enc8859-8}, \texttt{enccp1255},
%    \texttt{encsi960}: set input (Hebrew) encoding. Defualt: enforce no input
%    encoding, and use heblatex's default encoding (which should be 8859-8 or
%    cp1255)
%
%    Note: si960 (7bit Hebrew) is only here for the sake of completeness.
%    Please don't use it.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\DeclareOption{enccp862}{\providecommand{\class@inputenc}{cp862}}%
\DeclareOption{enc8859-8}{\providecommand{\class@inputenc}{8859-8}}%

\DeclareOption{encsi960}{\providecommand{\class@inputenc}{si960}}%
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    \texttt{draft}: Should some draft options be applied?
%    default: no
%    \begin{macrocode}
\DeclareOption{draft}{%
  \PassOptionsToPackage{all,light}{draftcopy}
  \PassOptionsToClass{draft}{report}
  \AtEndOfClass{\RequirePackage{draftcopy}}}
%    \end{macrocode}
%    We pass all options to the \pkg{report} class and load it.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\DeclareOption*{%
  \PassOptionsToClass{\CurrentOption}{report}}
\ProcessOptions
\LoadClass{report}
%    \end{macrocode}
%    Double spacing is required by the Graduate School, so we include
%    \pkg{setspace} package. This is supported \LaTeXe{} package and
%    can be found on CTAN.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\ifiitthes@setspace
  \RequirePackage{setspace}
  \AtBeginDocument{\doublespacing}
\fi
%    \end{macrocode}
%    Check if the any of the \texttt{enc} options was used. If so: load the
%    apprpriate input encoding:
%    \begin{macrocode}

\ifx\iitthes@inputenc\@undefined\else% 
  % Do the following if an input encoding option was given
  \RequirePackage[\iitthes@inputenc]{inputenc}%
\fi
%    \end{macrocode}
%    Set the output Hebrew encoding of heblatex to 8bit (HE8), if required:
%    \begin{macrocode}

\ifiitthes@eightbit
  \def\HeblatexEightBitFont{}
\fi
%    \end{macrocode}


%
%    unless we were asked otherwise (the option 'nostdtho' given):
%    add standard theorem environments
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\ifiitthes@stdtheo%
  \newtheorem{definition}{definitionname}[chapter]%
  \newtheorem{theorem}[definition]{\theoremname}%
  \newtheorem{lemma}[definition]{\lemmaname}%
  \newtheorem{claim}[definition]{\claimname}%

  % The definition of proof is borowed fom LyX, to have a proper QED.
  \newenvironment{proof}{%
    \textbf{\proofname:}%
  }{%
    \hfill\rule{2mm}{2mm}\par\vspace{2mm}%
  }
\fi%
%    \end{macrocode}


%    Thesis should be bilingual and use Hebrew and English by
%    default. If you want to add other languages, pass them as options
%    to class, for example:
%    \begin{quote}
%    |\documentclass[russian,spanish,greek]{iitthes}|
%    \end{quote}
%    Note, that hebrew is the last language in |\RequirePackage| line,
%    and will be used by default at the beginning of document, unless the 
%    \texttt{nohebmain} layout is in effect
%    \begin{macrocode}

%    To provide the automatic calculation of Gregorian and Hebrew
%    dates, we define 3 new counts: |\dd| for `day', |\mm| for `month',
%    and |\yy| for `year'. Their initial value will be |\today|'s day,
%    month and year. An user can provide his/her own date with changed
%    command |\date{|\emph{day}|}{|\emph{month}|}{|\emph{year}|}|.

%  \begin{macro}{\date}
%    The author should input the submition date. e.g:

%
%    Note that the date will only be printed in a "month-year" format, however
%    a relatively exact day-of-the-month is needed because the Hebrew month
%    will also be extracted from this date.

%       \item[3] for master of technology,

%    User-defined line to replace the default one: ``The generous

% \subsection{User-level commands and macros}
%
%    The following 3 macros: |\frontmatter|, |\mainmatter| and
%    |\backmatter| should be used to divide a thesis to 3 parts:
%    \begin{enumerate}\scrunch
%       \item Hebrew cover, title, acknowledgment, TOC, LOF, LOT when
%             the main language of the document will be Hebrew
%             \textbf{OR}
%             English cover, etc.\ when the main language of the
%             document will be English.\\ This part will be with hebrew
%             page numbering if in Hebrew and with roman page
%             numbering if in English.
%       \item The main part (in Hebrew or in English) will be with
%             arabic page numbering.
%       \item The opposite to the first part:\\
%             English cover, title, acknowledgment, TOC, LOF, LOT when
%             the main language of the document was Hebrew 
%             \textbf{OR} Hebrew
%             cover, etc.\ when the main language of the document was
%             English.\\ This part will be with roman page numbering
%             if in English and with hebrew page numbering if in
%             Hebrew.
%    \end{enumerate}
%
%  \begin{macro}{\frontmatter}
%    Should be used at the beginning of the first part
%    (for example, after the Hebrew |\makecover|).
%    \begin{macrocode}
\newcommand\frontmatter{%

%  \end{macro}
%
%  \begin{macro}{\mainmatter}
%    Should be used at the beginning of the second part
%    (for example, after the Hebrew \emph{abstract}).
%    \begin{macrocode}
\newcommand\mainmatter{%
  \if@openright\cleardoublepage\else\clearpage\fi%
  \pagenumbering{arabic}}
%    \end{macrocode}

%  \begin{macro}{\backmatter}

%    \begin{macrocode}
\let\backmatter\frontmatter
%    \end{macrocode}
%  \end{macro}
%
%  \begin{macro}{\makecover}
%    This command is similar to |\maketitle| and builds a standard

%    when in Hebrew mode, and in English when in English mode.
