-Sectioning commands provide the means to structure your text into units:
+Structure your text into divisions: parts, chapters, sections, etc. All
+sectioning commands have the same form, one of:
+
+ SECTIONING-COMMAND{TITLE}
+ SECTIONING-COMMAND*{TITLE}
+ SECTIONING-COMMAND[TOC-TITLE]{TITLE}
+
+For instance, declare the start of a subsection as with
+'\subsection{Motivation}'.
+
+ The table has each SECTIONING-COMMAND in LaTeX. All are available in
+all of LaTeX's standard document classes 'book', 'report',
+and 'article', except that '\chapter' is not available in 'article'.
+
+Sectioning unit Command Level
+--------------------------------------------------------------------
+Part '\part' -1 ('book', 'report'), 0
+ ('article')
+Chapter '\chapter' 0
+Section '\section' 1
+Subsection '\subsection' 2
+Subsubsection '\subsubsection' 3
+Paragraph '\paragraph' 4
+Subparagraph '\subparagraph' 5
+
+ All these commands have a '*'-form that prints TITLE as usual but is
+not numbered and does not make an entry in the table of contents. An
+example of using this is for an appendix in an 'article' . The input
+'\appendix\section{Appendix}' gives the output 'A Appendix' (*note
+\appendix::). You can lose the numbering 'A' by instead entering
+'\section*{Appendix}' (articles often omit a table of contents and have
+simple page headers so the other differences from the '\section' command
+may not matter).
+
+ The section title TITLE provides the heading in the main text, but it
+may also appear in the table of contents and in the running head or foot
+(*note Page styles::). You may not want the same text in these places
+as in the main text. All of these commands have an optional argument
+TOC-TITLE for these other places.
+
+ The level number in the table above determines which sectional units
+are numbered, and which appear in the table of contents. If the
+sectioning command's LEVEL is less than or equal to the value of the
+counter 'secnumdepth' then the titles for this sectioning command will
+be numbered (*note Sectioning/secnumdepth::). And, if LEVEL is less
+than or equal to the value of the counter 'tocdepth' then the table of
+contents will have an entry for this sectioning unit (*note
+Sectioning/tocdepth::).
+
+ LaTeX expects that before you have a '\subsection' you will have a
+'\section' and, in a book, that before a '\section' you will have a
+'\chapter'. Otherwise you can get a something like a subsection
+numbered '3.0.1'.
+
+ Two counters relate to the appearance of sectioning commands.
+
+'secnumdepth'
+ Controls which sectioning commands are numbered. Suppress
+ numbering of sectioning at any depth greater than LEVEL
+ '\setcounter{secnumdepth}{LEVEL}' (*note \setcounter::). See the
+ above table for the level numbers. For instance, if the
+ 'secnumdepth' is 1 in an 'article' then a '\section{Introduction}'
+ command will produce output like '1 Introduction' while
+ '\subsection{Discussion}' will produce output like 'Discussion',
+ without the number. LaTeX's default 'secnumdepth' is 3 in
+ 'article' class and 2 in the 'book' and 'report' classes.
+
+'tocdepth'
+ Controls which sectioning units are listed in the table of
+ contents. The setting '\setcounter{tocdepth}{LEVEL}' makes the
+ sectioning units at LEVEL be the smallest ones listed (*note
+ \setcounter::). See the above table for the level numbers. For
+ instance, if 'tocdepth' is 1 then the table of contents will list
+ sections but not subsections. LaTeX's default 'secnumdepth' is 3
+ in 'article' class and 2 in the 'book' and 'report' classes.

+
+ In each standard class the '\part' command outputs a part number such
+as 'Part I', alone on its line, in boldface, and in large type. Then
+LaTeX outputs TITLE, also alone on its line, in bold and in even larger
+type. In class 'book', the LaTeX default puts each part alone on its
+own page. If the book is two-sided then LaTeX will skip a page if
+needed to have the new part on an odd-numbered page. In 'report' it is
+again alone on a page, but LaTeX won't force it onto an odd-numbered
+page. In an 'article' LaTeX does not put it on a fresh page, but
+instead outputs the part number and part title onto the main document
+page.
- 1. The table of contents.
- 2. The running head at the top of the page.
+ The '*' form shows TITLE but it does not show the part number, does
+not increment the 'part' counter, and produces no table of contents
+entry.
- You may not want the same text in these places as in the main text.
-To handle this, the sectioning commands have an optional argument
-TOCTITLE that, when given, specifies the text for these other places.
+ The optional argument TOC-TITLE will appear as the part title in the
+table of contents (*note Table of contents etc.::) and in running
+headers (*note Page styles::). If it is not present then TITLE will be
+there. This example puts a line break in TITLE but leaves out the break
+in the table of contents.
- Also, all sectioning commands have '*'-forms that print TITLE as
-usual, but do not include a number and do not make an entry in the table
-of contents. For instance:
+ \part[Up from the bottom; my life]{Up from the bottom\\ my life}
- \section*{Preamble}
+ For determining which sectional units are numbered and which appear
+in the table of contents, the level number of a part is -1 (*note
+Sectioning/secnumdepth:: and *note Sectioning/tocdepth::).
- The '\appendix' command changes the way following sectional units are
-numbered. The '\appendix' command itself generates no text and does not
-affect the numbering of parts. The normal use of this command is
-something like
+ In the class 'article', if a paragraph immediately follows the part

+
+ Start a chapter. The standard LaTeX classes 'book' and 'report' have

+
+ This produces a chapter.
+
+ \chapter{Loomings}
+ Call me Ishmael.
+ Some years ago---never mind how long precisely---having little or no
+ money in my purse, and nothing particular to interest me on shore, I
+ thought I would sail about a little and see the watery part of
+ the world.
+
+ The LaTeX default starts each chapter on a fresh page, an
+odd-numbered page if the document is two-sided. It produces a chapter
+number such as 'Chapter 1' in large boldface type (the size is '\huge').
+It then puts TITLE on a fresh line, in boldface type that is still
+larger (size '\Huge'). It also increments the 'chapter' counter, adds
+an entry to the table of contents (*note Table of contents etc.::), and
+sets the running header information (*note Page styles::).
+
+ The '*' form shows TITLE on a fresh line, in boldface. But it does
+not show the chapter number, does not increment the 'chapter' counter,
+produces no table of contents entry, and does not affect the running
+header. (If you use the page style 'headings' in a two-sided document
+then the header will be from the prior chapter.) This example
+illustrates.
+
+ \chapter*{Preamble}
+
+ The optional argument TOC-TITLE will appear as the chapter title in
+the table of contents (*note Table of contents etc.::) and in running
+headers (*note Page styles::). If it is not present then TITLE will be
+there. This shows the full name in the chapter title,
+
+ \chapter[Weyl]{Hermann Klaus Hugo (Peter) Weyl (1885--1955)}
+
+but only 'Weyl' on the contents page. This puts a line break in the
+title but that doesn't work well with running headers so it omits the
+break in the contents
+
+ \chapter[Given it all\\ my story]{Given it all\\ my story}
+
+ For determining which sectional units are numbered and which appear
+in the table of contents, the level number of a chapter is 0 (*note
+Sectioning/secnumdepth:: and *note Sectioning/tocdepth::).
+
+ The paragraph that follows the chapter title is not indented, as is a
+standard typographical practice. To get an indent use the package
+'indentfirst'.
+
+ You can change what is shown for the chapter number. To change it to
+something like 'Lecture 1', put in the preamble either
+'\renewcommand{\chaptername}{Lecture}' or this (*note \makeatletter &
+\makeatother::).
+
+ \makeatletter
+ \renewcommand{\@chapapp}{Lecture}
+ \makeatother
+
+To make this change because of the primary language for the document,
+see the package 'babel'.
+
+ In a two-sided document LaTeX puts a chapter on odd-numbered page, if
+necessary leaving an even-numbered page that is blank except for any
+running headers. To make that page completely blank, see *note
+\clearpage & \cleardoublepage::.
+
+ To change the behavior of the '\chapter' command, you can copy its
+definition from the LaTeX format file and make adjustments. But there
+are also many packages on CTAN that address this. One is 'titlesec'.
+See its documentation, but the example below gives a sense of what it
+can do.
+

+ \titleformat{\chapter}
+ {\Huge\bfseries} % format of title
+ {} % label, such as 1.2 for a subsection
+ {0pt} % length of separation between label and title
+ {} % before-code hook
+
+This omits the chapter number 'Chapter 1' from the page but unlike
+'\chapter*' it keeps the chapter in the table of contents and the
+running headers.

+ in the input-output behavior,

+
+ \section{Turing machines}
+ Despite this desire to downplay implementation,
+ we follow the approach of A~Turing that the
+ first step toward defining the set of computable functions
+ is to reflect on the details of what mechanisms can do.
+
+ For the standard LaTeX classes 'book' and 'report' the default output
+is like '1.2 TITLE' (for chapter 1, section 2), alone on its line and
+flush left, in boldface and a larger type (the type size is '\Large').
+The same holds in 'article' except that there are no chapters in that
+class so it looks like '2 TITLE'.
+
+ The '*' form shows TITLE. But it does not show the section number,
+does not increment the 'section' counter, produces no table of contents
+entry, and does not affect the running header. (If you use the page
+style 'headings' in a two-sided document then the header will be from
+the prior section.)
+
+ The optional argument TOC-TITLE will appear as the section title in
+the table of contents (*note Table of contents etc.::) and in running

+ Canada and Her other Realms and Territories Queen,
+ Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith.}
+
+but only 'Elizabeth II' on the contents page and in the headers. This
+has a line break in TITLE but that does not work with headers so it is
+omitted from the contents and headers.

+
+ For determining which sectional units are numbered and which appear

-One reason for numbering things such as figures and equations is to
-refer the reader to them, as in "See Figure~3 for more details."
-
- Including the figure number in the source is poor practice since if
-that number changes as the document evolves then you must remember to
-update this reference by hand. Instead, LaTeX has you write a "label"
-like '\label{eq:GreensThm}' and refer to it with 'See
-equation~\ref{eq:GreensThm}'.
-
- LaTeX writes the information from the labels to a file with the same
-name as the file containing the '\label{...}' but with an '.aux'
-extension. (The information has the format
-'\newlabel{LABEL}{{CURRENTLABEL}{PAGENUMBER}}' where CURRENTLABEL is the
-current value of the macro '\@currentlabel' that is usually updated
-whenever you call '\refstepcounter{COUNTER}'.)
-
- The most common side effect of the prior paragraph happens when your
-document has a "forward reference", a '\ref{KEY}' that appears earlier
-than the associated '\label{KEY}'; see the example in the
-'\pageref{...}' description. LaTeX gets the information for references
-from the '.aux' file. If this is the first time you are compiling the
-document then you will get a message 'LaTeX Warning: Label(s) may have
-changed. Rerun to get cross references right.' and in the output the
-reference will appear as two question marks '??', in boldface. Or, if
-you change some things so the references change then you get the same
-warning and the output contains the old reference information. The
-solution in either case is just to compile the document a second time.
+We often want something like 'See Theorem~31'. But by-hand typing the
+31 is poor practice. Instead you should write a "label" such as
+'\label{eq:GreensThm}' and then "reference" it, as with 'See

+
+ LaTeX tracks cross reference information in a file having the
+extension '.aux' and with the same base name as the file containing the
+'\label'. So if '\label' is in 'calculus.tex' then the information is
+in 'calculus.aux'. LaTeX puts the information in that file every time
+it runs across a '\label'.
+
+ The behavior described in the prior paragraph results in a quirk that
+happens when your document has a "forward reference", a '\ref' that

- The 'picture' environment allows you to create just about any kind of
-picture you want containing text, lines, arrows and circles. You tell
-LaTeX where to put things in the picture by specifying their
-coordinates. A coordinate is a number that may have a decimal point and
-a minus sign--a number like '5', '0.3' or '-3.1416'. A coordinate
-specifies a length in multiples of the unit length '\unitlength', so if
-'\unitlength' has been set to '1cm', then the coordinate 2.54 specifies
-a length of 2.54 centimeters.
-
- You should only change the value of '\unitlength', using the
-'\setlength' command, outside of a 'picture' environment. The default
-value is '1pt'.
-
- The 'picture' package redefine the 'picture' environment so that
-everywhere a number is used in a PICTURE COMMANDS to specify a
-coordinate, one can use alternatively a length. Be aware however that
-this will prevent scaling those lengths by changing '\unitlength'.
-
- A "position" is a pair of coordinates, such as '(2.4,-5)', specifying
-the point with x-coordinate '2.4' and y-coordinate '-5'. Coordinates
-are specified in the usual way with respect to an origin, which is
-normally at the lower-left corner of the picture. Note that when a
-position appears as an argument, it is not enclosed in braces; the
-parentheses serve to delimit the argument.
-
- The 'picture' environment has one mandatory argument which is a
-position (WIDTH,HEIGHT), which specifies the size of the picture. The
-environment produces a rectangular box with these WIDTH and HEIGHT.
-
- The 'picture' environment also has an optional position argument
-(XOFFSET,YOFFSET), following the size argument, that can change the
-origin. (Unlike ordinary optional arguments, this argument is not
-contained in square brackets.) The optional argument gives the
-coordinates of the point at the lower-left corner of the picture
-(thereby determining the origin). For example, if '\unitlength' has
-been set to '1mm', the command
+ You can also use this environment to place arbitrary material at an
+exact location.
+
+ \usepackage{color,graphicx} % in preamble
+ ...
+ \begin{center}
+ \setlength{\unitlength}{\textwidth}
+ \begin{picture}(1,1) % leave space, \textwidth wide and tall
+ \put(0,0){\includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{desertedisland.jpg}}
+ \put(0.25,0.35){\textcolor{red}{X Treasure here}}
+ \end{picture}
+ \end{center}
+
+The red X will be precisely a quarter of the '\linewidth' from the left
+margin, and '0.35\linewidth' up from the bottom. Another example of
+this usage is to put similar code in the page header to get repeat
+material on each of a document's pages.
+
+ The 'picture' environment has one required argument, a pair of
+numbers (WIDTH,HEIGHT). Multiply these by the value '\unitlength' to
+get the nominal size of the output, the space that LaTeX reserves on the
+output page. This nominal size need not be how large the picture really
+is; LaTeX will draw things from the picture outside the picture's box.
+
+ This environment also has an optional argument (XOFFSET,YOFFSET). It
+is used to shift the origin. Unlike most optional arguments, this one
+is not contained in square brackets. As with the required argument, it
+consists of two real numbers. Multiply these by '\unitlength' to get
+the point at the lower-left corner of the picture.
+
+ For example, if '\unitlength' has been set to '1mm', the command
\begin{picture}(100,200)(10,20)
-produces a picture of width 100 millimeters and height 200 millimeters,
-whose lower-left corner is the point (10,20) and whose upper-right
-corner is therefore the point (110,220). When you first draw a picture,
-you typically omit the optional argument, leaving the origin at the
-lower-left corner. If you then want to modify your picture by shifting
-everything, you can just add the appropriate optional argument.
+produces a box of width 100 millimeters and height 200 millimeters. The
+picture's origin is the point (10mm,20mm) and so the lower-left corner
+is there, and the upper-right corner is at (110mm,220mm). When you
+first draw a picture you typically omit the optional argument, leaving
+the origin at the lower-left corner. If you then want to modify your
+picture by shifting everything, you can just add the appropriate
+optional argument.
+
+ Each PICTURE COMMAND tells LaTeX where to put something by naming its
+position. A "position" is a pair such as '(2.4,-5)' giving the x- and
+y-coordinates. A "coordinate" is a not a length, it is a real number
+(it may have a decimal point or a minus sign). It specifies a length in
+multiples of the unit length '\unitlength', so if '\unitlength' has been
+set to '1cm', then the coordinate 2.54 specifies a length of 2.54
+centimeters.
+
+ LaTeX's default for '\unitlength' is '1pt'. it is a rigid length
+(*note Lengths::). Change it with the '\setlength' command (*note
+\setlength::). Make this change only outside of a 'picture'
+environment.
- The environment's mandatory argument determines the nominal size of
-the picture. This need bear no relation to how large the picture really
-is; LaTeX will happily allow you to put things outside the picture, or
-even off the page. The picture's nominal size is used by LaTeX in
-determining how much room to leave for it.
+ Coordinates are given with respect to an origin, which is normally at
+the lower-left corner of the picture. Note that when a position appears
+as an argument, as with '\put(1,2){...}', it is not enclosed in braces
+since the parentheses serve to delimit the argument. Also, unlike in
+some computer graphics systems, larger y-coordinates are further up the
+page.
- Everything that appears in a picture is drawn by the '\put' command.
-The command
+ There are four ways to put things in a picture: '\put', '\multiput',
+'\qbezier', and '\graphpaper'. The most often used is '\put'. This
- \put (11.3,-.3){...}
+ \put(11.3,-0.3){...}
-puts the object specified by '...' in the picture, with its reference
-point at coordinates (11.3,-.3). The reference points for various
-objects will be described below.
+places the object with its reference point at coordinates (11.3,-0.3).
+The reference points for various objects will be described below. The

+corner of the box. In this picture
- The '\put' command creates an "LR box". You can put anything that

- \framebox(WIDTH,HEIGHT)[POS]{...}
+ \qbezier(1,1)(1.25,0.75)(1,0)
- The '\framebox' command is like '\makebox' (see previous section),

- The '\framebox' command produces a rule of thickness '\fboxrule', and
-leaves a space '\fboxsep' between the rule and the contents of the box.

-8.19.6 '\line'
---------------
+ \put(1,3){\line(2,5){4}}
-Synopsis:
+For every over 2, this line will go up 5. Because TRAVEL specifies that
+this goes over 4, it must go up 10. Thus its endpoint is
+(1,3)+(4,10)=(5,13). In particular, note that TRAVEL=4 is not the
+length of the line, it is the change in x.
- \line(XSLOPE,YSLOPE){LENGTH}
+ The arguments X_RUN and Y_RISE are integers that can be positive,
+negative, or zero. (If both are 0 then LaTeX treats the second as 1.)
+With '\put(X_INIT,Y_INIT){\line(X_RUN,Y_RISE){TRAVEL}}', if X_RUN is
+negative then the line's ending point has a first coordinate that is
+less than X_INIT. If Y_RISE is negative then the line's ending point
+has a second coordinate that is less than Y_INIT.
- The '\line' command draws a line with the given LENGTH and slope
-XSLOPE/YSLOPE.
+ If TRAVEL is negative then you get 'LaTeX Error: Bad \line or \vector
+argument.'
- Standard LaTeX can only draw lines with SLOPE = x/y, where x and y
-have integer values from -6 through 6. For lines of any slope, and
-plenty of other shapes, see 'pict2e' and many other packages on CTAN.
+ Standard LaTeX can only draw lines with a limited range of slopes
+because these lines are made by putting together line segments from
+pre-made fonts. The two numbers X_RUN and Y_RISE must have integer
+values from -6 through 6. Also, they must be relatively prime, so that
+(X_RUN,Y_RISE) can be (2,1) but not (4,2) (if you choose the latter then
+instead of lines you get sequences of arrowheads; the solution is to
+switch to the former). To get lines of arbitrary slope and plenty of
+other shapes in a system like 'picture', see the package 'pict2e' on

- The '\shortstack' command produces a stack of objects. The valid
-positions are:
+ Draw a line ending in an arrow. The slope of that line is: it
+vertically rises Y_RISE for every horizontal X_RUN. The TRAVEL is the
+total horizontal change -- it is not the length of the vector, it is the
+change in x. In the special case of vertical vectors, if
+(X_RUN,Y_RISE)=(0,1), then TRAVEL gives the change in y.
+
+ For an example see *note picture::.
+
+ For elaboration on X_RUN and Y_RISE see *note \line::. As there, the
+values of X_RUN and Y_RISE are limited. For '\vector' you must chooses
+integers between -4 and 4, inclusive. Also, the two you choose must be
+relatively prime. Thus, '\vector(2,1){4}' is acceptable but

- This command writes an entry to the '.aux' file containing the item's

-'\begin{document}' command, the item's LABEL is associated with
-'cite_key', causing references to CITE_KEY with a '\cite' command (*note

+the first entry will be styled as '[Lamport 1993] Leslie ...' (The
+amount of horizontal space that LaTeX leaves for the label depends on
+the WIDEST-LABEL argument of the 'thebibliography' environment; see

+will produce '... based on [Lamport 1994]'.
+
+ If you mix '\bibitem' entries having a LABEL with those that do not

+ If you use the same CITE_KEY twice then you get 'LaTeX Warning: There

+ Under the hood, LaTeX remembers the CITE_KEY and LABEL information

+and '\bibcite{texbook}{1}' to appear in that file. The '.aux' file is
+read by the '\begin{document}' command and then the information is
+available for '\cite' commands. This explains why you need to run LaTeX
+twice to resolve references: once to write it out and once to read it
+in.

+hyphenation points, while almost never using an incorrect one. The '\-'
+command is for exceptional cases.
+
+ For example, LaTeX does not ordinarily hyphenate words containing a
+hyphen. Below, the long and hyphenated word means LaTeX has to put in
+unacceptably large spaces to set the narrow column.

10 Page breaking
****************
-LaTeX starts new pages asynchronously, when enough material has
-accumulated to fill up a page. Usually this happens automatically, but
-sometimes you may want to influence the breaks.
+Ordinarily LaTeX automatically takes care of breaking output into pages
+with its usual aplomb. But if you are writing commands, or tweaking the
+final version of a document, then you may need to understand how to
+influence its actions.
+
+ LaTeX's algorithm for splitting a document into pages is more complex
+than just waiting until there is enough material to fill a page and
+outputting the result. Instead, LaTeX typesets more material than would
+fit on the page and then chooses a break that is optimal in some way (it
+has the smallest badness). An example of the advantage of this approach
+is that if the page has some vertical space that can be stretched or
+shrunk, such as with rubber lengths between paragraphs, then LaTeX can
+use that to avoid widow lines (where a new page starts with the last
+line of a paragraph; LaTeX can squeeze the extra line onto the first
+page) and orphans (where the first line of paragraph is at the end of a
+page; LaTeX can stretch the material of the first page so the extra line
+falls on the second page). Another example is where LaTeX uses
+available vertical shrinkage to fit on a page not just the header for a
+new section but also the first two lines of that section.
+
+ But LaTeX does not optimize over the entire document's set of page
+breaks. So it can happen that the first page break is great but the
+second one is lousy; to break the current page LaTeX doesn't look as far
+ahead as the next page break. So occasionally you may want to influence
+page breaks while preparing a final version of a document.

-Inside a 'table' environment the '\footnote' command does not work. For
-instance, if the code below appears on its own then the footnote simply
-disappears; there is a footnote mark in the table cell but nothing is
-set at the bottom of the page.
+Inside a 'tabular' or 'array' environment the '\footnote' command does
+not work; there is a footnote mark in the table cell but the footnote
+text does not appear. The solution is to use a 'minipage' environment
+as here (*note minipage::).
\begin{center}
+ \begin{minipage}{\textwidth} \centering
\begin{tabular}{l|l}
- \textsc{Ship} &\textsc{Book} \\ \hline
- \textit{HMS Sophie} &Master and Commander \\

+ \textit{HMS Lively} &Post Captain \\
+ \textit{HMS Surprise} &A number of books\footnote{%
+ Starting with HMS Surprise.}
\end{tabular}
+ \end{minipage}
\end{center}
- The solution is to surround the 'tabular' environment with a
-'minipage' environment, as here (*note minipage::).
+ Inside a 'minipage', footnote marks are lowercase letters. Change
+that with something like
+'\renewcommand{\thempfootnote}{\arabic{mpfootnote}}' (*note \alph \Alph
+\arabic \roman \Roman \fnsymbol::).
+
+ The footnotes in the prior example appear at the bottom of the
+'minipage'. To have them appear at the bottom of the main page, as part
+of the regular footnote sequence, use the '\footnotemark' and
+'\footnotetext' pair and make a new counter.
+ \newcounter{mpFootnoteValueSaver}
\begin{center}

\end{center}
- The same technique will work inside a floating 'table' environment
-(*note table::). To get the footnote at the bottom of the page use the
-'tablefootnote' package, as illustrated in this example. If you put
-'\usepackage{tablefootnote}' in the preamble and use the code shown then
-the footnote appears at the bottom and is numbered in sequence with
-other footnotes.

Lengths come in two types. A "rigid length" (what Plain TeX calls a
-"dimen") such as '10pt' cannot contain a 'plus' or 'minus' component. A
-"rubber length" (what Plain TeX calls a "skip") can contain those, as
-with '1cm plus0.05cm minus0.01cm'. These give the ability to stretch or

+"dimen") such as '10pt' does not contain a 'plus' or 'minus' component.
+The above example shows a rigid length. A "rubber length" (what Plain
+TeX calls a "skip") can contain those components, as with '1cm
+plus0.05cm minus0.01cm'. Here the '1cm' is the "natural length" while
+the other two, the 'plus' and 'minus' components, allow the length to
+stretch or shrink.
+
+ Shrinking is simpler: with '1cm minus 0.05cm', the natural length is
+1cm but if smaller is needed then TeX can shrink it down as far as
+0.95cm. Beyond that, TeX refuses to shrink any more. Thus, below the
+first one works fine, producing a space of 98 points between the two
+bars.
+
+ XXX\showhbox{300pt}{%
+ \blackbar{101pt}\hspace{100pt minus 2pt}\blackbar{101pt}}YYY
+
+ XXX\showhbox{300pt}{%
+ \blackbar{105pt}\hspace{100pt minus 1pt}\blackbar{105pt}}YYY
+
+But the second one gets a warning like 'Overfull \hbox (1.0pt too wide)
+detected at line 17'. In the output the first 'Y' is overwritten by the
+end of the black bar, because the box's material is wider than the 300pt
+allocated, as TeX has refused to shrink the total to less than
+309 points.
+
+ Stretching is like shrinking except that if TeX is asked to stretch
+beyond the given amount, it won't refuse. Here the first line is fine,
+producing a space of 110 points between the bars.
+
+ XXX\showhbox{300pt}{%
+ \blackbar{95pt}\hspace{100pt plus 10pt}\blackbar{95pt}}YYY
+
+ XXX\showhbox{300pt}{%
+ \blackbar{95pt}\hspace{100pt plus 1pt}\blackbar{95pt}}YYY
+
+In the second line TeX needs a stretch of 10 points and only 1 point was
+specified. In this situation, TeX stretches the space to the required
+length, but it complains with a warning like 'Underfull \hbox (badness
+10000) detected at line 22'. (We won't discuss badness; the point is
+that the system was not given as much stretch as needed.)
+
+ You can put both stretch and shrink in the same length, as in '1ex
+plus 0.05ex minus 0.02ex'.
+
+ If TeX is setting two or more rubber lengths then it allocates the
+stretch or shrink in proportion.
+
+ XXX\showhbox{300pt}{\blackbar{100pt}% left
+ \hspace{0pt plus 50pt}\blackbar{80pt}\hspace{0pt plus 10pt}% middle
+ \blackbar{100pt}}YYY % right
+
+The outside bars take up 100 points, so the middle needs another 100.
+In the middle the bar takes up 80 points, so the two '\hspace''s must
+stretch 20 points. Because the two say 'plus 50pt' and 'plus 10pt', TeX
+gets 5/6 of the stretch from the first space and 1/6 from the second.
The 'plus' or 'minus' component of a rubber length can contain a
"fill" component, as in '1in plus2fill'. This gives the length infinite
-stretchability or shrinkability, so that the length in the prior
-sentence can be set by TeX to any distance greater than or equal to

+===========
+
+Synopsis (note that while reading the input TeX, converts two
+consecutive newlines to a '\par'):
-'\indent' produces a horizontal space whose width equals to the
-'\parindent' length, the normal paragraph indentation. It is used to
-add paragraph indentation where it would otherwise be suppressed.
+ \par
- The default value for '\parindent' is '1em' in two-column mode,
-otherwise '15pt' for '10pt' documents, '17pt' for '11pt', and '1.5em'
-for '12pt'.
+ End the current paragraph. The usual way to separate paragraphs is
+with a blank line but the '\par' command is entirely equivalent. This
+command is robust (*note \protect::).
+
+ This example uses '\par' rather than a blank line simply for
+readability.
+
+ \newcommand{\syllabusLegalese}{%
+ \whatCheatingIs\par\whatHappensWhenICatchYou}
+
+ The '\par' command does nothing in LR mode or a vertical mode but it
+terminates paragraph mode, bringing LaTeX to vertical mode (*note
+Modes::).
+
+ You cannot use the '\par' command in math mode or in the argument of
+many commands, such as the '\section' command (*note Making paragraphs::
+and *note \newcommand & \renewcommand::).
+
+ The '\par' command differs from the '\paragraph' command in that the
+latter is, like '\section' or '\subsection', a sectioning unit used by
+the standard LaTeX documents.
+
+ The '\par' command differs from '\newline' and the line break double
+backslash, '\\', in that \par ends the paragraph not just the line. It
+also triggers the addition of the between-paragraph vertical space
+'\parskip' (*note \parindent & \parskip::).
+
+ The output from this example
+
+ xyz
+
+ \setlength{\parindent}{3in}
+ \setlength{\parskip}{5in}
+ \noindent test\indent test1\par test2
+

16 Math formulas
****************
-There are three environments that put LaTeX in math mode:
+Produce mathematical text by putting LaTeX into math mode or display
+math mode (*note Modes::). This example shows both.
+
+ The wave equation for \( u \) is
+ \begin{displaymath}
+ \frac{\partial^2u}{\partial t^2} = c^2\nabla^2u
+ \end{displaymath}
+ where \( \nabla^2 \) is the spatial Laplacian and \( c \) is constant.
+
+Math mode is for inline mathematics. In the above example it is invoked
+by the starting '\(' and finished by the matching ending '\)'. Display
+math mode is for displayed equations and here is invoked by the
+'displaymath' environment. Note that any mathematical text whatever,
+including mathematical text consisting of just one character, is handled
+in math mode.
+
+ When in math mode or display math mode, LaTeX handles many aspects of
+your input text differently than in other text modes. For example,
+
+ contrast x+y with \( x+y \)
+
+in math mode the letters are in italics and the spacing around the plus
+sign is different.
+
+ There are three ways to make inline formulas, to put LaTeX in math
+mode.
+
+ \( MATHEMATICAL MATERIAL \)
+ $ MATHEMATICAL MATERIAL $
+ \begin{math} MATHEMATICAL MATERIAL \end{math}
-'math'
- For formulas that appear right in the text.
-'displaymath'
- For formulas that appear on their own line.
-'equation'
- The same as the displaymath environment except that it adds an
- equation number in the right margin.
+The first form is preferred and the second is quite common, but the
+third form is rarely used. You can sometimes use one and sometimes
+another, as in '\(x\) and $y$'. You can use these in paragraph mode or
+in LR mode (*note Modes::).
- The 'math' environment can be used in both paragraph and LR mode, but
-the 'displaymath' and 'equation' environments can be used only in
-paragraph mode. The 'math' and 'displaymath' environments are used so
-often that they have the following short forms:
+ To make displayed formulas, put LaTeX into display math mode with
+either:
- \(...\) instead of \begin{math}...\end{math}
- \[...\] instead of \begin{displaymath}...\end{displaymath}
+ \begin{displaymath}
+ MATHEMATICAL MATERIAL
+ \end{displaymath}
- In fact, the 'math' environment is so common that it has an even
-shorter form:
+or
- $ ... $ instead of \(...\)
+ \begin{equation}
+ MATHEMATICAL MATERIAL
+ \end{equation}
- The '\boldmath' command changes math letters and symbols to be in a
-bold font. It is used _outside_ of math mode. Conversely, the
-'\unboldmath' command changes math glyphs to be in a normal font; it too
-is used _outside_ of math mode.
+(*note displaymath::, *note equation::). The only difference is that
+with the 'equation' environment, LaTeX puts a formula number alongside
+the formula. The construct '\[ MATH \]' is equivalent to
+'\begin{displaymath} MATH \end{displaymath}'. These environments can
+only be used in paragraph mode (*note Modes::).
+
+ The two mathematics modes are similar, but there are some
+differences. One involves the placement of subscripts and superscripts;
+in display math mode they are further apart and in inline math mode they
+are closer together.
+
+ Sometimes you want the display math typographical treatment to happen
+in the inline math mode. For this, the '\displaystyle' declaration
+forces the size and style of the formula to be that of 'displaymath'.
+Thus '\(\displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^\infty x_n\)' will have the limits
+above and below the summation sign, not next to it. Another example is
+that
+
+ \begin{tabular}{r|cc}
+ \textsc{Name} &\textsc{Series} &\textsc{Sum} \\ \hline
+ Arithmetic &\( a+(a+b)+(a+2b)+\cdots+(a+(n-1)b) \)
+ &\( na+(n-1)n\cdot\frac{b}{2}\) \\
+ Geometric &\( a+ab+ab^2+\cdots+ab^{n-1} \)
+ &\(\displaystyle a\cdot\frac{1-b^n}{1-b}\) \\
+ \end{tabular}
- The '\displaystyle' declaration forces the size and style of the
-formula to be that of 'displaymath', e.g., with limits above and below
-summations. For example:
+because it has no '\displaystyle', the 'Arithmetic' line's fraction will
+be scrunched. But, because of its '\displaystyle', the 'Geometric'
+line's fraction will be easy to read, with characters the same size as
+in the rest of the line.

- \int_0^{10} x^2 \,dx
+ In this example the '0''s and '1''s are subscripts while the '2''s
+are superscripts.
- You can put a superscript or subscript before a symbol with a
-construct such as '{}_t K^2' in math mode (the initial '{}' prevents the
-prefixed subscript from being attached to any prior symbols in the
-expression).
+ \( (x_0+x_1)^2 \leq (x_0)^2+(x_1)^2 \)
- Outside of math mode, a construct like 'A
-test$_\textnormal{subscript}$' will produce a subscript typeset in text
-mode, not math mode. Note that there are packages specialized for
-writing Chemical formulas such as 'mhchem'.
+ To have the subscript or superscript contain more than one character,
+surround the expression with curly braces, as in 'e^{-2x}'. This
+example's fourth line shows curly braces used to group an expression for
+the exponent.
+
+ \begin{displaymath}
+ (3^3)^3=27^3=19\,683
+ \qquad
+ 3^{(3^3)}=3^{27}=7\,625\,597\,484\,987
+ \end{displaymath}
+
+ LaTeX knows how to handle a superscript on a superscript, or a
+subscript on a subscript, or supers on subs, or subs on supers. So,
+expressions such as 'e^{x^2}' and 'x_{i_0}' give correct output. Note
+the use in those expressions of curly braces to give the BASE a
+determined EXP. If you enter '\(3^3^3\)' then you get 'Double
+superscript'.
+
+ LaTeX does the right thing when something has both a subscript and a
+superscript. In this example the integral has both. They come out in
+the correct place without any author intervention.
+
+ \begin{displaymath}
+ \int_{x=a}^b f'(x)\,dx = f(b)-f(a)
+ \end{displaymath}
+
+Note the parentheses around 'x=a' to make the entire expression a
+subscript.
+
+ To put a superscript or subscript before a symbol, use a construct
+like '{}_t K^2'. The empty curly braces '{}' give the subscript
+something to attach to and keeps it from accidentally attaching to a
+prior symbols.
+
+ Using the subscript or superscript command outside of math mode or
+display math mode, as in 'the expression x^2', will get you the error
+'Missing $ inserted'.
+
+ A common reason to want subscripts outside of a mathematics mode is

+Synopsis (used in paragraph mode or LR mode):
+
+ \boldmath \( MATH \)
+
+or
+
+ \unboldmath \( MATH \)
+
+ Declarations to change the letters and symbols in MATH to be in a
+bold font, or to countermand that and bring back the regular (non-bold)
+default. They must be used when not in math mode or display math mode
+(*note Modes::). Both commands are fragile (*note \protect::).
+
+ In this example each '\boldmath' command takes place inside an
+'\mbox',
+
+ we have $\mbox{\boldmath \( v \)} = 5\cdot\mbox{\boldmath \( u \)$}$
+
+which means '\boldmath' is only called in a text mode, here LR mode, and
+explains why LaTeX must switch to math mode to set 'v' and 'u'.
+
+ If you use either command inside math mode, as with 'Trouble: \(
+\boldmath x \)', then you get something like 'LaTeX Font Warning:
+Command \boldmath invalid in math mode on input line 11' and 'LaTeX Font
+Warning: Command \mathversion invalid in math mode on input line 11'.
+
+ There are many issues with '\boldmath'. New documents should use the
+'bm' package provided by the LaTeX Project team. A complete description
+is outside the scope of this document (see the full documentation on
+CTAN) but even this small example
+
+ \usepackage{bm} % in preamble
+ ...
+ we have $\bm{v} = 5\cdot\bm{u}$

+continues.
+
+ \begin{array}{cccc}
+ a_{0,0} &a_{0,1} &a_{0,2} &\ldots \\
+ a_{1,0} &\ddots \\
+ \vdots
+ \end{array}
+
+ LaTeX provides these.
+
+'\cdots'
+ Horizontal ellipsis with the dots raised to the center of the line,
+ as in U+22EF. Used as: '\( a_0\cdot a_1\cdots a_{n-1} \)'.
+
+'\ddots'
+ Diagonal ellipsis, U+22F1. See the above array example for a
+ usage.
+
+'\ldots'
+ Ellipsis on the baseline, U+2026. Used as: '\( x_0,\ldots x_{n-1}
+ \)'. Another example is the above array example. A synonym is
+ '\mathellipsis'. A synonym from the 'amsmath' package is '\hdots'.
+
+ You can also use this command outside of mathematical text, as in
+ 'The gears, brakes, \ldots{} are all broken'. (In a paragraph mode
+ or LR mode a synonym for '\ldots' is '\dots'.)
+
+'\vdots'
+ Vertical ellipsis, U+22EE. See the above array example for a usage.
+
+ The 'amsmath' package has the command '\dots' to semantically mark up
+ellipses. This example produces two different-looking outputs for the
+first two uses of the '\dots' command.
+
+ \usepackage{amsmath} % in preamble
+ ...
+ Suppose that \( p_0, p_1, \dots, p_{n-1} \) lists all of the primes.
+ Observe that \( p_0\cdot p_1 \dots \cdot p_{n-1} +1 \) is not a
+ multiple of any \( p_i \).
+ Conclusion: there are infinitely many primes \( p_0, p_1, \dotsc \).
+
+In the first line LaTeX looks to the comma following '\dots' to
+determine that it should output an ellipsis on the baseline. The second
+line has a '\cdot' following '\dots' so LaTeX outputs an ellipsis that
+is on the math axis, vertically centered. However, the third usage has
+no follow-on character so you have to tell LaTeX what to do. You can
+use one of the commands: '\dotsc' if you need the ellipsis appropriate
+for a comma following, '\dotsb' if you need the ellipses that fits when
+the dots are followed by a binary operator or relation symbol, '\dotsi'
+for dots with integrals, or '\dotso' for others.

-16.5 Spacing in math mode
+16.5 Over- and Underlining
+==========================
+
+LaTeX provides commands for making overlines or underlines, or putting
+braces over or under some material.
+
+'\underline{TEXT}'
+ Underline TEXT. Works inside math mode, and outside. The line is
+ always completely below the text, taking account of descenders, so
+ in '\(\underline{y}\)' the line is lower than in
+ '\(\underline{x}\)'. This command is fragile (*note \protect::).
+
+ Note that the package 'ulem' does text mode underlining and allows
+ line breaking as well as a number of other features. See the
+ documentation on CTAN. See also *note \hrulefill & \dotfill:: for
+ producing a line, for such things as a signature.
+
+'\overline{TEXT}'
+ Put a horizontal line over TEXT. Works inside math mode, and
+ outside. For example, '\overline{x+y}'. Note that this differs
+ from the command '\bar' (*note Math accents::).
+
+'\underbrace{MATH}'
+ Put a brace under MATH. For example, this
+ '(1-\underbrace{1/2)+(1/2}-1/3)' emphasizes the telescoping part.
+ Attach text to the brace by using subscript, '_', or superscript,
+ '^', as here.
+
+ \begin{displaymath}
+ 1+1/2+\underbrace{1/3+1/4}_{>1/2}+
+ \underbrace{1/5+1/6+1/7+1/8}_{>1/2}+\cdots
+ \end{displaymath}
+
+ The superscript appears on top of the expression, and so can look
+ unconnected to the underbrace.
+
+'\overbrace{MATH}'
+ Put a brace over MATH, as with
+ '\overbrace{x+x+\cdots+x}^{\mbox{\(k\) times}}'. See also
+ '\underbrace'.
+
+ The package 'mathtools' adds an over- and underbrace, as well as some
+improvements on the braces. See the documentation on CTAN.

+16.6 Spacing in math mode
=========================
-In a 'math' environment, LaTeX ignores the spaces that you use in the
-source, and instead puts in the spacing according to the normal rules
-for mathematics texts.
+When typesetting mathematics, LaTeX puts in spacing according to the
+normal rules for mathematics texts. If you enter 'y=m x' then LaTeX
+ignores the space and in the output the m is next to the x, as y=mx.
- Many math mode spacing definitions are expressed in terms of the math
-unit "mu" given by 1 em = 18 mu, where the em is taken from the current
-math symbols family (*note Units of length::). LaTeX provides the
-following commands for use in math mode:
+ But LaTeX's rules sometimes need tweaking. For example, in an
+integral the tradition is to put a small extra space between the 'f(x)'
+and the 'dx', here done with the '\,' command.
+
+ \int_0^1 f(x)\,dx
+

- "Paragraph mode" is the most common; it's the one LaTeX is in when
-processing ordinary text. In this mode, LaTeX breaks the input text
-into lines and breaks the lines into pages.
-
- LaTeX is in "math mode" when it's generating a mathematical formula,
-either displayed math or within a line.
-
- In "LR mode", as in paragraph mode, LaTeX considers the output that
-it produces to be a string of words with spaces between them. However,
-unlike paragraph mode, LaTeX keeps going from left to right; it never
-starts a new line in LR mode. Even if you put a hundred words into an
-'\mbox', LaTeX would keep typesetting them from left to right inside a
-single box (and then most likely complain because the resulting box was
-too wide to fit on the line). LaTeX is in LR mode when it starts making
-a box with an '\mbox' command. You can get it to enter a different mode
-inside the box--for example, you can make it enter math mode to put a
-formula in the box.
-
- There are also several text-producing commands and environments for
-making a box that put LaTeX into paragraph mode. The box made by one of
-these commands or environments will be called a 'parbox'. When LaTeX is
-in paragraph mode while making a box, it is said to be in "inner
-paragraph mode" (no page breaks). Its normal paragraph mode, which it
-starts out in, is called "outer paragraph mode".
+17 Modes
+********
+
+As LaTeX processes your document, at any point it is in one of six
+modes. They fall into three categories of two each, the horizontal
+modes, the math modes, and the vertical modes. Some commands only work
+in one mode or another (in particular, many commands only work in one of
+the math modes), and error messages will refer to these.
+
+ * "Paragraph mode" is what LaTeX is in when processing ordinary text.
+ It breaks the input text into lines and breaks the lines into
+ pages. This is the mode LaTeX is in most of the time.
+
+ "LR mode" (for left-to-right mode; in plain TeX this is called
+ "restricted horizontal mode") is in effect when LaTeX starts making
+ a box with an '\mbox' command. As in paragraph mode, LaTeX's
+ output is a string of words with spaces between them. Unlike in
+ paragraph mode, in LR mode LaTeX never starts a new line, it just
+ keeps going from left to right. (Although LaTeX will not complain
+ that the LR box is too long, when it is finished and next tries to
+ put that box into a line, it could very well complain that the
+ finished LR box won't fit there.)
+
+ * "Math mode" is when LaTeX is generating an inline mathematical
+ formula.
+
+ "Display math mode" is when LaTeX is generating a displayed
+ mathematical formula. (Displayed formulas differ somewhat from
+ inline ones. One example is that the placement of the subscript on
+ '\int' differs in the two situations.)
+
+ * "Vertical mode" is when LaTeX is building the list of lines and
+ other material making the output page. This is the mode LaTeX is
+ in when it starts a document.
+
+ "Internal vertical mode" is in effect when LaTeX starts making a
+ '\vbox'. This is the vertical analogue of LR mode.
+
+For instance, if you begin a LaTeX article with 'Let \( x \) be ...'
+then these are the modes: first LaTeX starts every document in vertical
+mode, then it reads the 'L' and switches to paragraph mode, then the
+next switch happens at the '\(' where LaTeX changes to math mode, and
+then when it leaves the formula it pops back to paragraph mode.
+
+ Paragraph mode has two subcases. If you use a '\parbox' command or
+or a 'minipage' then LaTeX is put into paragraph mode. But it will not
+put a page break here. Inside one of these boxes, called a "parbox",
+LaTeX is in "inner paragraph mode". Its more usual situation, where it
+can put page breaks, is "outer paragraph mode" (*note Page breaking::).

+below produces an article, two-sided, with the pagestyle 'headings'. On
+this document's left hand pages, LaTeX wants (in addition to the page
+number) the title of the current section. On its right hand pages LaTeX
+wants the title of the current subsection. When it makes up a page,
+LaTeX gets this information from the commands '\leftmark' and
+'\rightmark'. So it is up to '\section' and '\subsection' to store that
+information there.
+
+ \documentclass[twoside]{article}
+ \pagestyle{headings}
+ \begin{document}

+ \section{Section 2}
+ ...
+ \subsection{Subsection 2.1}
+ ...
+ \subsection{Subsection 2.2}
+ ...
+
+Suppose that the second section falls on a left page. Although when the
+page starts it is in the first section, LaTeX will put 'Section 2' in
+the left page header. As to the right header, if no subsection starts
+before the end of the right page then LaTeX blanks the right hand
+header. If a subsection does appear before the right page finishes then
+there are two cases. If at least one subsection starts on the right
+hand page then LaTeX will put in the right header the title of the first
+subsection starting on that right page. If at least one of 2.1, 2.2,
+..., starts on the left page but none starts on the right then LaTeX
+puts in the right hand header the title of the last subsection to start,
+that is, the one in effect during the right hand page.
+
+ To accomplish this, in a two-sided article, LaTeX has '\section'
+issue a command '\markboth', setting '\leftmark' to 'Section 2' and
+setting '\rightmark' to blank. And, LaTeX has '\subsection' issue a
+command '\markright', setting '\rightmark' to 'Subsection 2.1', etc.
+
Here are the descriptions of '\markboth' and '\markright':
-'\markboth{LEFT}{RIGHT}'
- Sets both the left and the right heading. A "left-hand heading"
- (LEFT) is generated by the last '\markboth' command before the end
- of the page, while a "right-hand heading" (RIGHT) is generated by
- the first '\markboth' or '\markright' that comes on the page if
- there is one, otherwise by the last one before the page.
+'\markboth{LEFT-HEAD}{RIGHT-HEAD}'
+ Sets both the right hand and left hand heading information for
+ either a page style of 'headings' or 'myheadings'. A left hand
+ page heading LEFT-HEAD is generated by the last '\markboth' command
+ before the end of the page. A right hand page heading RIGHT-HEAD
+ is generated by the first '\markboth' or '\markright' that comes on
+ the page if there is one, otherwise by the last one that came
+ before that page.
'\markright{RIGHT}'
- Sets the right heading, leaving the left heading unchanged.

- Add the horizontal space given by LENGTH. The LENGTH is a rubber
-length, that is, it may contain a 'plus' or 'minus' component, in any
-unit that LaTeX understands (*note Lengths::).
+ Insert the horizontal space LENGTH. The LENGTH can be positive,
+negative, or zero; adding negative space is like backspacing. It is a
+rubber length, that is, it may contain a 'plus' or 'minus' component, or
+both (*note Lengths::). Because the space is stretchable and
+shrinkable, it is sometimes called "glue".
+
+ This makes a line with 'Name:' an inch from the right margin.
+
+ \noindent\makebox[\linewidth][r]{Name:\hspace{1in}}
+
+ The '*'-version inserts horizontal space that non-discardable. More
+precisely, when TeX breaks a paragraph into lines any white space--glues
+and kerns--that come at a line break are discarded. The '*'-version
+avoids that (technically, it adds a non-discardable invisible item in
+front of the space).
+
+ In this example
- This command can add both positive and negative space; adding
-negative space is like backspacing.

+ fathers brought forth on this continent, a new \hspace*{1in},
+ conceived in \hspace*{1in}, and dedicated to the proposition
+ that all men are created \hspace*{1in}.}
- Normally when TeX breaks a paragraph into lines it discards white
-space (glues and kerns) that would come at the start of a line, so you
-get an inter-word space or a line break between words but not both.
-This command's starred version '\hspace*{...}' puts a non-discardable
-invisible item in front of the space, so the space appears in the
-output.
+the 1 inch blank following 'conceived in' falls at the start of a line.
+If you erase the '*' then LaTeX discards the blank.

+ \end{center}
+
+Because the argument to each '\hspace' has 'minus 0.25cm', each can
+shrink a little if the three figures are too wide. But each space won't
+shrink more than 0.25cm (*note Lengths::).

+
+ While LaTeX is laying out the material, it may stretch or shrink the
+gaps between words. (This space is not a character; it is called the
+"interword glue"; *note \hspace::). The '\spacefactor' command (from
+Plain TeX) allows you to, for instance, have the space after a period
+stretch more than the space after a word-ending letter.
After LaTeX places each character, or rule or other box, it sets a
parameter called the "space factor". If the next thing in the input is
-a space then this parameter affects how much of a horizontal gap LaTeX
-will have it span. (This gap is not a character; it is called
-"interword glue".) A larger space factor means that the glue gap can
-stretch more and shrink less.
-
- Normally, the space factor is 1000; this value is in effect following
-most characters, and any non-character box or math formula. But it is
-3000 after a period, exclamation mark, or question mark, it is 2000
-after a colon, 1500 after a semicolon, 1250 after a comma, and 0 after a
-right parenthesis or bracket, or closing double quote or single quote.
-Finally, it is 999 after a capital letter.

1000/f (for Computer Modern Roman 10 point these are 1.66666 and

-space following a word ending in a lowercase letter, inter-sentence
-spacing has a fixed extra space added and then the space can stretch 3
-times as much and shrink 1/3 as much.

- The rules for how TeX uses space factors are even more complex

-consequences. First, if a period or other punctuation is followed by a

-19.3.1 '\(SPACE)' and '\@'
---------------------------
+19.5.1 '\@'
+-----------
+
+Synopsis:
+
+ CAPITAL-LETTER\@.
-Here, '\(SPACE)' means a backslash followed by a space. These commands
-mark a punctuation character, typically a period, as either ending a
-sentence or as ending an abbreviation.
+ Treat a period as sentence-ending, where LaTeX would otherwise think
+it is part of an abbreviation. LaTeX thinks that a period ends an
+abbreviation if the period comes after a capital letter, and otherwise
+thinks the period ends the sentence. By default, in justifying a line
+LaTeX adjusts the space after a sentence-ending period (or a question
+mark, exclamation point, comma, or colon) more than it adjusts the space
+between words (*note \spacefactor::).
- By default, in justifying a line LaTeX adjusts the space after a
-sentence-ending period (or a question mark, exclamation point, comma, or
-colon) more than the space between words. *Note \spacefactor::. As
-described there, LaTeX assumes that the period ends a sentence unless it
-is preceded by a capital letter, in which case it takes that period for
-part of an abbreviation. Note that if a sentence-ending period is
-immediately followed by a right parenthesis or bracket, or right single
-or double quote, then the space effect of that period follows through
-that parenthesis or quote.
+ This example shows the two cases to remember.
- So: if you have a period ending an abbreviation whose last letter is
-not a capital letter, and that abbreviation is not the last word in the
-sentence, then follow that period with a backslash-space ('\ ') or a tie
-('~') or a '\@'. Examples are 'Nat.\ Acad.\ Science', and 'Mr.~Bean',
-and '(manure, etc.\@) for sale' (note that in the last the '\@' comes
-before the closing parenthesis).
+ The songs \textit{Red Guitar}, etc.\ are by Loudon Wainwright~III\@.
- In the opposite situation, if you have a capital letter followed by a
-period that does end the sentence, then put '\@' before the period. For
-example, 'book by the MAA\@.' will have correct inter-sentence spacing
-after the period.
+The second period ends the sentence, despite that it is preceded by a
+capital. We tell LaTeX that it ends the sentence by putting '\@' before
+it. The first period ends the abbreviation 'etc.' but not the sentence.
+The backslash-space, '\ ', produces a mid-sentence space.
- For another use of '\(SPACE)', *note \(SPACE) after control
-sequence::.
+ So: if you have a capital letter followed by a period that ends the
+sentence, then put '\@' before the period. This holds even if there is
+an intervening right parenthesis or bracket, or right single or double
+quote, because the spacing effect of that period carries through those
+characters. For example, this
+
+ Use the \textit{Instructional Practices Guide},
+ (a book by the MAA)\@.
+
+will have correct inter-sentence spacing after the period.
+
+ The '\@' command is only for a text mode. If you use it outside of a
+text mode then you get 'You can't use `\spacefactor' in vertical mode'
+(*note Modes::).
+
+ Comment: the converse case is a period ending an abbreviation whose
+last letter is not a capital letter, and that abbreviation is not the
+last word in the sentence. For that case follow the period with a
+backslash-space, ('\ '), or a tie, ('~'), or '\@'. Examples are 'Nat.\
+Acad.\ Science', and 'Mr.~Bean', and '(manure, etc.\@) for sale' (note
+in the last one that the '\@' comes before the closing parenthesis).

-19.4 '\ ' after control sequence
-================================
+19.6 Backslash-space, '\ '
+==========================
+
+This section refers to the command consisting of two characters, a
+backslash followed by a space. Synopsis:
-The '\ ' command is often used after control sequences to keep them from
-gobbling the space that follows, as in '\TeX\ is nice'. And, under
-normal circumstances, '\'<tab> and '\'<newline> are equivalent to '\ '.
-For another use of '\ ', see also *note \(SPACE) and \@::.
+ \
- Some people prefer to use '{}' for the same purpose, as in '\TeX{} is
-nice'. This has the advantage that you can always write it the same
-way, namely '\TeX{}', whether it is followed by a space or by a
-punctuation mark. Compare:
+ Produce a space. By default it produces white space of length
+3.33333pt plus 1.66666pt minus 1.11111pt.
- \TeX\ is a nice system. \TeX, a nice system.
+ A blank is not a space. When you type a blank between words, LaTeX
+produces white space. That's different from an explicit space. This
+illustrates.
- \TeX{} is a nice system. \TeX{}, a nice system.
+ \begin{tabular}{l}
+ Three blanks: in a row \\
+ Three spaces:\ \ \ in a row \\
+ \end{tabular}
- Some individual commands, notably those defined with the 'xspace',
-package do not follow the standard behavior.
+On the first line LaTeX collapses the three blanks to output one
+whitespace (it would be the same with a single blank or, for instance,
+with a blank and an tab and a blank, or a blank and a newline and a
+blank). But the second line asks for three spaces so the white area is
+wider. Thus, the backslash-space command will create some horizontal
+space. (But the best way to create horizontal space is with '\hspace';
+*Note \hspace::.)
+
+ The backslash-space command has two main uses. First, it is often
+used after control sequences to keep them from gobbling the space that
+follows, as in '\TeX\ is nice'. (But the approach of using curly
+parentheses, as in '\TeX{} is nice', has the advantage of still working
+if the next character is a period.)
+
+ The second common use is that it mark a period as ending an
+abbreviation instead of ending a sentence, as in 'So says Prof.\ Smith'
+(*note \@::).
+
+ Under normal circumstances, '\'<tab> and '\'<newline> are equivalent
+to backslash-space, '\ '.

-===============================
+19.7 '~'
+========
+
+Synopsis:
+
+ BEFORE~AFTER
+
+ The tie character, '~', produces a space between BEFORE and AFTER at
+which the line will not be broken. By default the white space has
+length 3.33333pt plus 1.66666pt minus 1.11111pt (*note Lengths::).
+
+ Here LaTeX will not break the line between the final two words.
+
+ Thanks to Prof.~Lerman.
+
+In addition, despite the period, LaTeX does not use the end-of-sentence
+spacing (*note \@::).
-'\thinspace' produces an unbreakable and unstretchable space that is 1/6
-of an em. This is the proper space to use between nested quotes, as in
-'".
+ Ties prevent the end of line separation of things where that could
+cause confusion. But they also reduce LaTeX's options when it breaks
+lines into paragraphs, so you can use too many. They are also matters
+of taste, sometimes alarmingly dogmatic taste, among readers.
+Nevertheless, here are some usage models, many of them from the TeXbook.
+
+ * Between an enumerator and its item, such as in references:
+ 'Chapter~12', or 'Theorem~\ref{th:Wilsons}', or
+ 'Figure~\ref{fig:KGraph}'. When cases are enumerated inline:
+ '(b)~Show that $f(x)$ is (1)~continuous, and (2)~bounded'.
+
+ * Between a number and its unit: '$745.7.8$~watts' (the 'siunitx'
+ package has a special facility for this) or '144~eggs'. This
+ includes between a month and a date: 'October~12' or '12~Oct'. In
+ general, in any expressions where numbers and abbreviations or
+ symbols are separated by a space: 'AD~565', or '2:50~pm', or
+ 'Boeing~747', or '268~Plains Road', or '\$$1.4$~billion'.
+
+ * When mathematical phrases are rendered in words: 'equals~$n$', or
+ 'less than~$\epsilon$', or 'given~$X$', or 'modulo~$p^e$ for all
+ large~$n$' (but compare 'is~$15$' with 'is $15$~times the height').
+ Between mathematical symbols in apposition with nouns:
+ 'dimension~$d$' or 'function~$f(x)$' (but compare 'with length
+ $l$~or more'). When a symbol is a tightly bound object of a
+ preposition: 'of~$x$', or 'from $0$ to~$1$', or 'in common
+ with~$m$'.

+ \ldots,~$n$'.
+
+ * Between a person's forenames and between multiple surnames:
+ 'Donald~E. Knuth', or 'Luis~I. Trabb~Pardo', or 'Charles~XII' (but
+ you must give TeX places to break the line so you may do 'Charles

-19.6 '\/': Insert italic correction
+19.8 '\thinspace' & '\negthinspace'
===================================
-The '\/' command produces an "italic correction". This is a small space
-defined by the font designer for a given character, to avoid the
-character colliding with whatever follows. The italic f character
-typically has a large italic correction value.
+Synopsis, one of:

+ \thinspace
+ \negthinspace
+
+ Produce an unbreakable and unstretchable space of 1/6em and -1/6em.
+These are the text mode equivalents of '\,' and '\!' (*note Spacing in
+math mode/\thinspace::). You can use '\,' as a synonym for '\thinspace'
+in text mode.
+
+ The '\negthinspace' command is used in text mode mostly for fiddling
+with spaces. One common use of '\thinspace' is as the space between
+nested quotes.
+
+ Killick replied, ``I heard the Captain say, `Ahoy there.'\thinspace''
+
+Another use is that some style guides call for a '\thinspace' between an
+ellipsis and a sentence ending period (other style guides, though, think
+the three dots are quite enough already). Still another use is between
+initials, as in 'D.\thinspace E.\ Knuth'.
- If the following character is a period or comma, it's not necessary
-to insert an italic correction, since those punctuation symbols have a
-very small height. However, with semicolons or colons, as well as
-normal letters, it can help. Compare f: f; (in the TeX output, the 'f's
-are nicely separated) with f: f;.

+=========
+
+Synopsis:
+
+ BEFORE-CHARACTER\/AFTER-CHARACTER
+
+ Insert an "italic correction", a small space defined by the font
+designer for each character, to avoid the character colliding with
+whatever follows. When you use '\/', LaTeX takes the correction from
+the font metric file, scales it by any scaling that has been applied to
+the font, and then inserts that much horizontal space.
- When changing fonts with commands such as '\textit{italic text}' or
-'{\itshape italic text}', LaTeX will automatically insert an italic
-correction if appropriate (*note Font styles::).
+ Here, were it not for the '\/', the BEFORE-CHARACTER italic f would
+hit the AFTER-CHARACTER roman H
- Despite the name, roman characters can also have an italic
-correction. Compare pdfTeX (in the TeX output, there is a small space
-after the 'f') with pdfTeX.
+ \newcommand{\companylogo}{{\it f}\/H}
+
+because the italic letter leans far to the right.
+
+ If AFTER-CHARACTER is a period or comma then don't insert an italic
+correction since those punctuation symbols have a very small height.
+However, with semicolons or colons as well as with normal letters, the
+italic correction can help.
+
+ When you use commands such as '\textit' or '\itshape' to change
+fonts, LaTeX will automatically insert any needed italic correction
+(*note Font styles::).
+
+ Roman characters can also have an italic correction. An example is
+in the name 'pdf\/\TeX'.
There is no concept of italic correction in math mode; spacing is
done in a different way.

-'\vfill' ends the current paragraph, whereas '\vspace{\fill}' adds the
-infinite vertical space below its line irrespective of the paragraph
-structure. In both cases that space will disappear at a page boundary;

+ \strut
- In this example the page is filled, so the top and bottom lines
-contain the text 'Lost Dog!' and the third 'Lost Dog!' is exactly
-halfway between them.
+ Ensure that the current line has height at least '0.7\baselineskip'
+and depth at least '0.3\baselineskip'. Essentially, LaTeX inserts into
+the line a rectangle having zero width,
+'\rule[-0.3\baselineskip]{0pt}{\baselineskip}' (*note \rule::). The
+'\baselineskip' changes with the current font and fontsize.
- \begin{document}
- Lost Dog!

- \end{document}
+ In this example the '\strut' keeps the box inside the frame from
+having zero height.
+
+ \setlength{\fboxsep}{0pt}\framebox[2in]{\strut}
+
+ This example has four lists. In the first there is a much bigger gap
+between items 2 and 3 than there is between items 1 and 2. The second
+list fixes that with a '\strut' at the end of its first item's second
+line.
+
+ \setlength{\fboxsep}{0pt}
+ \noindent\begin{minipage}[t]{0.2\linewidth}
+ \begin{enumerate}
+ \item \parbox[t]{15pt}{test \\ test}
+ \item test
+ \item test
+ \end{enumerate}
+ \end{minipage}%
+ \begin{minipage}[t]{0.2\linewidth}

+ \item \fbox{\parbox[t]{15pt}{test \\ test\strut}}
+ \item \fbox{test}
+ \item \fbox{test}
+ \end{enumerate}
+ \end{minipage}%
+
+The final two lists use 'fbox' to show what's happening. The third
+list's '\parbox' goes only to the bottom of its second 'test', which
+happens not have any characters that descend below the baseline. The
+fourth list adds the strut that gives the needed extra below-baseline
+space.
+
+ The '\strut' command is often useful in graphics, such as in 'TikZ'
+or 'Asymptote'. For instance, you may have a command such as
+'\graphnode{NODE-NAME}' that fits a circle around NODE-NAME. However,
+unless you are careful the NODE-NAME's 'x' and 'y' will produce
+different-diameter circles because the characters are different sizes.
+A careful '\graphnode' might insert a '\strut', then NODE-NAME, and then
+draw the circle.
+
+ The general approach of using a zero width '\rule' is useful in many
+circumstances. In this table, the zero-width rule keeps the top of the
+first integral from hitting the '\hline'. Similarly, the second rule
+keeps the second integral from hitting the first.
+
+ \begin{tabular}{rl}
+ \textsc{Integral} &\textsc{Value} \\
+ \hline
+ $\int_0^x t\, dt$ &$x^2/2$ \rule{0em}{2.5ex} \\
+ $\int_0^x t^2\, dt$ &$x^3/3$ \rule{0em}{2.5ex}
+ \end{tabular}
+
+(Although the line-ending double backslash command has an available
+optional argument to put in more vertical room, that won't work here.
+Changing the first double backslash to something like '\\[2.5ex]' will
+put the room between the header line and the '\hline', and the integral
+would still hit the line.)

+ Add a vertical space of VERT-LENGTH. However, if there are two or

+needed to make the natural length equal to the maximum of the
+VERT-LENGTH's in that sequence. This command is fragile (*note
+\protect::). The VERT-LENGTH is a rubber length (*note Lengths::).
- The '\fbox' and '\framebox' commands are like '\mbox', except that
-they put a frame around the outside of the box being created.
+ This example illustrates. The 'picture' draws a scale. In a
+standard LaTeX article the length '\baselineskip' is 12pt. The two
+rules here are 22pt apart: the sum of the '\baselineskip' and the 10pt
+from the first 'addvspace'.

+ \par\addvspace{10pt}% \addvspace{20pt}%
+ \par\noindent\rule{0.25\linewidth}{0.1pt}%
+ \end{document}
- In addition, the '\framebox' command allows for explicit
-specification of the box width with the optional WIDTH argument (a
-dimension), and positioning with the optional POSITION argument.
+Now uncomment the second '\addvspace'. It does not make the gap 20pt
+longer; instead the gap is the sum of '\baselineskip' and 20pt. So
+'\addvspace' in a sense does the opposite of its name -- it makes sure
+that multiple vertical spaces do not accumulate, but instead that only
+the largest one is used.
- Both commands produce a rule of thickness '\fboxrule' (default
-'0.4pt'), and leave a space of '\fboxsep' (default '3pt') between the
-rule and the contents of the box.
+ LaTeX uses this command to adjust the vertical space above or below
+an environment that starts a new paragraph. For instance, a 'theorem'
+environment begins and ends with '\addvspace' so that two consecutive
+'theorem''s are separated by one vertical space, not two.

-Synopsis:
+Synopsis, one of:
+ \mbox{TEXT}
+ \makebox{TEXT}
+ \makebox[WIDTH]{TEXT}
\makebox[WIDTH][POSITION]{TEXT}
- The '\makebox' command creates a box just wide enough to contain the
-TEXT specified. The width of the box can be overridden by the optional
-WIDTH argument. The position of the text within the box is determined
-by the optional POSITION argument, which may take the following values:
+ Create a box, a container for material. The TEXT is is typeset in LR
+mode (*note Modes::) so it is not broken into lines. The '\mbox'
+command is robust, while '\makebox' is fragile (*note \protect::).
+
+ Because 'text' is not broken into lines, you can use '\mbox' to
+prevent hyphenation. In this example, LaTeX will not hyphenate the
+table name, 'T-4'.
+
+ See Table~\mbox{T-4}
+
+ The first two command versions, '\mbox' and '\makebox', are roughly
+equivalent. They create a box just wide enough to contain the TEXT.
+(They are like plain TeX's '\hbox'.)
+
+ In the third version the optional argument WIDTH specifies the width
+of the box. Note that the space occupied by the text need not equal the
+width of the box. For one thing, TEXT can be too small; this creates a
+full-line box
+
+ \makebox[\linewidth]{Chapter Exam}
+
+with 'Chapter Exam' centered. But TEXT can also be too wide for WIDTH.
+See the example below of zero-width boxes.
+
+ In the WIDTH argument you can use the following lengths that refer to
+the dimension of the box that LaTeX gets on typesetting TEXT: '\depth',
+'\height', '\width', '\totalheight' (this is the box's height plus its
+depth). For example, to make a box with the text stretched to double
+the natural size you can say this.
+
+ \makebox[2\width]{Get a stretcher}
+
+ For the fourth command version the optional argument POSITION gives
+position of the text within the box. It may take the following values:
'c'
- Centered (default).
+ The TEXT is centered (default).
+
'l'
- Flush left.
+ The TEXT is flush left.
+
'r'
Flush right.
+
's'
- Stretch (justify) across entire WIDTH; TEXT must contain
- stretchable space for this to work.
+ Stretch the interword space in TEXT across the entire WIDTH. The
+ TEXT must contain stretchable space for this to work. For
+ instance, this could head a press release:
+ '\noindent\makebox[\textwidth][s]{\large\hfil IMMEDIATE\hfil
+ RELEASE\hfil}'
+
+ A common use of '\makebox' is to make zero-width text boxes. This
+puts the value of the quiz questions to the left of those questions.
+
+ \newcommand{\pts}[1]{\makebox[0em][r]{#1 points\hspace*{1em}}}
+ \pts{10}What is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?
+
+ \pts{90}An African or European swallow?
+
+
+ The right edge of the output '10 points ' (note the ending space)
+will be just before the 'What' (note the space after 'points'). You can
+use '\makebox' similarly when making graphics, such as in 'TikZ' or
+'Asymptote', where you put the edge of the text at a known location,
+regardless of the length of that text.
+
+ For boxes with frames see *note \fbox & \framebox::. For colors
+see *note Colored boxes::.
+
+ There is a related version of '\makebox' that is used within the
+'picture' environment, where the length is given in terms of
+'\unitlength' (*note \makebox (picture)::).
+
+ If you put a double-backslash into TEXT then LaTeX will not give you
+a new line; for instance '\makebox{abc def \\ ghi}' outputs 'abc defghi'
+while '\makebox{abc def \par ghi}' outputs 'abc def ghi', but neither go
+to a second line. To get multiple lines see *note \parbox:: and *note

+ Create a box with an enclosing frame, four lines surrounding the

+
+ \fbox{Warning! No work shown, no credit given.}
+
+LaTeX puts the text into a box that cannot be split or hyphenated.
+Around that box, separated from it by a small gap, are four lines making
+a frame.
+
+ The first two command invocations, '\fbox{...}' and '\framebox{...}',
+are roughly the same. As to the third and fourth invocations, the
+optional arguments allow you to specify the box width as WIDTH and the
+position of the text inside that box as POSITION. *Note \mbox &

+empty box that is 1/4in wide.
+
+ \setlength{\fboxsep}{0pt}\framebox[0.25in]{\strut}}

+
+ These parameters determine the frame layout.

+'\fboxrule'
+ The thickness of the lines around the enclosed box. The default is
+ 0.2pt. Change it with a command such as
+ '\setlength{\fboxrule}{0.8pt}' (*note \setlength::).
+
+'\fboxsep'
+ The distance from the frame to the enclosed box. The default is
+ 3pt. Change it with a command such as '\setlength{\fboxsep}{0pt}'

+ Produce a box of text that is WIDTH wide. Use this command to make a
+box of small pieces of text, of a single paragraph. This command is
+fragile (*note \protect::).
- '\parbox' has two mandatory arguments:
+ \begin{picture}(0,0)
+ ...
+ \put(1,2){\parbox{1.75in}{\raggedright Because the graph is a line on
+ this semilog paper, the relationship is
+ exponential.}}
+ \end{picture}
-WIDTH
- the width of the parbox;
-TEXT
- the text that goes inside the parbox.
+ The CONTENTS are processed in a text mode (*note Modes::) so LaTeX
+will break lines to make a paragraph. But it won't make multiple
+paragraphs; for that, use a 'minipage' environment (*note minipage::).
- By default LaTeX will position vertically a parbox so its center
-lines up with the center of the surrounding text line. When the
-optional POSITION argument is present and equal either to 't' or 'b',
-this allows you respectively to align either the top or bottom line in
-the parbox with the baseline of the surrounding text. You may also
-specify 'm' for POSITION to get the default behaviour.
+ The options for '\parbox' (except for CONTENTS) are the same as those
+for 'minipage'. For convenience a summary of the options is here but
+see *note minipage:: for a complete description.
- The optional HEIGHT argument overrides the natural height of the box.
+ There are two required arguments. The WIDTH is a rigid length (*note
+Lengths::). It sets the width of the box into which LaTeX typesets
+CONTENTS. The CONTENTS is the text that is placed in that box. It
+should not have any paragraph-making components.
- The INNER-POS argument controls the placement of the text inside the
-box, as follows; if it is not specified, POSITION is used.
+ There are three optional arguments, POSITION, HEIGHT, and INNER-POS.
+The POSITION gives the vertical alignment of the 'parbox' with respect
+to the surrounding material. The possible values are 'c' or 'm' to make
+the vertical center of the 'parbox' lines up with the center of the
+adjacent line (this is the default), or 't' to match the top line of the
+'parbox' with the baseline of the surrounding material, or 'b' to match
+the bottom line.
-'t'
- text is placed at the top of the box.
-'c'
- text is centered in the box.
-'b'
- text is placed at the bottom of the box.
-'s'
- stretch vertically; the text must contain vertically stretchable
- space for this to work.
+ The optional argument HEIGHT overrides the natural height of the box.
+
+ The optional argument INNER-POS controls the placement of CONTENT
+inside the 'parbox'. Its default is the value of POSITION. Its
+possible values are: 't' to put the CONTENT at the top of the box, 'c'
+to put it in the vertical center, 'b' to put it at the bottom of the
+box, and 's' to stretch it out vertically (for this, the text must
+contain vertically stretchable space).

+
+ Typeset TEXT just as with '\makebox' (*note \mbox & \makebox::)
+except that LaTeX does not output it but instead saves it in a storage
+bin named BOX-CMD. The bin name BOX-CMD begins with a backslash, '\'.
+You must have previously allocated the bin BOX-CMD with '\newsavebox'
+(*note \newsavebox::).The '\sbox' command is robust while '\savebox' is
+fragile (*note \protect::).
+
+ This creates and uses a bin.
+
+ \newsavebox{\fullname}
+ \sbox{\fullname}{John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt}
+ ...
+ \usebox{\fullname}! His name is my name, too!
+ Whenever we go out, the people always shout!
+ There goes \\usebox{\fullname}! Ya da da da da da da.
+
+One advantage of using and reusing a bin over a '\newcommand' is
+efficiency, that LaTeX need not repeatedly retypeset the contents. See
+the example below.
+
+ The first two command invocations, '\sbox{BOX-CMD}{TEXT}' and
+'\savebox{BOX-CMD}{TEXT}', are roughly equivalent. As to the third and
+fourth, the optional arguments allow you to specify the box width as
+WIDTH, and the position of the text inside that box as POSITION. *Note
+\mbox & \makebox:: for the full description.
+
+ In the '\sbox' and '\savebox' commands the TEXT is typeset in LR mode
+so it does not have line breaks (*note Modes::). If you use these then
+LaTeX doesn't give you an error but it ignores what you want: if you
+enter '\sbox{\newbin}{test \\ test}' and '\usebox{\newbin}' then you get
+'testtest', while if you enter '\sbox{\newbin}{test \par test}' and
+'\usebox{\newbin}' then you get 'test test', but no error or warning.
+To fix this use a '\parbox' or 'minipage' as here.

+ \begin{minipage}{\linewidth}
+ \begin{enumerate}
+ \item First item
+ \item Second item
+ \end{enumerate}
+ \end{minipage}}
+ ...

+ When you '\include{filename}', inside 'filename.tex' the material
+after '\endinput' will not be included. This command is optional; if
+'filename.tex' has no '\endinput' then LaTeX will read all of the file.
- Given an '\includeonly' command, the '\include' actions are only run
-if FILE is listed as an argument to '\includeonly'. See *note
-\includeonly::.

+ This can be useful for putting documentation or comments at the end

+errors is to put '\endinput' halfway through the included file and see
+if the error disappears. Now, knowing which half contains the error,
+moving '\endinput' to halfway through that area further narrows down the
+location. This process rapidly finds the offending line.
+
+ After reading '\endinput', LaTeX continues to read to the end of the
+line, so something can follow this command and be read nonetheless.
+This allows you, for instance, to close an '\if...' with a '\fi'.

+ }
+ ...
+ \include{FILENAME} % in document body
+
+ Bring material from the external file 'FILENAME.tex' into a LaTeX
+document.
+
+ The '\include' command does three things: it executes '\clearpage'
+(*note \clearpage & \cleardoublepage::), then it inputs the material
+from 'FILENAME.tex' into the document, and then it does another
+'\clearpage'. This command can only appear in the document body. The
+'\includeonly' command controls which files will be read by LaTeX under
+subsequent '\include' commands. Its list of filenames is
+comma-separated, and it can only appear in the preamble.
+
+ This example root document, 'constitution.tex', brings in three
+files, 'preamble.tex', 'articles.tex', and 'amendments.tex'.
+
+ \documentclass{book}

+information such as page numbers and cross-references (*note Cross
+references::). If you now comment out '\includeonly''s lines with
+'preamble' and 'amendments' and run LaTeX again then the resulting
+document shows only the material from 'articles.tex', not the material
+from 'preamble.tex' or 'amendments.tex'. Nonetheless, all of the
+auxiliary information from the omitted files is still there, including
+the starting page number of the chapter.
+
+ If the document preamble does not have '\includeonly' then LaTeX will
+include all the files you call for with '\include' commands.
+
+ The '\include' command makes a new page. To avoid that, see *note
+\input:: (which, however, does not retain the auxiliary information).
+
+ *Note Larger book template:: for another example using '\include' and
+'\includeonly'. That example also uses '\input' for some material that
+will not necessarily start on a new page.
+
+ File names can involve paths.
- The '\includeonly' command controls which files will be read by
-subsequent '\include' commands. The list of filenames is
-comma-separated. Each element FILE1, FILE2, ... must exactly match a
-filename specified in a '\include' command for the selection to be
-effective.

+ \includeonly{
+ chapters/chap1,
+ }
+ \begin{document}
+ \include{chapters/chap1}
+ \end{document}
+
+ To make your document portable across distributions and platforms you
+should avoid spaces in the file names. The tradition is to instead use
+dashes or underscores. Nevertheless, for the name 'amo amas amat', this
+works under TeX Live on GNU/Linux:
+
+ \documentclass{book}
+ \includeonly{
+ "amo\space amas\space amat"
+ }
+ \begin{document}
+ \include{"amo\space amas\space amat"}

+
+ \documentclass{book}
+ \includeonly{
+ {"amo amas amat"}
+ }
+ \begin{document}
+ \include{{"amo amas amat"}}
+ \end{document}
- This command can only appear in the preamble.
+ You cannot use '\include' inside a file that is being included or you
+get 'LaTeX Error: \include cannot be nested.' The '\include' command
+cannot appear in the document preamble; you will get 'LaTeX Error:
+Missing \begin{document}'.
+
+ If a file that you '\include' does not exist, for instance if you
+'\include{athiesm}' but you meant '\include{atheism}', then LaTeX does
+not give you an error but will warn you 'No file athiesm.tex.' (It will
+also create 'athiesm.aux'.)
+
+ If you '\include' the root file in itself then you first get 'LaTeX
+Error: Can be used only in preamble.' Later runs get 'TeX capacity
+exceeded, sorry [text input levels=15]'. To fix this, you must remove
+the inclusion '\include{root}' but also delete the file 'ROOT.aux' and
+rerun LaTeX.

=============
Synopsis:
- \input{FILE}
+ \input{FILENAME}
+
+ LaTeX processes the file as if its contents were inserted in the
+current file. For a more sophisticated inclusion mechanism see *note
+\include & \includeonly::.
+
+ If FILENAME does not end in '.tex' then LaTeX first tries the
+filename with that extension; this is the usual case. If FILENAME ends
+with '.tex' then LaTeX looks for the filename as it is.
+
+ For example, this
+
+ \input{macros}
- The '\input' command causes the specified FILE to be read and
-processed, as if its contents had been inserted in the current file at
-that point.
+will cause LaTeX to first look for 'macros.tex'. If it finds that file
+then it processes its contents as thought they had been copy-pasted in.
+If there is no file of the name 'macros.tex' then LaTeX tries the name
+'macros', without an extension. (This may vary by distribution.)
- If FILE does not end in '.tex' (e.g., 'foo' or 'foo.bar'), it is
-first tried with that extension ('foo.tex' or 'foo.bar.tex'). If that
-is not found, the original FILE is tried ('foo' or 'foo.bar').
+ To make your document portable across distributions and platforms you
+should avoid spaces in the file names. The tradition is to instead use
+dashes or underscores. Nevertheless, for the name 'amo amas amat', this
+works under TeX Live on GNU/Linux:

-=======================
+25.1 Table of contents etc.
+===========================
-A table of contents is produced with the '\tableofcontents' command.
-You put the command right where you want the table of contents to go;
-LaTeX does the rest for you. A previous run must have generated a
-'.toc' file.
+Synopsis, one of:
- The '\tableofcontents' command produces a heading, but it does not
-automatically start a new page. If you want a new page after the table
-of contents, write a '\newpage' command after the '\tableofcontents'
-command.
+ \tableofcontents
+ \listoffigures
+ \listoftables
- The analogous commands '\listoffigures' and '\listoftables' produce a
-list of figures and a list of tables (from '.lof' and '.lot' files),
-respectively. Everything works exactly the same as for the table of
-contents.
+ Produce a table of contents, or list of figures, or list of tables.
+Put the command in the input file where you want the table or list to
+go. You do not type the entries; for example, typically the table of
+contents entries are automatically generated from the sectioning
+commands '\chapter', etc.
+
+ This example illustrates the first command, '\tableofcontents'.
+LaTeX will produce a table of contents on the book's first page.
+
+ \documentclass{book}
+ % \setcounter{tocdepth}{1}
+ \begin{document}
+ \tableofcontents\newpage
+ ...
+ \chapter{...}
+ ...
+ \section{...}
+ ...
+ \subsection{...}
+ ...
+ \end{document}
+
+Uncommenting the second line would cause that table to contain chapter
+and section listings but not subsection listings, because the '\section'
+command has level 1. *Note Sectioning:: for level numbers of the
+sectioning units. For more on the 'tocdepth' *note
+Sectioning/tocdepth::.
+
+ Another example of the use of '\tableofcontents' is in *note Larger
+book template::.
+
+ If you want a page break after the table of contents, write a
+'\newpage' command after the '\tableofcontents' command, as above.
+
+ To make the table of contents LaTeX stores the information in an
+auxiliary file named 'ROOT-FILE.toc' (*note Splitting the input::). For
+example, this LaTeX file 'test.tex'
+
+ \documentclass{article}
+ \begin{document}
+ \tableofcontents\newpage
+ \section{First section}
+ \subsection{First subsection}
+ ...
+
+writes the following line to 'test.toc'.
+
+ \contentsline {section}{\numberline {1}First section}{2}
+ \contentsline {subsection}{\numberline {1.1}First subsection}{2}
+
+The 'section' or 'subsection' is the sectioning unit. The hook
+'\numberline' lets you to change how the information appears in the
+table of contents. Of its two arguments, '1' or '1.1' is the sectioning
+unit number and 'First section' or 'First subsection' is the title.
+Finally, '2' is the page number on which the sectioning units start.
+
+ One consequence of this auxiliary file storage strategy is that to
+get the contents page correct you must run LaTeX twice, once to store
+the information and once to get it. In particular, the first time that
+you run LaTeX on a new document, the table of contents page will be
+empty except for its 'Contents' header. Just run it again.
- The command '\nofiles' overrides these commands, and _prevents_ any
-of these lists from being generated.
+ The commands '\listoffigures' and '\listoftables' produce a list of
+figures and a list of tables. They work the same way as the contents
+commands; for instance, these work with information stored in '.lof' and
+'.lot' files.
+
+ To change the header for the table of contents page do something like
+the first line here.
+
+ \renewcommand{\contentsname}{Table of contents}
+ \renewcommand{\listfigurename}{Plots}
+ \renewcommand{\listtablename}{Tables}
+
+Similarly, the other two lines will do the other two.
+Internationalization packages such as 'babel' or 'polyglossia' will
+change the headers depending on the chosen base language.
+
+ CTAN has many packages for the table of contents and lists of figures
+and tables. One convenient one for adjusting some aspects of the
+default, such as spacing, is 'tocloft'. And, 'tocbibbind' will
+automatically add the bibliography, index, etc. to the table of
+contents.

+
+It will appear at the same indentation level as the sections, will be in
+boldface, and will be assigned the page number associated with the point
+where it appears in the input file.
+
+ The '\addcontentsline' command writes information to the file
+'ROOT-NAME.EXT'. It writes that information as the text of the command
+'\contentsline{UNIT}{TEXT}{NUM}', where 'NUM' is the current value of
+counter 'UNIT'. The most common case is the table of contents and there
+NUM is the page number of the first page of UNIT.
+
+ This command is invoked by the sectioning commands '\chapter', etc.,
+and also by '\caption' inside a float environment. But it is also used
+by authors. For example, in a book to have the preface unnumbered, you
+may use the starred '\chapter*'. But that does not put in table of
+contents information, so you can enter it manually, as here.
+
+ \chapter*{Preface}
+ \addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{\protect\numberline{}Preface}
+
+In the '.toc' file LaTeX will put the line '\contentsline
+{chapter}{\numberline {}Preface}{3}'; note the page number '3'.
+
+ All of the arguments for '\addcontentsline' are required.
EXT
- The filename extension of the file on which information is to be
- written, typically one of: 'toc' (table of contents), 'lof' (list
- of figures), or 'lot' (list of tables).
+ Typically one of the strings 'toc' for the table of contents, 'lof'
+ for the list of figures, or 'lot' for the list of tables. The
+ filename extension of the information file.
UNIT
- The name of the sectional unit being added, typically one of the
- following, matching the value of the EXT argument:
+ A string that depends on the value of the EXT argument:
'toc'
- The name of the sectional unit: 'part', 'chapter', 'section',

+ For the table of contents, this is the name of a sectional
+ unit: 'part', 'chapter', 'section', 'subsection', etc.
+
'lof'
For the list of figures: 'figure'.
+
'lot'
For the list of tables: 'table'.
TEXT
- The text of the entry.
+ The text of the entry. You must '\protect' any commands that are

- What is written to the '.EXT' file is the command

+Synopsis:
+
+ \addtocontents{EXT}{TEXT}
+
+ Add TEXT, which may be text or formatting commands, directly to the

+25.2 Indexes
============
-The command '\makeindex' enables creating indexes. Put this in the
-preamble.
+This document has an index.
- The command '\index{TEXT}' writes an index entry for TEXT to an
-auxiliary file named with the '.idx' extension.
+ \documentclass{article}
+ \usepackage{makeidx} \makeindex
+ ...
+ \begin{document}
+ ...
+ Recall Wilson's Theorem: \index{Wilson's Theorem}
+ a number \( n>1 \) is prime if and only if the factorial of \( n-1 \)
+ is congruent to \( -1 \) modulo~\( n \).
+ ...
+ \printindex
+ ...
- Specifically, what gets written is the command
-'\indexentry{TEXT}{PAGENO}', where PAGENO is the current '\thepage'
-value.
+The '\usepackage{makeidx}' and '\makeindex' in the preamble bring in the
+relevant commands.
+
+ Producing an index is a three stage process. First, in the document
+body you declare index entries with the '\index' command (*note
+\index::). When you run LaTeX, the '\index' writes its information to
+an auxiliary file 'ROOT-NAME.idx'. Next, to alphabetize and to do other
+manipulations you run an external command, typically 'makeindex' or
+'xindy' (*note makeindex::). These output a file 'ROOT-NAME.ind'.
+Finally, you bring the information back into your document and typeset
+it with the '\printindex' command (*note \printindex::).
+
+ There are many packages that apply to indexing commands. The
+'showidx' package causes each index entries to be shown in the margin on
+the page where the entry appears. This can help in preparing the index.
+The 'multind' package supports multiple indexes. See also the TeX FAQ
+entry on this topic,
+<http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=multind>.
- To generate a index entry for 'bar' that says 'See foo', use a
-vertical bar: '\index{bar|see{foo}}'. Use 'seealso' instead of 'see' to
-make a 'See also' entry.
+* Menu:
- The text 'See' is defined by the macro '\seename', and 'See also' by
-the macro '\alsoname'. These can be redefined for other languages.
+* \index:: Declare an index entry.
+* makeindex:: Alphabetize index entries.
+* \printindex:: Put the index here.
- The generated '.idx' file is then sorted with an external command,
-usually either 'makeindex' (<http://mirror.ctan.org/indexing/makeindex>)
-or (the multi-lingual) 'xindy' (<http://xindy.sourceforge.net>). This
-results in a '.ind' file, which can then be read to typeset the index.
+
+File: latex2e.info, Node: \index, Next: makeindex, Up: Indexes
- The index is usually generated with the '\printindex' command. This
-is defined in the 'makeidx' package, so '\usepackage{makeidx}' needs to
-be in the preamble.
+25.2.1 '\index'
+---------------
- The rubber length '\indexspace' is inserted before each new letter in
-the printed index; its default value is '10pt plus5pt minus3pt'.
+Synopsis:
- The 'showidx' package causes each index entries to be shown in the
-margin on the page where the entry appears. This can help in preparing
-the index.
+ \index{INDEX-ENTRY-STRING}
- The 'multind' package supports multiple indexes. See also the TeX
-FAQ entry on this topic,
-<http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=multind>.
+ Declare an entry in the index. This command is fragile (*note
+\protect::).
+
+ For example, as described in *note Indexes::, one way to get an index
+from what's below is to compile the document with 'pdflatex test', then
+process the index entries with 'makeindex test', and then compile again
+with 'pdflatex test'.
+
+ W~Ackermann (1896--1962).\index{Ackermann}
+ ...
+ Ackermann function\index{Ackermann!function}
+ ...
+ rate of growth\index{Ackermann!function!growth rate}
+
+All three index entries will get a page number, such as 'Ackermann, 22'.
+LaTeX will format the second as a subitem of the first, on the line
+below it and indented, and the third as a subitem of the second. Three
+levels deep is as far as you can nest subentries. (If you add
+'\index{Ackermann!function!growth rate!comparison}' then 'makeindex'
+says 'Scanning input file test.idx....done (4 entries accepted, 1
+rejected)' and nothing appears in the index).
+
+ If you enter a second '\index' with the same INDEX-ENTRY-STRING then
+you will get a single index entry with two page numbers (unless they
+happen to fall on the same page). Thus, adding 'as for
+Ackermann.\index{Ackermann}' later in the same document as above will
+give an index entry like 'Ackermann, 22, 151'. Also, you can enter the
+index entries in any order, so for instance '\index{Ackermann!function}'
+could come before '\index{Ackermann}'.
+
+ Get a page range in the output, like 'Hilbert, 23--27', as here.
+
+ W~Ackermann (1896--1962).\index{Ackermann}
+ ...
+ D~Hilbert (1862--1943)\index{Ackermann!Hilbert\(}
+ ...
+ disapproved of his marriage.\index{Ackermann!Hilbert\)}
+
+If the beginning and ending of the page range are equal then the system
+just gives a single page entry, not a range.
+
+ If you index subentries but not a main entry, as with
+'\index{Jones!program}' and '\index{Jones!results}', then the output is
+the item 'Jones' with no comma or page number, followed by two subitems,
+like 'program, 50' and 'results, 51'.
+
+ Generate a index entry that says 'See' by using a vertical bar
+character: '\index{Ackermann!function|see{P\'eter's function}}'. You
+can instead get 'See also' with 'seealso'. (The text 'See' is defined
+by '\seename', and 'See also' by '\alsoname'. You can redefine these
+either by using an internationalization package such as 'babel' or
+'polyglossia', or directly as with '\renewcommand{\alsoname}[1]{Also see
+#1}'.)
+
+ The 'See' feature is part of a more general functionality. After the
+vertical bar you can put the name of a one-input command, as in
+'\index{group|textit}' (note the missing backslash on the '\textit'
+command) and the system will apply that command to the page number, here
+giving something like '\textit{7}'. You can define your own one-input
+commands, such as '\newcommand{\definedpage}[1]{{\color{blue}#1}}' and
+then '\index{Ackermann!function|definedpage}' will give a blue page
+number (*note Color::). Another, less practical, example is this,
+
+ \newcommand\indexownpage[1]{#1, \thepage}
+ ... Epimenides.\index{self-reference|indexownpage}
+
+which creates an entry citing the page number of its own index listing.
+
+ The two functions just described combine, as here
+
+ \index{Ackermann!function|(definedpage}
+ ...
+ \index{Ackermann!function|)}
+
+which outputs an index entry like 'function, 23--27' where the page
+number range is in blue.
+
+ Consider an index entry such as 'U+03B1-ring'. Entering it as
+'$\alpha$-ring' will cause it to be alphabetized according to the dollar
+sign. You can instead enter it using an at-sign, as
+'\index{alpha-ring@$\alpha$-ring}'. If you specify an entry with an
+at-sign separating two strings, 'POS@TEXT', then POS gives the
+alphabetical position of the entry while TEXT produces the text of the
+entry. Another example is that '\index{Saint Michael's College@SMC}'
+produces an index entry 'SMC' alphabetized into a different location
+than its spelling would naturally give it.
+
+ To put a '!', or '@', or '|' character in an index entry, preceding
+it with a double quote, '"'. (The double quote gets deleted before
+alphabetization.)
+
+ A number of packages on CTAN have additional functionality beyond
+that provided by 'makeidx'. One is 'index', which allows for multiple
+indices and contains a command '\index*{INDEX-ENTRY-STRING}' that prints
+the INDEX-ENTRY-STRING as well as indexing it.
+
+ The '\index' command writes the indexing information to the file
+'ROOT-NAME.idx' file. Specifically, it writes text of the command
+'\indexentry{INDEX-ENTRY-STRING}{PAGE-NUM}', where where PAGE-NUM is the
+value of the '\thepage' counter. On occasion, when the '\printindex'
+command is confused, you have to delete this file to start with a fresh
+slate.
+
+ If you omit the closing brace of an '\index' command then you get a
+message like this.

+ Runaway argument? {Ackermann!function

+file, the 'FILENAME.ind' file that is input by '\printindex' (*note
+\printindex::).
+
+ The first form of the command suffices for many uses. The second
+allows you to format the index by using an "index style file", a '.isty'
+file. The third form is the most general; see the full documentation on
+CTAN.
+
+ This is a simple '.isty' file.
+
+ % book.isty

+
+ The description here covers only some of the index formatting
+possibilities in STYLE-FILE. For a full list see the documentation on
+CTAN.
+
+ A style file consists of a list of pairs: SPECIFIER and ATTRIBUTE.
+These can appear in the file in any order. All of the ATTRIBUTES are
+strings, except where noted. Strings are surrounded with double quotes,
+'"', and the maximum length of a string is 144 characters. The '\n' is
+for a newline and '\t' is for a tab. Backslashes are escaped with
+another backslash, '\\'. If a line begins with a percent sign, '%',
+then it is a comment.
+
+'preamble'
+ Preamble of the output file. Defines the context in which the
+ index is formatted. Default: '"\\begin{theindex}\n"'.
+
+'postamble'
+ Postamble of the output file. Default: '"\n\n\\end{theindex}\n"'.
+
+'group_skip'
+ Traditionally index items are broken into groups, typically a group
+ for entries starting with 'a', etc. This specifier gives what is
+ inserted when a new group begins. Default: '"\n\n \\indexspace\n"'
+ ('\indexspace' is a rubber length with default value '10pt plus5pt
+ minus3pt').

+
+'page_precedence'
+ A document may have pages numbered in different ways. For example,
+ a book may have front matter pages numbered in lowercase roman

+
+ There are a number of other programs that do the job 'makeindex'
+does. One is 'xindy', which does internationalization and can process
+indexes for documents marked up using LaTeX and a number of other
+languages. It is is highly configurable, both in markup terms and in

+ for user intervention. In "batch mode" it prints nothing on the
+ terminal, errors are scrolled as if the user hit '<return>' at
+ every error, and missing files cause the job to abort. In "nonstop
+ mode", diagnostic message appear on the terminal but as in batch

+ eliminates most terminal output.
+
+'-jobname=STRING'
+ Set the value of TeX's 'jobname' to the string. The log file and
+ output file will then be named 'STRING.log' and 'STRING.pdf'.
+
+ When you run 'pdflatex OPTIONS ARGUMENT', if ARGUMENT does not
+ start with a backslash then TeX considers it the name of a file to
+ input. Otherwise it waits for the first '\input' instruction and
+ the name of the input file will be the job name. This is used to
+ name the log file the output file. This option overrides that
+ process and directly specifies the name. *Note Command line
+ input:: for an example of its use.
+
+'-output-directory=DIRECTORY'
+ Write files in the directory DIRECTORY. It must already exist.
+
+'shell-escape'
+'no-shell-escape'
+'enable-write18'
+'disable-write18'
+ Enable or disable '\write18{SHELL COMMAND}'. The first two options
+ are for with TeX Live or MacTeX while the second two are for
+ MiKTeX.
+
+ Sometimes you want to run external system commands from inside a
+ LaTeX file. For instance the package 'sagetex' allows you to have
+ the mathematics software system Sage do calculations or draw graphs
+ and then incorporate that output in your document. For this TeX
+ provides the '\write18' command.
+
+ But with this functionality enabled, security issues could happen
+ if you compiled a LaTeX file from the Internet. By default
+ '\write18' is disabled. (More precisely, by default TeX Live,
+ MacTeX, and MiKTeX only allow the execution of a limited number of
+ TeX-related programs, which they distribute.)
+
+ If you invoke LaTeX with the option 'no-shell-escape', and in your
+ document you call '\write18{ls -l}', then you do not get an error
+ but the log file says 'runsystem(ls -l)...disabled'.
+
+'-halt-on-error'
+ Stop processing at the first error.
+
+'-file-line-error'
+'-no-file-line-error'
+ Enable or disable 'FILENAME:LINENO:ERROR'-style error messages.
+ These are only available with TeX Live or MacTeX.

+
+28.2 Command line input
+=======================
+
+As part of the command line invocation 'pdflatex OPTIONS ARGUMENT' you
+can specify arbitrary LaTeX input by starting ARGUMENT with a backslash.
+This allows you to do some special effects.
+
+ For example, this file (which uses the 'hyperref' package for
+hyperlinks) can produce two kinds of output, one for paper and one for a
+PDF.
+
+ \ifdefined\paperversion % in preamble
+ \newcommand{\urlcolor}{black}
+ \else
+ \newcommand{\urlcolor}{blue}
+ \fi
+ \usepackage[colorlinks=true,urlcolor=\urlcolor]{hyperref}
+ ...
+ \href{https://www.ctan.org}{CTAN} % in body
+ ...
+
+Compiling this document 'book.tex' with the command line 'pdflatex test'
+will give the 'CTAN' link in blue. But compiling it with 'pdflatex
+"\def\paperversion{}\input test.tex"' has the link in black. (Note the
+use of double quotes to prevent interpretation of the symbols by the
+command line shell; your system may do this differently.)
+
+ In a similar way, from the single file 'main.tex' you can compile two
+different versions.
+
+ pdflatex -jobname=students "\def\student{}\input{main}"
+ pdflatex -jobname=teachers "\def\teachers{}\input{main}"
+
+The 'jobname' option is there because otherwise both files would be
+called 'main.pdf' and the second would overwrite the first.
+
+ A final example. This loads the package 'graphicx' with the option
+'draft'
+
+ pdflatex -jobname=aa "\RequirePackage[draft]{graphicx}\input{aa.tex}"
+
+so the graphic files are read for their size information but not
+incorporated into the PDF. (The 'jobname' option is needed because
+otherwise the output file would be 'graphicx.pdf', as '\RequirePackage'
+does an '\input' of its own.)

+
+28.3 Recovering from errors
+===========================
+
+If LaTeX finds an error in your document then it gives you an error
+message and prompts you with a question mark, '?'. For instance,
+running LaTeX on this file
+
+ \newcommand{\NP}{\ensuremath{\textbf{NP}}}
+ The \PN{} problem is a million dollar one.
+
+causes it show this, and wait for input.
+
+ ! Undefined control sequence.
+ l.5 The \PN
+ {} problem is a million dollar one.
+ ?
+
+The simplest thing is to enter 'x' and '<return>' and fix the typo. You
+could instead enter '?' and '<return>' to see other options.
+
+ There are two other error scenarios. The first is that you forgot to
+include the '\end{document}' or misspelled it. In this case LaTeX gives
+you a '*' prompt. You can get back to the command line by typing
+'\stop' and '<return>'.
+
+ The last scenario is that you mistyped the file name. For instance,
+instead of 'pdflatex test' you might type 'pdflatex tste'.
+
+ ! I can't find file `tste'.
+ <*> tste
+
+ (Press Enter to retry, or Control-D to exit)
+ Please type another input file name:
+
+The simplest thing is to enter '<Contol>' and 'd' (holding them down at
+the same time), and just fix the command line.

+A.4 Larger 'book' template
+==========================
+
+This is a more elaborate template for a book. It has '\frontmatter',
+'\mainmatter', and '\backmatter' to control the typography of the three
+main areas of a book (*note \frontmatter & \mainmatter & \backmatter::).
+The book has a bibliography and an index.
+
+ Notable is that it uses '\include' and '\includeonly' (*note
+Splitting the input::). While you are working on a chapter you can
+comment out all the other chapter entries from the argument to
+'\includeonly'. That will speed up compilation without losing any
+information such as cross-references. (Material that does not need to
+come on a new page is brought in with '\input' instead of '\include'.
+You don't get the cross-reference benefit this way.)
