+This is the README file for the GATECH-THESIS class for LaTeX.
+It corresponds to version 1.5 of the GATECH-THESIS class
+(17 August 2002)

+Copyright (c) 2002 by Charles S. Wilson. All rights reserved.
+
+GATECH-THESIS may be obtained from any of the following locations:
+
+ http://www.grad.gatech.edu/thesis/index.html
+ this is where the official version, approved by the Georgia
+ Tech Office of Graduate Studies, may be found. Do NOT
+ attempt to use the old, out-of-date, LaTeX2.09 style file
+ (gtthesis.sty) that is STILL on cyberbuzz.
+
+ http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/gatech-thesis/
+ the most recent version, plus archives of all past versions
+ will always be here.
+
+ http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/supported/gatech-thesis/
+ and of course, CTAN.
+
+This class file can be used with the LaTeX typesetting system
+to produce dissertations that adhere to Georgia Tech's guidelines
+for publishing.
+
+There are a number of files within this archive. The important
+ones are
+
+ gatech-thesis.cls
+ gatech-thesis.bst
+ gatech-thesis-gloss.sty
+ gatech-thesis-losa.sty

+
+Everything else is fluff: examples, licensing, documentation...
+
+=============================
+Using the GATECH-THESIS class
+=============================
+
+First, read this file. Then read COMPLIANCE. Then read
+INSTALL. Take a peek a NEWS, and then (maybe) CHANGES.
+Then you can worry about the examples...
+
+Sample File
+-----------
+
+example-thesis.tex + example-thesis.bib
+
+There is a sample dissertation (by the fictitious, but very
+irritating, Perry H Disdainful) in the file example-thesis.tex. It
+also uses example-thesis.bib as its bibliography database (though
+the contents of the database are not important). Mostly this is
+useful as an example of how to produce the front matter. If you
+don't understand LaTeX at all, this file might help you get started,
+but, since you're going to be writing a 100+ page document, you
+should invest in a copy of the LaTeX manual (by Leslie Lamport, the
+original author of LaTeX). This has recently been updated for
+LaTeX2e (1, below).
+
+The LaTeX Companion, by Goossens, Mittelbach, and Samarin (who have been
+involved in developing and supporting LaTeX2e) is also quite good. It
+gives a lot of useful information if you are going to be writing or
+modifying classes, and gives a lot of additional information on commonly
+available style packages (2, below).
+
+Helpful books (in no particular order):
+ (1) "LaTeX: A Document Preparation System" by Leslie Lamport
+ (2) "The LaTeX Companion" by Goossens, Mittelbach, and Samarin
+ (3) "A Guide to LaTeX" by Helmut Kopka and Patrick Daly
+ (4) "LaTeX: Line by Line" by Antoni Diller
+ (5) "The LaTeX Graphics Companion"
+ (6) "The TeXbook" by Donald Knuth
+
+Larger Sample
+-------------
+
+julesverne/basic/*
+
+This is a slightly more complicated, multi-file example. The text
+is taken from the first five chapters of Jules Verne's ``20,000
+Leagues Under the Sea'' which is in the public domain and is freely
+redistributable. This example can be built with either latex (to
+generate a .dvi file) or with pdflatex (to generate a .pdf file).
+
+Gory, all-the-bells-and-whistles example:
+------------
+
+julesverne/bellswhistles/*
+
+This directory contains a reworked version of the jules-verne
+example "thesis". However, all of the bells and whistles
+provided by the gatech-thesis.cls class and associated styles
+are exercised, along with some suggestions for thesis document
+structuring.
+
+Features:
+ *) segregating preamble code into a document-specific style
+ *) How to easily generate OGS format complant documents
+ and prettier, "personal" copies.
+ *) Support for using hyperref (clickable links in the TOC,
+ when making a .pdf)
+ *) Using postscript versions of fonts other than Computer Modern,
+ like Times, Courier, etc. See extensive comments in
+ jules-verne.sty.
+ *) Using the listings package for including program code
+ in appendices
+ *) Using the add-on style gatech-thesis-gloss.sty for
+ generating a glossary
+ *) Using the add-on style gatech-thesis-losa.sty for
+ generating a "List of Symbols or Abbreviations"
+ *) Using the add-on style gatech-thesis-index.sty for
+ generating an index. Typically a GT thesis doesn't
+ have one of these, but the style is provided just in case.
+ *) Demonstrate the multivolume support, for those theses that
+ are over 2.5" thick (according to OGS Guidelines).
+ *) Using \include instead of \input to incorporate subsidiary
+ files into the main document. This lets you use \includeonly
+ to speed development of your document.
+
+This example requires some additional work to prepare your LaTeX
+system, before you can compile it. See the local documentation,
+julesverne/bellswhistles/00README.
+
+Building the Examples
+---------------------
+
+To compile the examples, you must first install the gatech-thesis
+files (see the INSTALL document). Also, the bells-and-whistles
+example needs some additional preparation; see its local documentation
+in julesverne/bellswhistels/00README.
+
+However, once you have all of the required items installed, you can
+build the simplest example by executing the following commands:
+
+latex example-thesis.tex
+bibtex example-thesis
+latex example-thesis.tex
+latex example-thesis.tex
+dvips example-thesis
+ (generates a postscript file)
+
+To build the other examples, run the DO_* scripts. For instance,
+if you are using a unix or unix-like system, cd to the julesverne/basic
+directory and execute:
+
+ ./DO_postscript.sh
+
+to generate a postscript output (or ./DO_pdf.sh to generate a pdf).
+If, on the other hand, you are on a DOS-ish system, the execute
+instead the file
+
+ DO_postscript.bat
+
+(or DO_pdf.bat) To understand what the scripts do (especially the
+ones in the julesverne/bellswhistles/ directory) you really ought
+to read thru them...
+
+Choosing the GATECH-THESIS class
+--------------------------------
+
+To use the GATECH-THESIS class, make sure that the gatech-thesis.cls
+file is on your TEXINPUTS search path and use the following command
+at the start of your input file:
+
+\documentclass{gatech-thesis}
+
+To insure that gatech-thesis.cls is on your TEXINPUTS search path,
+you can copy it into your localtexmf tree and then update the file
+database; or you can place it into the same directory as your
+thesis .tex files themselves. This is also described in the INSTALL
+document.
+
+=================================
+What the GATECH-THESIS class does
+=================================
+
+The GATECH-THESIS class builds on the the standard LaTeX REPORT class,
+and is accepted for use with Georgia Institute of Technology PhD
+dissertations and Masters theses. The available commands are almost
+identical to those of the REPORT class, so your best starting point
+for documentation is the LaTeX manual written by Leslie Lamport.
+
+The key features of the class are:
+
+1) The primary modification to the REPORT class is the use of
+pseudo-double-spacing, since Georgia Tech's rules are still designed
+for typewriters. This is achieved by increasing the \baselinestretch
+parameter to 1.33. The \baselinestretch is returned to a
+single-spaced value of 1.00 for elements like tables, captions, and
+footnotes and for all displayed text (quote, quotation, and verse
+environments).
+
+2) Margins are 1.5" on left, 1" on top, right and bottom (headers &
+footers 1/4" from body)
+
+3) Use 11 point by default; you can use the 10pt or 12pt options
+
+4) Page numbers are in the center at the bottom of the page
+
+5) Complete, correct front matter for Georgia Tech dissertations can
+be generated.
+
+Options
+---------------
+
+There are a number of primary options. However, if called without
+any options, the approved format -- 11pt, letterpaper, oneside,
+doublespaced, normalmargins, final -- will be generated.
+
+
+Any standard option for the LaTeX2e `report' class, including
+`10pt', `11pt', `12pt', `oneside', `twoside', etc. is valid.
+
+`singlespaced', `oneandahalfspaced', or `doublespaced':
+ Set the entire document's default line spacing, except for
+ notes, which are single-spaced by default.
+
+`spacednotes': Let the line spacing of notes be determined
+ by the line spacing of the main document, instead of being
+ forced single-spaced.
+
+`normalmargins', `narrowmargins', `widemargins', `extrawidemargins'
+ or `oldmargins': normalmargins is the default and Georgia Tech-
+ approved format. Oldmargins is the OLD Georgia Tech format.
+
+`draft': Produce a draft copy (10pt font, double-sided,
+ double-spaced, normal margins, with the word ``DRAFT'' printed
+ at all four corners of every page, and current date printed in
+ a running header).
+
+`final': style uses the correct pseudo-double-spacing. This option
+ is the default and is redundant, but is included for symmetry.
+
+`hyperref': Indicates that the document will \usepackage{hyperref}.
+ This is a kludge, but I didn't want to explicitly *require*
+ hyperref, so we must indicate to gatech-thesis.cls whether it should
+ define certain hyperref commands as dummies. ALWAYS use this
+ option if you use the hyperref package. NEVER use this option if
+ you do not also use the hyperref package.
+
+The options are selected on the \documentclass line, e.g.:
+
+\documentclass[10pt,hyperref,draft]{gatech-thesis}
+
+Thus, the default options:
+ \documentclass[11pt,letterpaper,oneside,
+ doublespaced,normalmargins,final]{gatech-thesis}
+will generate a document that conforms to the graduate studies office
+and is identical to setting no options at all
+ \documentclass{gatech-thesis}
+
+Page Headers
+------------
+
+If you want to use page headers or footers other than the default
+ones, you should try using ``fancyheadings.sty''. It is easy to use,
+widely distributed, and well documented. However, the default headers
+and footers are the Georgia Tech-approved ones. There are also
+some interesting variations defined within the gatech-thesis.cls
+itself (tcplain, gtthesis), but those should ONLY be used for personal
+copies, and NOT for your official version. See the
+julesverne/bellswhistles example.
+
+============
+Front matter
+============
+
+The other key service provided by this class is that it generates
+correct front matter (title page, approval page, dedication, etc.) with
+a fairly simple set of commands. The format of the front matter is
+specified quite explicitly in the document ``Manual for Graduate Theses:
+Georgia Institute of Technology'' distributed by Office of Graduate
+Studies.
+
+A complete example of the use of the front matter commands can be
+found in any of the examples distributed with the class
+(example-thesis.tex or julesverne/basic or julesversion/bellswhistles).
+
+Declarations
+------------
+
+To use the front matter macros and environments, you must first
+declare a number of text strings within the preamble of your document
+(that is, these must be declared BEFORE the \begin{document} command.)
+
+\title{...} Dissertation title
+
+\author{...} Your name as registered with Georgia Tech
+
+\department{...} Specify the name of the graduate department.
+ \dept{...} synonym
+
+\degree{...} Title of your degree (e.g. ``Doctor of Philosophy'')
+
+\gradyear{...} Year your degree will be granted
+\copyrightyear{...} synonym
+
+Any or all of the \*reader{}, \committeechair, or \principaladvis?r{}
+commands may be ommitted -- but your signature page will look a little
+silly if you don't include SOME names.
+
+\principaladvisor{...} Name of your thesis advisor
+\principaladviser{...} if you prefer advisor spelled with an e)
+
+\committeechair{...} Name of your committee chairperson
+
+\firstreader{...} Name of other committee member
+\secondreader{...} Name of other committee member
+\thirdreader{...} Name of other committee member
+\fourthreader{...} Name of other committee member
+\fifthreader{...} Name of other committee member
+\sixthreader{...} Name of other committee member
+
+\bibfiles{...} List of files to use when generating a bibliography
+
+\submitdate{...} Specify the ``month year'' in which dissertation
+ submitted
+
+\linespacing{...} Use this to override the default double-spacing.
+ NOT recommended; the default is approved by the
+ Graduate Studies Office. For draft/personal copies,
+ use the ``draft'' or ``singlespace'' options in your
+ documentclass statement, instead.
+\spacing{...} compatibility synonym
+
+Switches
+------------
+
+Also, there are a number of ``true/false'' flags that can be used to
+control the frontmatter generation. However, the defaults will result
+in the approved Georgia Tech format. These flags, if specified, should
+also be in the document preamble (BEFORE the \begin{document} command).
+
+\titlepagetrue or \titlepagefalse
+ - produce or don't produce a title page (TRUE by default)
+
+\signaturepagetrue or \signaturepagefalse
+ - produce or don't produce a signature page (TRUE by default)
+
+\copyrighttrue or \copyrightfalse
+ - place or don't place a copyright notice on the title page
+ (FALSE by default)
+
+\figurespagetrue or \figurespagefalse
+ - produce or don't produce a List of Figures page (TRUE by default)
+
+\tablespagetrue or \tablespagefalse
+ - produce or don't produce a List of Tables page (TRUE by default)
+
+\contentspagetrue or \contentspagefalse
+ - produce or don't produce a Table of Contents page
+ (TRUE by default)
+
+\bibpagetrue or \bibpagefalse
+ - produce or don't produce a Bibliography page (TRUE by default)
+
+\thesisproposaltrue or \thesisproposalfalse
+ - indicate ``Thesis Proposal'' or ``Thesis'' on the title page
+ (FALSE by default -- e.g. default is to say ``Thesis'')
+
+\dedicationheadingtrue or \dedicationheadingfalse
+ - display ``DEDICATION'' heading on the dedication page
+ (FALSE by default)
+
+\strictmarginstrue or \strictmarginsfalse
+ - if true, then obey the margin rules EVEN on the title and
+ signature page. Default TRUE and REQUIRED by Graduate Studies
+ Office, but not very appealing. (under ``oldmargins'' an extra
+ 50p spacing is added so that the title page looks like the
+ chapter headings. In any case, \strictmarginsfalse looks better
+ for personal copies but \strictmarginstrue is necessary for
+ official ones.
+
+\multivolumetrue or \multivolumefalse
+ - if true, indicates that the thesis will span multiple volumes.
+ triggers automatic generation of the first volume title page
+ (in addition to the ``entire work'' title page), but it''s up
+ to you to place the ``part{}'' commands in the appropriate
+ locations for volume 2, volume 3, etc.
+
+Frontmatter Environments
+------------------------
+GATECH-THESIS provides a number of specialized environments for the
+various frontmatter sections. Of course, you don't have to use them
+all. The provided environments include
+
+ dedication: \begin{dedication}
+ text here
+ \end{dedication}
+
+ preface: \begin{preface}
+ text here
+ \end{preface}
+
+ acknowledgements: \begin{acknowledgements}
+ text here
+ \end{acknowledgements}
+
+ abstract: \begin{abstract}
+ text here
+ \end{abstract}
+
+ summary: \begin{summary}
+ text here
+ \end{summary}
+
+And if that isn't enough for you, you can add your own:
+ \prefacesection{other-title}{...text...}
+Note that these add-a-sections aren't true environments (they do not
+have \begin{} and \end{} statements. So, for a ``forward'' section:
+
+ \prefacesection{forward}{text here}
+
+The ``Preliminary'' environment
+-----------------------------
+
+ALL of these preceeding environments MUST be enclosed within the
+``preliminary'' environment, which ensures that page-numbering is
+handled properly (e.g. no page number on the title page or signature
+page, use lower case roman numerals to number the frontmatter pages,
+reset the page numbers to start with arabic 1). Within this preliminary
+environment, you put the environments and commands for the rest of
+the front matter.
+
+Each environment makes its contents start on a new page. They also
+emblazon the first page with a heading -- all except for the dedication
+environment. For formatting the dedication page, you're on your own.
+After all, the dedication is a kind of poetry and there's no predicting
+the right way to format poetry. Actually, that's not entirely true:
+according to the OGS Guidelines, the dedication material should be
+centered vertically, so your text will be automatically centered. If
+you wish to override this centerring behavior, just redefine the
+dedicationtop and dedicationbottom commands:
+ \renewcommand{\dedicationtop}{\vspace*{\stretch{1}}
+ \renewcommand{\dedicationbottom{\vspace*{\stretch{3}}
+Will position your dedication at about 1/4 of the way down the page.
+Also, if you *want* an ugly ``DEDICATION'' heading emblazoned in
+bold centered letters at the top of the page, you can use the
+\dedicationheadingtrue switch within the preamble.
+
+ \begin{preliminary}
+ The other environments go in here, along with
+ \contents
+ \end{preliminary}
+
+Table of Contents, Figures, and Tables
+--------------------------------------
+
+\contents
+
+At the appropriate point within the frontmatter, generate these tables
+by issuing the \contents command. You can modify the look of the Table
+of Contents with the following commands -- which should be executed
+within the \begin{preliminary}...\end{preliminary} environment (see
+below) but before the \contents command.
+
+If you also want a ``List of Symbols or Abbreviations'', you can
+use the gatech-thesis-losa.sty add-on package: in your preamble, just
+ \usepackage{gatech-thesis-losa}
+ \losafiles{your-symbols-database}
+And then sprinkle references to your symbols or abbreviations
+within your text. Read the header in gatech-thesis-losa.sty itself
+for more information, and see how the julesverne/bellswhistles/
+example does it (and don't forget to read the documenation on the
+`gloss' package, which is used by gatech-thesis-losa.sty). You
+also will need to run `bibtex' on the LOSA database; see the above
+documentation.
+
+If you want a Glossary or ``List of Nomenclature'', you can
+use the gatech-thesis-gloss.sty add-on package: in your preamble, just
+ \usepackage{gatech-thesis-gloss}
+ \glossfiles{glossary-database}
+And then sprinkle references to your glossary terms
+within your text. Read the header in gatech-thesis-gloss.sty itself
+for more information, and see how the julesverne/bellswhistles/
+example does it (and don't forget to read the documenation on the
+`gloss' package, which is used by gatech-thesis-gloss.sty). You
+also will need to run `bibtex' on the glossary database; see the above
+documentation.
+
+\labelchaptersintableofcontents
+ inserts an entry into the TOC that says ``CHAPTERS'' just
+ before Chapter 1. Not recommended.
+
+\labelappendicesintableofcontents
+ inserts an entry into the TOC that says ``APPENDICES'' just
+ before Appendix A. Not recommended.
+
+\setchaptertocdepth
+ set the default for how ``deep'' to number within chapters
+ in the table of contents. Defaults to subsections.
+
+\setappendixtocdepth
+ set the default for how ``deep'' to number within appendices
+ (chapter{}'s after the \appendix command} in the table of
+ contents. Defaults to Appendices only (no sections or subs)
+
+\settocdepth
+ temporarily change how ``deep'' to number in the table of
+ contents for current chapter/section. For example, you
+ usually include \section{}'s in the TOC (\setchaptertocdepth{1})
+ but in chapter 5 you want to include subsection as well:
+ \chapter{This is Chapter 5}\settocdepth{2}. In chapter 6 the
+ default depth of 1 is reasserted.
+
+You should never need to call \setcounter{tocdepth}{..} directly.
+
+Use the following numbers with the various tocdepth commands above:
+ 0 = chapter only
+ 1 = chapter + sections
+ 2 = chapter, section, subsection
+ 3 = chapter, section, subsection, subsubsection
+
+
+==========
+End matter
+==========
+
+Similarly, the end matter components (bibliography, vita, index,
+afterward, etc) MUST be enclosed in a ``postliminary'' environment.
+
+GATECH-THESIS provides a few (okay, one) specialized environments for
+the various endmatter sections, as well.
+
+ vita: \begin{vita}
+ text here
+ \end{vita}
+
+And you want other sections (afterword, index), you can add them:
+ \postfacesection{other-title}{...text...}
+Note that these add-a-sections aren't true environments (they do not
+have \begin{} and \end{} statements. So, for a ``afterword'' section:
+
+ \postfacesection{afterword}{text here}
+
+Additionally, if you want an index, you can use the add-on style
+gatech-thesis-index.sty. Read the comments in that file, and
+see how the julesverne/bellswhistles/ example does it. Basically,
+you just include the following command in your preamble
+ \usepackage{gatech-thesis-index}
+and sprinkle \index commands within your text. Don't forget to
+read the documentation on the `index' package, on which the
+gatech-thesis-index.sty is based. And you'll need to run makeindex
+on the index database -- but that's all explained in the
+documentation and demonstrated by the example.
+
+Bibliography
+------------
+
+Also, within the postliminary environment, you should issue the
+ \references
+command in order to generate a bibliography in the Georgia Tech-approved
+format. There are a few tricks to getting the \references command to
+work properly, though:
+
+ \bibpagetrue
+ \bibfiles{file1,file2,...}
+
+must be set in the preamble. (Actually, since bibpagetrue is the
+default, you don't ACTUALLY need to specify it -- but don't say
+\bibpagefalse and expect \references to work.) Also,
+
+ \bibliographystyle{...}
+
+should be specified just after \begin{document}. Yes, it's a bit
+confusing, but see the example files (example-thesis.tex,
+julesverne/basic/jules-verne.tex, or
+julesverne/bellswhistles/jules-verne.sty) and all will be clear.
+
+The updated GSO Guidelines is no longer very specific about the format
+of bibliographic entries (although the example bibliography IS sorted).
+I know of one thesis that was accepted using the``plain'' bibstyle
+(which generates a sorted [not order-of-reference] bibliography). Then,
+of course, there's the gatech-thesis.bst bibliography format, which
+has been approved by the GSO. So, you'll want to use
+
+ \bibliographystyle{gatech-thesis}
+or
+ \bibliographystyle{plain}
+
+=========
+Main Body
+=========
+
+See any book on LaTeX's report class for more information, but the
+following deserves special mention:
+
+``\appendix'' is a global mode switch that changes the way ``chapter''
+headings and TOC entries are generated.
+ \chapter{last chapter title}
+ \appendix
+ \chapter{first appendix title}
+Note that you use the ``\chapter'' command to indicate new appendices --
+but only after switching the ``mode'' with the \appendix command.
+
+=====================================================
+Other commands not found in the standard report style
+=====================================================
+
+The GATECH-THESIS class also provides several other helpful environments
+and commands. These include
+
+ignore{...} or comment{...}
+ Ignore the part of the file between { and } (can include
+ paragraph breaks); useful for commenting out large blocks.
+
+\begin{longquote}...\end{longquote}:
+ Single-spaced version of the `quote' environment
+
+\begin{longquotation}...\end{longquotation}:
+ Single-spaced version of the `quotation' environment.
+
+\begin{singlespaced}...\end{singlespaced}:
+ Format single-spaced paragraphs.
+
+\begin{oneandahalfspaced}...\end{oneandahalfspaced}:
+ Format 1 1/2-spaced paragraphs.
+
+\begin{doublespaced}...\end{doublespaced}:
+ Format double-spaced paragraphs.
+
+\begin{newspacing}{<n>}...\end{newspacing}:
+ Format paragraphs with an interline spacing of `n'.
+
+\clearemptydoublepage, \clearplaindoublepage, \cleargtplaindoublepage:
+ Same as \cleardoublepage except that it sets the pagestyle of
+ any inserted blank page to `empty' `plain' or `gtplain',
+ respectively.
+
+Modifying the look of the document
+----------------------------------
+
+There are also a number of commands that can be used to change the
+look. However, the default ``look'' is the one approved by
+Georgia Tech's Graduate Studies Office, so don't use these
+``look-altering'' commands for your official versions -- only for
+personal copies.
+
+\setbodypagestyle{x}, where x = plain (the default and OGS approved),
+ empty, headings, myheadings, gtthesis, or tcplain. Avoid myheadings;
+ use the fancyheaders package instead.
+
+\setfrontpagestyle{x} - set pagestyle for frontmatter
+\setbackpagestyle{x} - set pagestyle for endmatter
+
+The Graduate Studies Office approved pagestyle is plain for
+the body, as well frontmatter and endmatter. (However, pages are
+numbered with roman numberals in the frontmatter and automatically
+switch to arabic numbers in the body and endmatter, as required by GSO.
+Don't try to change the pagenumbering style). However:
+
+ - `gtthesis' pagestyle adds a running header on each page
+ identifying the Chapter (and Section for twopage layouts).
+ This is a nice touch IMO for the body and endmatter, but
+ use it ONLY for personal copies.
+
+ - note that you also need to add \pagestyle{gtthesis}
+ if you use \setbodypagestyle{gtthesis}. See the
+ julesverne/bellswhistles/jules-verne.sty for an example of
+ how to handle this for unofficial copies.
+
+Chapter headings and the TOC use ROMAN numerals, but the running headers
+at the top of each page use ARABIC numbers for the Chapter number.
+Thus, there are two separate formats that are used.
+
+ \thegtchapter is used for ROMAN chapter numbers
+ \thechapter is used for ARABIC chapter numbers
+
+If you wish all chapter headings to use ROMAN, then just redefine
+\thechapter in your document:
+ \renewcommand{\thechapter}{\thegtchapter}
+Do the reverse if you want all ARABIC chapter numbers:
+ \renewcommand{\thegtchapter}{\thechapter}

+Installing the GATECH-THESIS class
+==================================
+
+See the INSTALL file

+===========
+Final Notes
+===========
+
+For more information about the GATECH-THESIS class and its options,
+look inside the class file itself -- it is heavily commented. Also,
+the add-on styles contain helpful comments -- and you should read
+all of the various READMEs and the comments within the ``root''
+example files:
+ example-thesis.tex
+ julesverne/basic/jules-verne.tex
+ julesverne/basic/00README
+ julesverne/bellswhistles/jules-verne.tex
+ julesverne/bellswhistles/jules-verne.sty
+ julesverne/bellswhistles/00README
+Also, it wouldn't hurt to read the NEWS file, the NOTES file, and the
+CHANGES file -- but I'd stay away from the ChangeLog unless you're a
+real glutton for punishment.
+
+And read the COMPLIANCE file -- it is a blow-by-blow commentary
+on the Office of Graduate Studies Style Manual for Theses, and
+how it relates/is implemented by GATECH-THESIS.
+
+Backward Compatibility
+----------------------
+
+There are a number of commands available within gatech-thesis.cls that
+are purely for backward compatibility with the older official
+gt-thesis.sty style file that was previously provided by the Georgia
+Tech Graduate Studies Office. In theory, one could take a disseration
+that previously began:
+
+ documentstyle{report}
+ \usepackage{gt-thesis.sty}
+
+and replace those two commands with
+
+ documentclass{gatech-thesis}
+
+And it should ``just work''(tm). These backwards compatibility commands
+are not recommended for NEW documents, and they are described only in
+the comments inside the gatech-thesis.cls file itself.
