+%% To use this package, all you need do is include

+%%   \glossfiles{<glosary file, sans .bib suffix>}
+%% in your preamble, and the glossary will be automatically generated

+%% Read the gloss.sty documentation for more info, but basically 
+%% gatech-thesis-gloss.sty makes it simple:
+%%    1. insert the two commands above into your preamble
+%%    2. create a glossfile with your glossary definitions
+%%    3. sprinkle \gloss{} citations in your text

+%%
+%%  REVISION HISTORY:
+%%
+%%  v1.6: 2003-Apr-14  Charles S. Wilson
+%%      * caption labels: OGS requires (e.g.) 'Figure 2:' to be in
+%%        same font as rest of caption (bold ok, changing font not ok)
+%%      * make vita double-spaced
+%%      * fixed a bug in Signature page when no Committee Chair.  Thanks
+%%        Arnaud Cottet for reporting it.
+%%      * Changed one-and-a-half spacing to better match the description
+%%        in The LaTeX Companion (use 1.25, not 1.33).
+%%  v1.5: 2002-Aug-17  Charles S. Wilson
+%%      * COMPLIANCE: new documentation
+%%      * caption labels: make them prettier
+%%      * Change gatech-thesis-gloss.sty to handle real glossaries;
+%%      * NEW: gatech-thesis-losa.sty now handles the List of Symbols
+%%  v1.4: 2002-Aug-03  Charles S. Wilson
+%%      * Better handling of equation, table, and figure numbering
+%%        (added David Carlisle's \@removefromreset macro, and use
+%%        that instead of the previous kludge.)
+%%      * Corrected problem with two-sided printing: the even-numbered
+%%        (left hand) page between the end of \preliminary and the
+%%        beginning of the first chapter was not printed.  This really
+%%        messed up duplex printers.  FIXED.
+%%      * Corrected problem when vita (or whatever the last section
+%%        before \end{postliminary}) was \included instead of \inputted.
+%%      * Signature page no longer prints empty lines for non-existent 
+%%        committee members.  Also, uses two columns if more than 4
+%%        members, per the Graduate Office Guidelines.  AND we no longer
+%%        print its page number
+%%      * Now uses (requires) the calc package, which is part of the
+%%        standard latex installation.
+%%      * Automatically center the dedication (but see the new functions
+%%        \dedicationtop and \dedicationbottom
+%%      * Correctly doublespace the title on both titlepage and signaturepage
+%%      * page numbering defaults to a centered footer, as per the new
+%%        Graduate Office guidelines
+%%      * Added proper handling for multiple volumes in a single thesis
+%%      * Added support for the add-on styles ``gatech-thesis-gloss.sty''
+%%        and ``gatech-thesis-index.sty''.
+%%  v1.3: 2002-Jan-13  Charles S. Wilson
+%%      * Renamed to gatech-thesis at request of the CTAN folks.
+%%  v1.2: 2001-May-01  Charles S. Wilson
+%%      * Minor tweaks to conform to latest GSO requirements
+%%  v1.1: 2001-Apr-29  Charles S. Wilson
+%%      * Fixup to work nicely with pdflatex and hyperref
+%%  v1.0: 2001-Jan-24  Charles S. Wilson
+%%      * Initial release: merged UT-THESIS.STY with GTthesis.sty
+%%        and gt-thesissty.sty.
+%%
+%%  KNOWN BUGS:
+%%
+%%   - FIXED: (sortof) [On ``dedication'' and ``acknowledgements''
+%%     causing an error when they both appear on the same page.]
+%%     GT style doesn't allow these to appear on the same page,
+%%     so \begin{dedication}...\end{dedication} will ALWAYS
+%%     appear on its own page.  Ditto acknowledgements.
+%%
+%%   - I didn't fix this; GATECH-THESIS.CLS has inherited this bug
+%%     from UT-THESIS.CLS: [On missing page headers for float pages.]
+%%     ``teTex'' under Linux fails in precisely the same way as does
+%%     ``MikTeX'', so there's something clearly wrong somewhere, but
+%%     I don't know where.  It only fails on odd-numbered pages (if
+%%     you remove enough text so that the page floats back to an
+%%     even-numbered page, the page header is correct)!

+%% OLD:  
+%% OLD:  REVISION HISTORY:
+%% OLD:  
+%% OLD:  v1.8: 1999/12/10 (Francois Pitt)
+%% OLD:      - Fixed circular definition problem with \currenttextsize
+%% OLD:        that caused TeX to run out of input stack memory.
+%% OLD:  v1.7: 1999/06/02,1999/05/20,1999/05/13 (Francois Pitt)
+%% OLD:      - Minor change to the format of the date printed on every
+%% OLD:        page with the ``draft'' option.
+%% OLD:      - Minor cosmetic change to the word ``DRAFT'' printed on the
+%% OLD:        corners of every page with the ``draft'' option.
+%% OLD:      - Made ``draft'' mode doublespaced by default (it just makes
+%% OLD:        more sense for actual drafts; suggested by Eric Joanis).
+%% OLD:      - Changed \currenttextsize from a ``\newcommand'' to a ``\let''.
+%% OLD:      - Added ``known bugs'' above.
+%% OLD:  v1.6: 1999/03/06 (Francois Pitt)
+%% OLD:      - Minor change: replaced ``\ifx\empty#1\else...\fi'' with
+%% OLD:        ``\ifx\empty#1\empty\else...\fi'' (the former works only
+%% OLD:        by accident while the latter is logically correct).
+%% OLD:  v1.5: 1999/02/17 (Francois Pitt)
+%% OLD:      - Fixed missing page numbers and headers by removing
+%% OLD:        redefinition of \cleardoublepage (reported by Robert
+%% OLD:        Bernecky 1999/02/04 and Nedialko Nedialkov 1999/02/12).
+%% OLD:      - Added \clearemptydoublepage and \clearplaindoublepage
+%% OLD:        commands.
+%% OLD:      - Removed redefinitions of \tableofcontents, \listoftables,
+%% OLD:        and \listoffigures because they already call \clearpage
+%% OLD:        or \cleardoublepage by default.
+%% OLD:      - Removed ``\setcounter{tocdepth}{2}'' from the page layout
+%% OLD:        section (moved to ``ut-thesis.tex'' where it belongs).
+%% OLD:      - Added \ignore command to comment out parts of a file.
+%% OLD:      - Put version macros at the top of the file.
+%% OLD:      - Changed order of revision comments.
+%% OLD:  v1.4: 1998/11/05 (Francois Pitt)
+%% OLD:      - Fixed ``abstract'' environment so that it is really put on a
+%% OLD:        separate page, and changed ``\newpage\endgroup'' at the end
+%% OLD:        to ``\par\endgroup\newpage'', which is more logical.
+%% OLD:      - Changed ``acknowledgements'' environment so that it is *not*
+%% OLD:        put on a separate page, allowing users to add other text
+%% OLD:        on that page (e.g., ``dedication'' described next).
+%% OLD:      - Added ``dedication'' environment based on ``acknowledgements''
+%% OLD:        (suggested by Robert Bernecky 98/11/04).
+%% OLD:      - Changed page layout so that it is defined in terms of the
+%% OLD:        physical page size instead of being hard-coded for letter
+%% OLD:        paper (8.5" x 11").
+%% OLD:  v1.3: 1998/11/01 (Francois Pitt)
+%% OLD:      - Fixed ``thebibliography'' so page headers are generated in
+%% OLD:        the same style as for the rest of the thesis.
+%% OLD:      - Swapped \endgroup and \newpage in definition of ``abstract''
+%% OLD:        and ``acknowledgements'' environments, to fix problem with
+%% OLD:        adjusted line spacing in ``abstract''.
+%% OLD:      - Renamed ``\currentsize'' to ``\currenttextsize''.
+%% OLD:      - Added \cleardoublepage at the end of preliminary sections,
+%% OLD:        so that page 1 of main text is on right-hand side.
+%% OLD:  v1.2: 1998/10/20 (Francois Pitt)
+%% OLD:      - Changed ``spacenotes'' option to ``spacednotes'' to have more
+%% OLD:        consistently named options.
+%% OLD:      - Fixed spacing between main text and footnotes.
+%% OLD:      - Fixed ``singlespaced'' environment, which didn't seem to
+%% OLD:        work at all (reported by Nedialko Nedialkov 98/10/12):
+%% OLD:        Actually, created a ``newspacing'' environment, which takes
+%% OLD:        a parameter, and based ``singlespaced'', ``oneandahalfspaced'',
+%% OLD:        and ``doublespaced'' environments on ``newspacing''.
+%% OLD:  v1.1: 1998/10/01 (Francois Pitt)
+%% OLD:      - Fixed bug that caused footnotes to make following tables
+%% OLD:        single-spaced (reported by Philip Edmonds 98/09/30).
+%% OLD:      - Made spacing of marginal notes and footnotes the same.
+%% OLD:      - Added option to control line spacing of notes.
+%% OLD:      - Added options to control the size of margins.
+%% OLD:      - Changed names of temporary macros used in redefinitions
+%% OLD:        to avoid conflicts with existing names.
+%% OLD:  v1.0: 1998/09/29 (Francois Pitt)
+%% OLD:      - Initial version.

+%%  
+%%  LaTeX2e class file for formatting documents according to the
+%%  Graduate Studies' guidelines for theses at the Georgia Institute 
+%%  of Technology. 
+%%  
+%%  USAGE:  \documentclass{gatech-thesis}
+%%          \documentclass[...options...]{gatech-thesis}
+%%  
+%%  The default settings produce a final copy, ready for submission
+%%  (11pt font, single-sided, double-spaced, normal margins,
+%%  with single-spaced notes).
+%%  
+%%  OPTIONS:
+%%  
+%%   - Any standard option for the LaTeX2e ``report'' class, including
+%%     ``10pt'', ``11pt'', ``12pt'', ``oneside'', ``twoside'', etc.
+%%  
+%%   - ``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.
+%%  
+%%   - ``narrowmargins'', ``normalmargins'', ``widemargins'', 
+%%     ``extrawidemargins'' or ``oldmargins'':  Set the size of 
+%%     the margins, as follows:
+%%      . ``normal'': 1 1/2" on left, 1" on top, right and bottom
+%%        headers & footers 1/4" from body;
+%%        - This is the Georgia Tech standard
+%%      . ``narrow'': 1 1/4" on the left, 3/4" on all other sides,
+%%        headers & footers 1/4" from body;
+%%      . ``wide'': 1 1/4" on all sides, headers & footers 3/4" from
+%%        body;
+%%      . ``extrawide'': 1 1/2" on all sides, headers & footers 3/4"
+%%        from body.
+%%      . ``oldmargins'': 1 1/2" on left and top, 1" on right and bottom
+%%        headers & footers 1/2 from body;
+%%        adds 2"" extra space from top of page, on the first
+%%        page of a chapter or appendix.
+%%        - This is the OLD Georgia Tech standard
+%%     (If you have more than just a few marginal notes, it is
+%%     recommended that you use ``wide'' or ``extrawide'' margins.)
+%%     Use ``normalmargins'' (the default) for the approved GT 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 footer).
+%%
+%%   - ``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.
+%%  
+%%  Note that these options can be used to override the default or
+%%  draft document settings, so that it is possible, for example,
+%%  to create a double-sided final copy, or a 1 1/2-spaced draft
+%%  copy with wide margins, etc.  Also note that when producing
+%%  double-sided documents, new chapters and preliminary sections
+%%  will always start on a right-hand page under the default
+%%  settings (inserting a blank page if needed), but not if the
+%%  ``draft'' option was used.  (This can be overriden by using the
+%%  ``openany'' or ``openright'' options.  To achieve this effect for
+%%  individual sections or chapters, use the \cleardoublepage
+%%  command.)  Note that the blank page inserted in these cases will
+%%  still contain the header and page number that is present on all
+%%  pages.  For ``empty'' or ``plain'' pages, explicitly use one of the
+%%  commands \clearemptydoublepage (totally blank inserted pages),
+%%  \clearplaindoublepage (blank except for page number at bottom), or
+%%  \cleartcplainfdoublepage (blank except for page number at Top
+%%  Corner (hence, TCplain).  You can also explicitly use 
+%%  \cleargtthesisdoublepage (but I don't know why you would, since this
+%%  only makes sense if the current pagestyle is already gtthesis, and
+%%  if that is the case then you're better off just using \cleardoublepage.
+%%  
+%%  NEW ENVIRONMENTS and COMMANDS:
+%%   in some cases, there will be two commands with identical
+%%   effect.  These are usually because one is needed to maintain
+%%   compatibility with documents that expect the old macros from
+%%   GTthesis.sty.
+%%  
+%%   * \title{...}:  (preamble only; REQUIRED)
+%%
+%%   * \author{...}:  (preamble only; REQUIRED)
+%%     Specify the name of the author.
+%%
+%%   * \department{...}:    (preamble only; REQUIRED)
+%%   * \dept{...}:          compatibility synonym
+%%     Specify the name of the graduate department.
+%%
+%%   * \degree{...}:  (preamble only; REQUIRED)
+%%     Specify the name of the degree (e.g., "Doctor of Philosophy").
+%%  
+%%   * \gradyear{...}:      (preamble only; REQUIRED)
+%%   * \copyrightyear{...}: compatibility synonym
+%%     Specify the year of graduation (defaults to current year).
+%%
+%%   * \principaladvisor{...}:  (preamble only; OPTIONAL)
+%%     (or \principaladviser{...}, if you prefer advisor spelled with an e)
+%%
+%%   * \committeechair{...}: (preamble only; OPTIONAL)
+%%
+%%   * \firstreader{...}:    (preamble only; OPTIONAL)
+%%   * \secondreader{...}:   (preamble only; OPTIONAL)
+%%   * \thirdreader{...}:    (preamble only; OPTIONAL)
+%%   * \fourthreader{...}:   (preamble only; OPTIONAL)
+%%   * \fifthreader{...}:    (preamble only; OPTIONAL)
+%%   * \sixthreader{...}:    (preamble only; OPTIONAL)
+%%
+%%   * \submitdate{month year in which submitted}
+%%     date is LaTeX'd if not specified
+%%
+%%   * \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)
+%%
+%%   * \dedicationheadingtrue or \dedicationheadingfalse
+%%     - display ``DEDICATION'' heading on the dedication page (FALSE by default)
+%%
+%%   * \dedicationtop and \dedicationbottom
+%%     - The Graduate Office Guidelines say that the dedication should be centered
+%%       on the page.  By default, this is done -- but IMO it looks ugly.  The
+%%       vertical spacing above and below your text is proided by these two
+%%       macros; redefined them if you want to do something different.  E.g.
+%%       this looks nice:
+%%         \renewcommand{\dedicationtop}{\vspace*{\stretch{1}}
+%%         \renewcommand{\dedicationbottom{\vspace*{\stretch{3}}
+%%       which places the dedication about 1/4 of the way down the page.
+%%
+%%   * \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.
+%% 
+%%   * \bibfiles{...}
+%%    Set the list of bibfiles to use when generating a bibliography   
+%%  
+%%   - \linespacing{...}:  (preamble only)
+%%   - \spacing{...}:      compatibility synonym
+%%     Set the interline spacing directly, overriding document
+%%     defaults and options; note that in order to get the correct
+%%     appearance, the argument to \linespacing must be equal to
+%%     1/3 + 2/3 times the desired line spacing (for example,
+%%        single-spaced = \linespacing{1},
+%%         1 1/2-spaced = \linespacing{1.25}, and
+%%        double-spaced = \linespacing{1.66}).
+%%
+%%   - ignore{...}:
+%%   - comment{...}:     compatibility synonym
+%%     Ignore the part of the file between { and } (can include
+%%     paragraph breaks); useful for commenting out large blocks.
+%%  
+%%   - \clearemptydoublepage, \clearplaindoublepage, 
+%%     \cleartcplaindoublepage, \cleargtthesisdoublepage
+%%     Same as \cleardoublepage except that it sets the pagestyle of
+%%     any inserted blank page to ``empty'' ``plain'' ``tcplain'' or
+%%     ``gtthesis'' respectively.
+%% 
+%%   - \begin{preliminary}...\end{preliminary}:
+%%     Delimit head matter (title page, abstract, table of contents,
+%%     lists of tables and figures, etc.): set the page style and
+%%     numbering for the preliminary sections and reset them for the
+%%     main document.
+%%    + Alternatively, at the appropriate spots call the synonums 
+%%      \beforepreface and \afterpreface.  These ``synonyms'' do
+%%      the same setup tasks as \begin{preliminary} and \end{preliminary},
+%%      but they don't create an ``environment.  The use of these
+%%      synonyms is NOT recommended for new documents and are provided 
+%%      only for backward compatibility.
+%%
+%%      - \beforepreface:
+%%        Sets pagestyle and generates titlepage (via \maketitle)
+%%        and signature page (via \makesignature) if indicated.
+%%        DON'T call directly in new documents.  Use \begin{preliminary}
+%%        instead.
+%%
+%%      - \afterpreface:
+%%        Sets pagestyle back to normal, restarts page numbering
+%%        DON'T call directly in new documents.  Use \end{preliminary}
+%%        instead.
+%%  
+%%      - \maketitle:
+%%        Generate the title page from the information supplied
+%%        in the preamble.  Called automatically by \begin{preliminary}
+%%        or \beforepreface.
+%%
+%%      - \makesignature:
+%%        Generate a signature page from information supplied 
+%%        in the preamble.  Called automatically by \begin{preliminary}
+%%        or \beforepreface.
+%%  
+%%      - \begin{dedication}...\end{dedication}:
+%%        Generate a dedication section, if needed.
+%%  
+%%      - \begin{acknowledgements}...\end{acknowledgements}:
+%%        Generate an acknowledgements section, if needed.
+%%
+%%      - \begin{abstract}...\end{abstract}:
+%%        Generate the abstract page.
+%%  
+%%      - \begin{summary}...\end{summary}:
+%%        Generate a summary page (same as abstract, but different
+%%        heading)
+%%
+%%      - \begin{preface}...\end{preface}:
+%%        Generate a preface section, if needed.
+%%
+%%      - \prefacesection{other-title}{...text...}
+%%        Used to specify frontmatter sections that do not have
+%%        custom environments defined for them above.
+%%
+%%      - \contents
+%%        Prints table of contents, list of figures, and list of
+%%        tables as indicated by \contentspagetrue, \figurespagetrue,
+%%        and \tablespagetrue
+%%
+%%      - Modifying the look of the Table of Contents:
+%%
+%%        + \labelchaptersintableofcontents 
+%%          inserts an entry into the TOC that says ``CHAPTERS'' just 
+%%          before Chapter 1.
+%%
+%%        + \labelappendicesintableofcontents
+%%          inserts an entry into the TOC that says ``APPENDICES'' just 
+%%          before Appendix A.
+%%        
+%%        + \settocstring
+%%          change the name used for the Table of Contents (def: 'Table of Contents')
+%%        
+%%        + \setlofstring
+%%          change the name used for the List of Figures (def: 'List of Figures')
+%%
+%%        + \setlotstring
+%%          change the name used for the List of Tables (def: 'List of Tables')
+%%
+%%        + \setchaptertocdepth
+%%          set the default for how ``deep'' to number within chapters
+%%          in the table of contents.
+%%
+%%        + \setappendixtocdepth
+%%          set the default for how ``deep'' to number within appendices
+%%          (chapter{}'s after the \appendix command) in the table of
+%%          contents
+%%
+%%        + \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 cahapter 6 the
+%%          default depth of 1 is reasserted.
+%%  
+%%         You should never need to call \setcounter{tocdepth}{..} directly.
+%%         0 = chapter only
+%%         1 = chapter + sections
+%%         2 = chapter, section, subsection

+%%        - The Graduate Studies Office approved pagestyle is

+%%          Don't try to change the pagenumbering style).  However:
+%%        - gtthesis 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}.
+%%
+%%      + 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 for all ARABIC chapter numbers:
