However, until +then you have to do it by hand. + +The following files should end up in your texmf tree +(or your localtexmf tree) at these locations: + + <texmf>/tex/latex/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis.cls + <texmf>/tex/latex/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis-patch.sty + <texmf>/tex/latex/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis-losa.sty + <texmf>/tex/latex/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis-gloss.sty + <texmf>/tex/latex/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis-index.sty + <texmf>/bibtex/bst/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis.bst + <texmf>/bibtex/bst/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis-losa.bst + <texmf>/makeindex/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis-index.ist + +Then, you need to update the file database; usually this is +something like "initexmf -u". On MikTeX, you run the "MikTeX +Options" program, and on the "General" tab, in the "File name +database" section, click on the button that says "Refresh Now". + +Alternatively, you can simply copy all of these files into your +local work directory where your thesis files will live. +However, this is sometimes dangerous as you might be tempted +to edit them directly. Wherever you choose to install the +official files, don't edit or modify them.. + +You should not need to modify the style/class files. However, +if you find that you must modify their behavior, the best thing +to do is to copy just the section of code (e.g. the function +definition) that needs changing into your own personal, +document-specific style file, and edit it there. You're +version will override the "real" version -- and there is no +need to modify the standard files. + +See the commented-out section at the end of +julesverne/bellswhistles/jules-verne.sty file, which is an +example of just this sort of thing -- it modifies the \contents +macro in gatech-thesis.cls, *without actually editing +gatech-thesis.cls* + |
