-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.
-
-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).
-
-
-Features:
- 1) segregating preamble code into a document-specific style
-
- 2) support for using either latex+dvips or pdflatex to
- generate .ps and .pdf versions
-
- 3) How to easily generate OGS format complant documents
- and prettier, "personal" copies.
-
- 4) Support for using hyperref (clickable links in the TOC,
- when making a .pdf)
-
- 5) Using postscript versions of fonts other than Computer Modern,
- like Times, Courier, etc. See extensive comments in
- jules-verne.sty.
-
- 6) Using additional symbol fonts (latexsym, textcomp + fixups)
-
- 7) Using the listings package for including program code
- in appendices
-
- 8) Useful macros for referencing Figures, Equations, etc.
-
- 9) Using the add-on style gatech-thesis-gloss.sty for
- generating a Glossary or List of Nomenclature
-
- 10) Using the add-on style gatech-thesis-losa.sty for
- generating a "List of Symbols or Abbreviations")
-
- 11) 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.
-
- 12) Demonstrate the multivolume support, for those theses that
- are over 2.5" thick (according to OGS Guidelines).
-
- 13) Using \include instead of \input to incorporate subsidiary
- files into the main document. This lets you use \includeonly
- to speed development of your document. (But see the
- hack-part.tex file for an explanation of a LaTeX bug that
- is exposed, and the workaround)
-
-To run the example, you must first install all of the following
-files in the appropriate locations in your texmf (or localtexmf) tree.
- <texmf>/tex/latex/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis.cls
- <texmf>/tex/latex/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis-patch.sty
- <texmf>/tex/latex/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis-gloss.sty
- <texmf>/tex/latex/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis-losa.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, of course, you need all of the packages that this mega-example
-uses. Use whatever tool is the normal mechanism for installing
-additional packages in your tex system -- on MikTeX, that's 'MikTeX
-Options'. The required packages are:
-
- graphicx -- this is a 'standard' package; you should already have it
- color -- ditto
- fontenc -- ditto
- textcomp -- ditto
- latexsym -- ditto
- ifthen -- ditto
- url -- ditto
-
- txfonts -- not a default package. You'll need to install this one.
- hyperref
- subfigure
- caption2
- amsmath
- amsfonts
- amssymb
- listings -- make sure to also install the lstpatch.sty file from
- 2002-08-06 or newer, available here if your TeX dist
- doesn't provide it: http://www.atscire.de/products/listings/
- thumbpdf -- this one is tricky to use on Windows (it contains a
- perl support script, and needs access to ghostscript)
- Comment it out in jules-verne.sty and in the two
- do_*.sh scripts.
- longtable
- colortbl
- dcolumn
-
-Then, make sure that latex & friends are in your path, and run the DO_*.sh
-scripts (or the DO_*.bat files). And be sure to actually READ the
-jules-verne.sty document-specific style; it is heavily commented with lots
-of useful information.
-
-Now, many of these features aren't used (and shouldn't be used) when
-generating your official, final paper copy for submission. That's
-all handled by the options passed to the jules-verne.sty style and
-to the gatech-thesis.cls from your main, root document. See the
-first 20 or so lines in jules-verne.tex. For official copies,
-you'd do this:
- \documentclass{gatech-thesis}
- \usepackage[official]{jules-verne}
-
-Actually, you'd probably make a copy of jules-verne.sty (say,
-'johnthesis.sty') and modify it to suit. But you knew that already.
-
-You might notice that there is no example .pdf, .ps, or .dvi file
-included in this 'bells and whistles' directory. That's by
-design: for the most part, these bells and whistles are intended for
-your personal copies and drafts, NOT for the "official" document.
-
-And there are already examples of how an official document should
-look, in the main directory and in the julesverne/basic directory.
