+
+The package Tikz-FeynHand https://ctan.org/pkg/tikz-feynhand let's you draw Feynman diagrams using TikZ.
+
+It is a low-end modification of the package TikZ-Feynman at https://ctan.org/pkg/tikz-feynman,
+one of whose principal advantages is the automatic generation of diagrams, for which it needs LuaTex.
+FeynHand only provides the manual mode and hence runs in LaTex without any reference to LuaTex.
+
+In addition it provides some NEW STYLES for vertices and propagators,
+alternative SHORTER KEYWORDS in addition to TikZ-Feynman's longer ones,
+some shortcut commands for QUICKLY CUSTOMIZING the diagrams' look,
+and the new feature to put one propagator "ON TOP" of another.
+
+It also includes a quick USER GUIDE for getting started,
+with many examples and a 5-minute introduction to TikZ.

+LIST OF CHANGES
+
+by which this package tikz-feynhand (Version 1.0.0 of 2018/01/31)
+which is available at https://ctan.org/pkg/tikz-feynhand
+
+was obtained from the original package tikz-feynman (Version 1.1.0 of 2016/02/05)
+which is available at https://ctan.org/pkg/tikz-feynman
+
+==========================================================================
+
+The LICENSE has been changed from LPPL to GNU General Public Licence v3.
+
+The changes are rather minor:
+any reference to LuaTex has been removed,
+the definitions that are unnecessary
+for manual diagram creation have been removed,
+and some drawing styles have been added.
+
+In general, I REPLACED each occurence of the string "feynman" by "feynhand",
+in order to avoid clashes when both packages are loaded simultaneously,
+and most of these replacements are NOT listed individually below.
+Apart from that, the list below contains all changes to the best of my knowledge.
+
+The files tikzfeynman.patch.3.0.0.lua and tikzfeynman.patch.3.0.1.lua
+of the original package are not contained in the modified package,
+neither is the documentation of the original package.
+
+All file names and line numbers below refer to
+the files of the original package tikz-feynman (Version 1.1.0 of 2016/02/05).

+\noindent
+\textbf{TikZ-FeynHand} is a low-end version of Joshua Ellis' original
+\textbf{TikZ-Feynman} package \cite{tikzfeynman} (Version 1.1.0),
+which has provided efficient new ways of drawing beautiful Feynman diagrams automatically
+(and manually).
+FeynHand is a modification for those users who want \textbf{easy access} to TikZ-Feynman's
+drawing styles \textbf{in LaTex without any reference to LuaTex},
+and who want to \textbf{customize the diagrams} more easily.
+FeynHand thus aims to be an alternative way to access
+the manual mode of its big brother TikZ-Feynman.
+
+The drawing styles of TikZ-FeynHand are available through simple commands
+following the \textbf{syntax conventions of TikZ,}
+which uses Tex-like commands to create graphics.
+Since there are still \textbf{journals} which do not yet support TikZ in submissions,
+TikZ is capable of creating separate PDF graphic files,
+which can then be submitted with the article.
+This is called \textbf{externalizing the graphics} and is outlined in
+Appendix~\ref{Apx_tikzbasics_externalize},
+see also Section~50.4 in the TikZ/PGF Manual~\cite{tikz}.
+\\[1.5mm]
+%
+\noindent
+The \textbf{GENERAL WORKFLOW} for creating a diagram with TikZ-FeynHand is the following:
+\begin{itemize}
+\itembf[0.]
+ Initialize the \vercol\verb$feynhand$\txcol environment
+ inside the \vercol\verb$tikzpicture$\txcol environment\\
+ (in turn typically within a \vercol\verb$figure$\txcol or some math environment).
+ %
+ \itembf[1.]
+ Set the positions of the vertices and the styles they are drawn in.
+ %
+ \itembf[2.]
+ Insert the propagator lines between the vertices.
+ %
+ \itembf[x.]
+ Draw extra objects (like coordinate systems).
+ %
+\end{itemize}
+%
+FeynHand offers additonal shorter versions of TikZ-Feynmans TikZ-keys,
+because I find some of them quite long, e.g.~\vercol\verb$anti charged boson$\txcol.
+With little practice and efficient use of copy and paste,
+the ease of creating diagrams by hand is similar in both packages.
+FeynHand contains a few tweaks that are handy for me and might be for others.
+\\[1mm]
+The other main \textbf{features of FeynHand that differ from TikZ-Feynman}
+(Version 1.1.0) are listed below.
+%
+\begin{itemize}
+ %
+ \item
+ Package does neither load the Tex package \vercol\verb$ifluatex$\txcol,\\
+ nor TikZ-Feynman's Lua patches \vercol\verb$tikzfeynman.patch.x.x.x.lua$\txcol.
+ %
+ \item
+ No extra \vercol\verb$\diagram$\txcol environment is needed,
+ since everything is placed by hand.
+ %
+ \item
+ \vercol\verb$top$\txcol style option for crossing propagators introduced,
+ see Section~\ref{sec:_feynmandiagrams_propagators_top}.
+ %
+ \item
+ Some additional vertex and propagator styles are available,
+ see Sections~\ref{sec:_feynmandiagrams_vertices}
+ and \ref{sec:_feynmandiagrams_propagators}.
+ %
+ \item
+ Shortcut commands for quickly customizing the diagrams' look,
+ see Section~\ref{sec:_feynmandiagrams_customizing}.

+ For brevity, we access/leave math mode via \$ instead of the \vercol\verb$\($\txcol
+ and \vercol\verb$\)$\txcol suggested in TikZ-Feynman's manual.\\
+ However, this is rather a personal preference and the opinions on this topic are divided.

+\end{itemize}

+This user guide just describes briefly \textbf{how to quickly use FeynHand.}
+There is also a three-page introduction to TikZ in Appendix~\ref{Apx_tikzbasics}.
+For more information on TikZ-Feynman's capabilities and commands,
+we recommend its elaborate documentation \cite{tikzfeynman},
+in particular Section~3, and also recommend the introduction
+and extensive manual of TikZ \cite{tikz}.
+%
+In all commands and keys mentioned in \cite{tikzfeynmanArticle}
+and the corresponding files, the string \vercol\verb$feynman$\txcol has been replaced
+by \vercol\verb$feynhand$\txcol in the FeynHand package,
+in order to prevent any clash of variable names,
+if both TikZ-Feynman and FeynHand are used together in the same LaTex document.

+\label{sec:_feynmandiagrams}
+%

+%
+\subsection{Environment}
+\label{sec:_feynmandiagrams_environment}
+%
+\noindent
+The \blucol\verb$feynhand$\txcol package is loaded as usual
+with \blucol\verb$\usepackage{tikzfeynhand}$\txcol.
+All FeynHand commands are used within the \blucol\verb$feynhand$\txcol
+environment, which needs to be placed inside the \blucol\verb$tikzpicture$\txcol
+environment%
+\footnote{It is possible to define \texttt{feynhand} such that it includes \texttt{tikzpicture}.
+ We decide against this so that \texttt{feynhand}
+ can be used as a scope inside \texttt{tikzpicture}.
+ Further, doing so would make externalizing the graphics more difficult.}.
+%
+Of course, all \textbf{TikZ commands remain available} within \blucol\verb$feynhand$\txcol,
+and TikZ commands can also be placed outside of \blucol\verb$feynhand$\txcol
+inside the \blucol\verb$tikzpicture$\txcol enclosing it.
+
+The \textbf{coordinate system} used by TikZ is the usual cartesian (x,y)-plane,
+with the x-axis pointing horizontally to the right
+and the y-axis pointing vertically upwards on the page.
+The default coordinate unit is centimeters.
+We recall that all TikZ and/or FeynHand commands must \textbf{end with
+a \;;\; (semicolon).}
+
+When we want to use captions and labels, we enclose \blucol\verb$feynhand$\txcol
+in the \blucol\verb$figure$\txcol environment as below.
+%
+\blucol\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{figure}

+\subsection{Equations involving Feynman diagrams}
+%
+The \vercol\verb$feynhand$\txcol environment can also be used directly
+in math environments. For example, the code below produces the (nonsense) equation below it.
+For the \vercol\verb$baseline$\txcol option of the
+\vercol\verb$tikzpicture$\txcol environment, see Section~12.2.1
+in the TikZ/PGF Manual \cite{tikz}.
+In the first diagram we have set it to the y-coordinate of the vertex (o),
+and in the second we have set it to the value y=-0.3cm.
+That is, in each diagram the corresponding horizontal lines of constant y-coordinate
+are aligned with the baseline of the math environment.

+\subsection{Vertices}
+\label{sec:_feynmandiagrams_vertices}
+%
+\noindent
+The \vercol\verb$\vertex$\txcol command is the same as in TikZ-Feynman,
+and essentially consists of the command \vercol\verb$node$\txcol of TikZ.
+By declaring a vertex, we mean defining its name and its position
+in the coordinate system, and specifying how the vertex is to be drawn,
+see below for examples.
+The vertices' names are mere labels for later reference
+(just like equation labels in Latex)
+and don't show up anywhere in the graph.
+The idea is now to use the vertices' names as a reference for their
+coordinates. This makes their use and modification much easier.
+For example, we can draw a line from vertex (a) to (b) by
+\vercol\verb$\draw (a) to (b);$\txcol
+see Section~\ref{sec:_feynmandiagrams_propagators}.
+
+Below we list the available vertex styles.
+Some users like to draw a gap in propagator lines which cross each other
+without any interaction being implied there.
+This can be done using gap vertices,
+see Section~\ref{sec:_feynmandiagrams_propagators_top}.
+%
+% ------------------------------------------------------
+\subsubsection*{Bare vertex}
+%
+\noindent
+This is the basic vertex: nothing is drawn at the vertex itself,
+it merely connects propagator lines.
+Note that we do not put an empty argument \redcol\verb${}$\txcol at the end.

+\subsection{Propagators}
+\label{sec:_feynmandiagrams_propagators}
+%
+\noindent
+You can draw propagators between vertices with FeynHand's \vercol\verb$\propag$\txcol command,
+whose long version \vercol\verb$\propagator$\txcol also works.
+Both are just TikZ' \vercol\verb$\draw$\txcol command,
+and thus can access all styles defined in TikZ-Feynman.
+The minimal example \vercol\verb$\propag[fer] (a) to (b);$\txcol
+draws a fermion propagator from vertex (a) and (b).
+Below we list all propagator styles and draw examples.
+FeynHand uses intuitive 3/6-letter versions, but also keeps TikZ-Feynman's longer ones:

+\blucol\verb!edge label!\txcol sets a propagator label
+to the left of the propagator line, and the primed version
+\blucol\verb!edge label'!\txcol sets one to its right,
+see the following example.
+Left and right are relative with respect to the line's direction.

+In order to add arrows indicating the momentum's direction to a propagator line,

+The key \blucol\verb!reversed momentum!\txcol draws the arrow in the reverse direction,
+and a prime changes the side on which the arrow appears, as above.
+FeynHand also offers the 3/6-letter shorthands \blucol\verb!mom!\txcol
+and \blucol\verb!revmom!\txcol.
+The momentum arrows \emph{do not} inherit the drawing style of the propagator line,

+\subsubsection{Crossing propagators (one on top of the other)}
+\label{sec:_feynmandiagrams_propagators_top}
+%
+\noindent
+Crossings often indicate that the propagators merely cross on paper
+without any physical interaction being implied.
+First, draw the propagator line to become crossed/interrupted,
+then draw the crossing propagator on top of it by specifying
+the additional style key \blucol\verb$top$\txcol.
+For more intricate networks of crossing propagators, you can place auxiliary vertices
+to break the propagators into parts if necessary,
+and then place the respective parts on top of each other.
+
+If due to the crossings you wish to move the arrows of charged particles,
+specify \blucol\verb$with arrow=VALUE$\txcol,
+respectively \blucol\verb$with reversed arrow=VALUE$\txcol for antiparticles.
+\blucol\verb$VALUE$\txcol must be a number between 0 and 1,
+and indicates the fraction of propagator length at which TikZ inserts the arrow.
+The default value of \blucol\verb$VALUE$\txcol is 0.5.

+\subsection{Customizing styles}
+\label{sec:_feynmandiagrams_customizing}
+%
+FeynHand provides the following shortcuts for quickly modifying styles.
+Note that any change of these lengths at some point in the code
+affects all diagrams that come after this point.
+Also recall that if you externalize graphics (see Sec.~\ref{Apx_tikzbasics_externalize}),
+then TikZ refreshes pictures \emph{only} when their source code is changed.
+Hence to see the effect of such length changes,
+delete the external PDF-files or use \vercol\verb$\tikzset{external/force remake}$\txcol.
+%
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item
+ \vercol\verb$\setlength{\feynhanddotsize}{2mm}$\txcol
+ sets the diameter of the dots to 2mm (default: 1.5mm).
+ %
+ \item
+ \vercol\verb$\setlength{\feynhandblobsize}{10mm}$\txcol
+ sets the diameter of the blobs to 10mm (default: 7.5mm).
+ %
+ \item
+ \vercol\verb$\setlength{\feynhandlinesize}{2pt}$\txcol
+ sets the thickness of the propagator lines to 2pt (default: 0.5pt).\\
+ Also the lines of dots and blobs use this thickness.\\
+ The momentum arrows' line thickness scales as 0.64 times this value.
+ Also the amplitudes\\
+ and section lengths of the boson and photon waves
+ and of the gluon curls scale with this value.
+ %
+ \item
+ \vercol\verb$\setlength{\feynhandarrowsize}{8pt}$\txcol
+ sets the size of the arrows to 8pt (default: 6pt)\\
+ on all charged propagator lines
+ \vercol\verb$(fer, antfer, chabos, antbos, chasca, antsca, chagho, antgho)$\txcol\\
+ and majorana lines \vercol\verb$(maj, antmaj).$\txcol
+ The momentum arrows' tip size scales as 0.8 times this value.
+ %
+ \item
+ \vercol\verb$\setlength{\feynhandtopsep}{8pt}$\txcol
+ sets the width of the crossing gap for propagators on top of each other.
+ The default value is \vercol\verb$18\feynhandlinesize$\txcol.
+ %
+ \item
+ \vercol\verb$\renewcommand{\feynhandtopsepcolor}{yellow}$\txcol
+ sets the color of the crossing gap (default is white).

+\section{TikZ Basics}
+\label{Apx_tikzbasics}
+%
+This appendix summarizes a few things that can be done with TikZ,
+just enough for getting started quickly.\\
+You can discover much more, and I recommend
+becoming familiar with the TikZ/PGF Manual \cite{tikz} bit by bit.
+
+% =====================================================================
+\subsection{Environment}
+\label{Apx_tikzbasics_environment}
+%
+\noindent
+All TikZ commands are used within the
+\brocol\verb$tikzpicture$\txcol environment.
+All TikZ commands that we mention are understood
+as appearing in this environment.
+When we want to use captions and labels, we enclose it in the
+\brocol\verb$figure$\txcol environment, but it can be called
+anywhere in the text or math of a Tex document:\\
+
+\noindent
+\begin{minipage}{0.6\linewidth}
+\brocol\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{figure}
+ \centering
+%\tikzset{external/force remake}
+ \begin{tikzpicture}
+
+ ... TikZ commands ...
+
+ \end{tikzpicture}
+ \caption{A diagram drawn with TikZ.}
+ \label{Fig:_diagram1}
+\end{figure}
+\end{verbatim}\txcol
+\end{minipage}
+%
+\begin{minipage}{0.39\linewidth}
+\brocol\begin{verbatim}
+\begin{align*}
+ \int dx\; f(x) =
+ \alpha
+%\tikzset{external/force remake}
+ \begin{tikzpicture}
+
+ ... TikZ commands ...
+
+ \end{tikzpicture}
+\end{align*}
+\end{verbatim}\txcol
+\end{minipage}
+%
+% =====================================================================
+\subsection{Layers}
+\label{Apx_tikzbasics_layers}
+%
+\noindent
+In general, objects that are drawn later in the code appear
+on top of objects that are drawn earlier (if they overlap).
+If we need to declare explicitly which objects
+we want to appear on top of other objects,
+then we can use layers.
+
+Layers are first declared with \brocol\verb$\pgfdeclarelayer$\txcol
+as in the following example, and then their order is set up
+from backmost to foremost with \brocol\verb$\pgfsetlayers$\txcol.
+The layer \brocol\verb$main$\txcol is predefined and does not need
+to be declared, but it must always be included in the order setup,
+for example:
+%
+\brocol\begin{verbatim}
+\pgfdeclarelayer{background}
+\pgfdeclarelayer{foreground}
+\pgfsetlayers{background,main,foreground}
+\end{verbatim}\txcol
+%
+All drawing commands by default are placed on the layer
+\brocol\verb$main$\txcol.
+For placing them on other layers, they must be enclosed in the
+\brocol\verb$\pgfonlayer$\txcol environment as in the following example
+(the \brocol\verb$opacity$\txcol option is optional).\\
+
+\noindent
+\begin{minipage}{0.83\linewidth}
+\brocol\begin{verbatim}
+ \begin{pgfonlayer}{foreground}
+ \filldraw[fill=Orange, draw=Red, opacity=0.7] (1,0) circle [radius=6mm];
+ \end{pgfonlayer}
+ \filldraw[fill=Blue, draw=black] (1,0) circle [radius=9mm];
+\end{verbatim}\txcol
+\end{minipage}
+%
+\begin{minipage}{0.16\linewidth}

+%\tikzset{external/force remake}
+\begin{tikzpicture}
+ \pgfdeclarelayer{foreground}
+ \pgfsetlayers{main,foreground}
+ \begin{pgfonlayer}{foreground}
+ \filldraw[fill=Orange,draw=Red, opacity=0.7] (1,0) circle [radius=6mm];
+ \end{pgfonlayer}
+ \filldraw[fill=Yellow,draw=black] (0,0) circle [radius=8mm];
+\end{tikzpicture}
+\end{minipage}
+%
+% =====================================================================
+\subsection{Drawing objects}
+\label{Apx_tikzbasics_drawing}
+%
+\noindent
+All drawing commands must end with a \;;\; (semicolon).
+%
+% =====================================================================
+\subsubsection{Text and formulas}
+%
+\noindent
+Plain text and LaTex math formulas can be inserted anywhere
+in the graphic with TikZ' \brocol\verb$node$\txcol command.
+The text is centered at the node's coordinates:\\
+
+\noindent
+\begin{minipage}{0.83\linewidth}
+\brocol\begin{verbatim}
+ \filldraw[fill=Yellow, draw=Red] (0,0) circle [radius=1cm];
+ \node at (-0.8,-0.3) {\textcolor{Blue}{\bfseries Yes! $\alpha^2$}};
+\end{verbatim}\txcol
+\end{minipage}
+%

+%\tikzset{external/force remake}
+\begin{tikzpicture}
+ \filldraw[fill=Yellow, draw=Red] (0,0) circle [radius=1cm];
+ \node at (-0.8,-0.3) {\textcolor{Blue}{\bfseries Yes! $\alpha^2$}};
+\end{tikzpicture}
+\end{minipage}
+%
+%
+% =====================================================================
+\subsubsection{Lines: straight and smooth}
+%
+\noindent
+A straight line from node (a) to node (b) is drawn by\\
+
+\noindent
+\begin{minipage}{0.83\linewidth}
+\brocol\begin{verbatim}
+ \draw [Red, line width = 2pt] (a1) to (a2);
+ \draw (b1) to [Blue] (b2);
+\end{verbatim}\txcol
+\end{minipage}
+%
+\begin{minipage}{0.16\linewidth}

+ \draw [Red, line width = 2pt] (a1) to (a2);
+ \draw (b1) to [Blue] (b2);
+\end{tikzpicture}
+\end{minipage}
+%
+A smooth curve which leaves (a) at an angle of 45 degrees
+and enters (b) at 180 degrees is drawn by\\
+
+\noindent
+\begin{minipage}{0.83\linewidth}
+\brocol\begin{verbatim}
+ \draw [Green, line width=1mm] (a1) to [out=45, in=180] (a2);

+\\
+\noindent
+The angles are with respect to the coordinate system, that is:
+0 degrees points right, 90 up, 180 left and 270 down.
+%
+%
+% =====================================================================
+\subsubsection{Lines with arrows}
+%
+Lines can be equipped with arrows by specifying this
+in the options of \brocol\verb$\draw$\txcol as inthe examples below.
+The most basic arrow styles are:
+\brocol\verb$>, Latex, Stealth, Circle, Bar$\txcol.
+Note the extra curly braces!\\

+\subsection{Externalizing graphics}
+\label{Apx_tikzbasics_externalize}
+%
+\noindent
+Externalizing means that TikZ creates a separate PDF file
+for each \brocol\verb$tikzpicture$\txcol environment
+which it encounters in the document.
+That is, when a \brocol\verb$tikzpicture$\txcol is encountered,
+TikZ checks whether there is already a corresponding PDF,
+and if so, then it includes this PDF with \brocol\verb$\includegraphics$\txcol
+and ignores the code in the \brocol\verb$tikzpicture$\txcol,
+else it creates the corresponding PDF such that it can be used
+in the next LaTex run.
+Using the external PDFs can speed up the LaTex runs significantly.
+TikZ also takes care of vertically positioning the externalized PDFs
+according to the \brocol\verb$baseline$\txcol option
+when it is used with \brocol\verb$tikzpicture$\txcol
+(this is what the .dpth files are for).
+TikZ recognizes automatically when the TikZ code of a graphic has been modified,
+and generates fresh PDFs \emph{only} for these modified graphics in the next LaTex run.
+
+In order to activate externalizing, we need to load the library with
+\brocol\verb$\usetikzlibrary{external}$\txcol
+(which both TikZ-Feynman and FeynHand do automatically)
+and put a \brocol\verb$\tikzexternalize[prefix=graphics/tikz/]$\txcol
+somewhere above the \brocol\verb$\begin{document}$\txcol command.
+Here, we use the \brocol\verb$prefix$\txcol option
+for telling TikZ that we want the external files to be created
+in the subdirectory \brocol\verb$graphics/tikz/$\txcol of the current dirctory.
+It may come in handy to have the TikZ-generated files
+in a subfolder separate from the other external graphic files.
+For example, in order to assure that the final document contains
+the final version of all graphics, we can force TikZ to refresh them
+by deleting all external PDFs created by TikZ.
+Having these in the separate subfolder avoids deleting graphics from other sources.
+Alternatively, we can include \brocol\verb$\tikzset{external/force remake}$\txcol
+in the document's preamble to force refresh all external PDFs.
+Including \brocol\verb$\tikzset{external/force remake}$\txcol
+in a local Tex group force refreshes all external PDFs in this group
+(e.g.~an equation, figure or minipage environment).
+
+We also have to tell LaTex to use shell escaping
+in order to enable it to create the external files.
+TexLive ships with the TexWorks editor, in which this can be achieved
+by going to the Edit menu and selecting Preferences.
+Next choose the Typesetting rider, select PdfLatex in
+the Processing Tools window, and add the argument
+-shell-escape by clicking on the + button.
+Then, move it to the top of the list by clicking on the up-arrow button.
+This should look somewhat like Figure~\ref{Fig:_shell_escape}.
+%
+\begin{figure}
+ \centering
+ \includegraphics[width=0.75\linewidth]{shell_escape.jpg}
+ \caption{TexWorks screenshot.}
+ \label{Fig:_shell_escape}
+\end{figure}
+
+TikZ creates filenames automatically for the externalized PDFs.
+For later use of these, it is often preferrable
+to specify these filenames by hand with the
+\brocol\verb$\tikzsetnextfilename$\txcol command,
+which needs to be placed right above
+the \brocol\verb$\begin{tikzpicture}$\txcol
+of the corresponding graphic.
+For example, \brocol\verb$\tikzsetnextfilename{scatter}$\txcol
+tells TikZ to store the next graphic as \brocol\verb$scatter.pdf$\txcol
+
+Apart from speeding up LaTex runs, the external files can also be used
+for submissions to journals which do not support TikZ.
+One way of doing this works without modifying the graphics' code:
+Instead of \brocol\verb$\usepackage{tikz}$\txcol
+respectively \brocol\verb$\usepackage{feynhand}$\txcol
+we put \brocol\verb$\usepackage{tikzexternal}$\txcol
+and include the file \brocol\verb$tikzexternal.sty$\txcol
+in our submissions. It basically tells LaTex to ignore
+the code in the \brocol\verb$tikzpicture$\txcol environments
+and to use the external PDFs instead.
+%
+If this does not work, then another way is to replace the figures'
+\brocol\verb$tikzpicture$\txcol environments by
+\brocol\verb$\includegraphics{tikz/filename.pdf}$\txcol
+and the equations' \brocol\verb$tikzpicture$\txcol environments
+by \brocol\verb$\vcenterbox{\includegraphics{tikz/filename.pdf}}$\txcol
+commands, having defined in the preamble:
+%
+\brocol
+\begin{verbatim}
+ \graphicspath{{graphics/}} % mind the double brackets!
+ \newcommand{\vcenterbox}[2][0.5]{\raisebox{-#1\height}{#2}}
+ % \vcenterbox centers the box's content (argument #2) vertically on the baseline.
+ % The optional argument #1 is for fine adjustment:
+ % values between 0 and 0.5 raise the box's center above the baseline,
+ % values between 0.5 and 1 push the box's center below the baseline.
+\end{verbatim}
