This is a literate programming format. To get the materials that +LaTeX needs, such as the .cls file, you should run LaTeX on these. + +First, run LaTeX on ucdavisthesis.ins. If you are using a terminal, +you can type at the command prompt: latex ucdavisthesis.ins (or +pdflatex ucdavisthesis.ins). If you are using a front-end like WinEdt, +load/open ucdavisthesis.ins and click on whatever button you use to +LaTeX your documents (don't use TeXify). This will create the files +containing the package code; ucdavisthesis.cls, ucdthesis10.clo, +ucdthesis11.clo, ucdthesis12.clo, ucdthesis13.clo. If the .ins file +doesn't succeed in moving the files to the correct location, they will +need to be put in an appropriate directory such as +\Local TeX Files\tex\latex\ucdavisthesis +or whatever you use for a local tex directory. + +Finally, if you did not download the documentation (ucdavisthesis.pdf), +you can produce the package documentation by running LaTeX on the +ucdavisthesis.dtx file. As above, at a terminal you would enter +latex ucdavisthesis.dtx (or pdflatex ucdavisthesis.dtx), while from +a front-end you would load/open ucdavisthesis.dtx and click on the +appropriate button. This will create ucdavisthesis.dvi (or +ucdavisthesis.pdf). Note, it is tricky to create correctly formatted +cross references (index) in the documentation, so I recommend that you +just use the precompiled version. + +Please see http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=install-unpack +for more installation help. + + + -- cgit v1.2.3
