This directory contains a basic "thesis" formatted using the
gatech-thesis.cls.  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). 


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>/bibtex/bst/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis.bst

This example only requires two additional style files, which are 
both part of the base latex distribution, so that shouldn't be
a problem.  These packages are:

   graphicx  -- this is a 'standard' package; you should already have it
   color     -- ditto

Then, make sure that latex & friends are in your path, and run the DO_*.sh
scripts (or the DO_*.bat files).

For a more complicated example of what is possible, and a demonstration
of the new add-on style files for glossaries and indices, see the
sibling `bellswhistles' example.
