This is version 2.0e[2006/11/18] of the refman class family for LaTeX2e
Refman is based on classes.dtx (1.4a) and the Refman.sty version 1.1.
This new class is a class by it's own and no style-option.
I've made this change to support some things which would have
been difficult with a style-option.
The new class consists of
refart.cls an article-like style (former refman-s)
refrep.cls a report-like style (former refman)
There is only a little difference between refart and refrep:
Refrep supports chapters, has a titlepage by default and uses
chaptermark and sectionmark in footings and headings.
Refrep supports \pageperchapter
Refart supports an optional titlepage and uses sectionmark
and subsectionmark in footings and headings.
Changes:
========
Both classes support different papersizes in the same way as the
original LaTeX2e-classes, including the landscape option.
There is a new option to produce a square-layout.
The pagelayout is not 100% compatible to refman.sty due to the
multiple-papersize-support.
The running head and foot is not compatible to refman.sty.
I've changed the footnote-layout since a not indended footnote-
layout fits better to a not indended textlayout. (There have been lots of
fixed for the footnote layout, seems to be a reall problem.)
I've tried to support an index-environment.
The index is set in twocolumn-layout.
The maketitle-command sets title *and* autor *and* date. If you
don't want the date use \date{} before calling \maketitle.
I've followed the example of Markus Kohm and renamed the classes
to refart.cls and refrep.cls. Thus it is easier to remember what is
what and it can't be confused with refman.sty
Obsolete commands:
==================
The command setleftmarginwidth is no longer supported. There is no
use setting the leftmargin to a fixed value if you don't know
the fullwidth. (See new commands)
The makeauthor is no longer supported, this is done by maketitle.
New commands (not in refman.sty v. 1.1)
=======================================
There are some commands I consider usefull in a reference
manual style:
\pageperchapter
This will give you new pagenumbers each chapter,
looking like 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, 2-1 ...
Prefacepages will be numberer 1,2,3 since 0-1 is not desireable.
The pagepc-package will implement this for the LaTeX-standard
classes. (This is still experimental and does not work well
with MakeIndex)
A hack to make MakeIndex happy is included, but sadly MakeIndex
can no longer use the "|" command anymore since it is used to
format the indexentries.
\settextfraction{fraction}
This will reset the horizontal layout, giving you a textwidth
of fraction*fullwidth. The restriction to lines with 60-70 chars has
been removed.
Both commands should only be used in the preamble.
A new option smallborder has been introduced. It reduces the border
around the page from 1 in to 0.25 in (1/4 in for users in the USA). This
will reduce the amout of screen area wasted when preparing online
documentation. Since the result are rather long lines, you should use this
only with smaller papersizes, like a5paper.
History:
========
1.9 a Included redefinition of pagestyle{plain} for twoside printing
1.9 b Refman now works with LaTeX2e [1994/06/01] and is in sync
with classes 1.2 s
1.9 c Fixed refman: There should be an opening { in markright
(every pagestyle, except for plain and empty)
Moved changing of topmargin inside ps definition
1.9 d Fixed the pagestyles for oneside printing
Changed chapter layout (uses fullwidth now)
Changed typeout to ClassError where needed
1.9 e Renamed refman to refrep and refman-s to refart.
Cleaned up fullwidth-environment, now it works on
even-sides too:-)
Added \pageperchapter to refrep.cls
Added \settextfraction
Removed ref{10|11|12}.clo. Refman is now using the
size{10|11|12}.clo files.
1.9 f Synced with classes.dtx v. 1.2x
Ref{art,rep} needs now LaTeX2e[1994/12/01]
Pagestyle plain does not center the pagenumber, it is
always printed at the outside-margin.
Documentation added (layout.tex layout2.tex)
1.9 g Final test release synced with LaTeX2e[1995/06/01]
(Classes.dtx v.1.3e)
Pagestyle plain did center the pagenumber in one-side
documents, fixed it this time.
Fixed fullpage-environment to reset leftmarginwidth and
set hsize to the correct value. (You may now start a new
chapter inside a fullpage environment.(Not encouraged))
Made settextfraction an onlypreamble-command.
Changed the \pageperchapter-command and included pagepc.sty
which can be used with other LaTeX2e-classes (like report
and scrreprt) In pageperchapter-mode, the index will be in
a chapter of it's own and no longer belong to the last
appendix.
1.9 h Corrected some typos where the a in normalfont was missing
Added my e-mail address to the dtx-file, so bug reports can
reach me faster. Corrected typo in condbreak (There is seems to
be at least one user who uses it)
Synced with classes 1.3p, thus saving some memory.
1.9 i Corrected footnote in titlepage (refart only)
Removed . after the chapternumber.
Changed format of chapter-title. It now hangs after the
chapter number.
1.9 k Corrected appendix in refrep. Now the chapter-counter is used
to generate the chapter-number
1.9 l Again fixes to to the footnote-layout of refart. Now titlepage
and normal text use the same code.
1.9 m Added a forgotten \ to listfigurename
2.0 Synced with Classes 1.3u
2.0a Added missing \renewcommand\thetable in refrep
2.0b Added english documentation, changed layout of footnote again
(Added more space between footnotesymbol and text) Changed the
footnote layout on the titlepage to be compatible with the
footnotelayout used within the class.
2.0c Changed the licence to "LaTeX Project Public License"
Fixed some typos in the documentation
\attention now takes an optional argument
Added \attentionsymbol to allow the use of different symbols for the
\attention command
Added the manfnt package to access symbols from the manfnt font
The manfnt package has been removed from refman. it is now a package
of it's own. No other file has changed, the version number is
unchanged.
2.0d Fixed a typo using the wrong penalty, updated e-mail address.
2.0e Fixed many typos in the documentation, added option smallborder
Changed calculation of textheight and textwidth, please report
errors.
Added option dvips, pdftex and pagesize to export the pagesize.
Changes pagestyle for titlepage to empty since plain does not work
with pagestyle{headings}. No longer change the pagestyle for the
index.
