%% This is a class (.cls) file for LaTeX2e.

%% Author:      Norman R. Gall

%%              The University of Calgary

%% Feel free to copy, modify, and distribute.
%% I am interested in all changes you make.
%% Send changes to ngall@ucalgary.ca
%%
%% This file is based on the default article.cls file 
%%
%% General Notes:
%%
%% I have taken quite a few liberties in the template to cohere with 
%% idiosyncratic preferences in reading student's papers. I think that
%% while other instructors might be more liberal, there will be few who 
%% are more conservative in their requirements. 
%%
%% My purpose in writing this .cls is to provide students with a single 
%% straightforward template from which to generate clear, clean, and 
%% simple papers that are easy to read and identify by instructors.
%%
%%
%% I have assumed onecolumn and onepage. In my experience, no one likes to 
%% see columned or duplex papers.

%					
% - Command Notes ------------------------------
%
% new commands:	\studentnumber, \college, \coursename, \coursenumber, 
% 			    \coursesection, \instructor
%
% All of these commands go in the preamble and are pretty 
% straightforward. You use them just like the \author
% command. I have smart-assed defaults programmed, so you'd better 
% remember to insert your own values.
%
% I have included these as these are what I want to see on each and every 
% paper I receive. If there are other items that you might find helpful, 
% e-mail the suggestion.
%
% Page Styles
%
%	\pagestyle{headings} and pagestyle{plain} work as per article.cls 
%    except that 
%			a) when using titlepage, there is no page number printed on 
%               the title page and the title page is not counted.
%			b) when not using titlepage, there is no page number printed 
%               on the first page but it is counted.
%			c) when using titlepage and there is an abstract, there is no 
%               page number printed on the title page or the abstract page 
%               and neither the title page nor abstract page is counted.
%			d) when not using titlepage and there is an abstract, there 
%               is no page number printed on the first page but it is 
%               counted. The abstract is inserted immediately after the 
%               title matter.
%
%	\pagestyle{myheadings) works as above except it has the marks shifted 
%    to the right for clarity so that students can place their name on 
%    each page, if required
%
% Abstract
% 
% Some disciplines regularly use the abstract in papers, so I have dealt 
% with it. If you use the titlepage option and included the abstract right 
% after the title material, the abstract will be placed on a second page 
% by itself after the titlepage. The main body will then begin on the next
% page, with page numbering beginning there.
%
% Draft and Final Modes
% 
% The draft and final options actually do something other than show you 
% line overruns. The draft option single spaces everything and gives you 
% slightly smaller margins. The final option gives you wider margins (for
% comments---students never leave enough room for instructor marginalia), 
% and double spaces everything except the abstract, quotations, quotes, 
% verses, and footnotes. None of these things should be double-spaced in a 
% final paper, in my view. The bibliography (`References' has been 
% renamed) will be double spaced. You can use a \spacing{1} before your 
% \bibliography command to change that behaviour.
%
% There is also an \epigraph command at the end, if you are into that sort 
% of thing in your papers.
