Input Files
testpoints.tex was written by, I think, Blaik Matthews. I wrote
notestpoints.tex so that I could make
stuff like gateways without having to see "0 points" after every
new problem. testpoints.tex is a
must-have for any test writing. See "Teaching" below for the
files that use testpoints.tex. lauracode.tex
and lauracodePHD.tex are my personal input files (as of 2/99).
I don't neccessarily recommend them, but
some of the files in here require their use (mostly in a minimal, fixable
way). The keys *, **, &, and && in
what follows shows which files require which input files. Just
type \input{filename} at the beginning of
your TeX file to use any of them.
These do *not* use the Duke Ph.D. style file. Mostly these are
of interest because they use a really bad
commutative diagram hack, typeset some "real" math, and use labels/references
to some extent. thebigdiagram.tex
file uses landscape, and is really pretty. (ed. note: Laura
is VERY proud of this file. Compliment her on it after
you've looked at it.) It contains at least two typos/math errors...can
you find them?
To get these to work, "latex references.tex", then "bibtex references.aux",
then "latex references.tex" two
more times. The resulting .dvi file should be a references list.
Templates
These are "empty" templates you can use to create tests, calendars, etc. calendarshell.tex requires you
to type your entries in the table format provided; calendartemplate.tex and calendartemplateL.tex
make you type your entries into some initial definitions from which the final table is generated. All
the calendars need the landscape option when you run dvips to create the .ps files. That is, you need to type "dvips -t landscape calendarshell.dvi", and so forth. (ed. note: graph.eps is available from the template page.)
There is also a nice Duke letterhead style, though it is not used in
these files (the Duke style makes official
looking letterhead). telemarketers.tex is a normal letter in
the "letter" style; FOIA.tex does a sort of
"mail merge" - printing many letters to different addresses (with same
body).
The rest of the rest of the rest... CV.tex is what it appears
to be. bills.tex and billshell.tex generate "checklists"
for doing the monthly bills. bridge.tex is a series of tables
(some quite fancy, TeX-wise) explaining certain
bidding rules for bridge. bridge2.tex is the same thing, but
2-up, and requires landscape for dvips-ing.
texjob.tex is a very lengthy paper I typed for someone, but unfortunately
does not use the cross-referencing
and bibliography-making and \theoremstyle stuff. I didn't know
about that stuff when I LaTeXed the paper.
The paper was, however, accepted in that format by some journal (as-is,
I think).
