- Padded right/left margins to decrease line length based on research into general typographic standards. - Shrunk linespacing to decrease line-spacing to bring this in line with general typographic standards. - Added comments explaining the changes and basic typographic decisions. - Renamed some variables to make it more clear about the relationships between pagestyles. - Added the vc-git and vc-awk scripts into the repository so folks don't have to go hunting for them. - Made VC stuff generated by default in Makefile. - Increased the amount of sample text so we can actually see the effects on full pages of text.
================================ === LaTeX Custom Scripts ====== ================================ Copyright (c) 2009 Benjamin Mako Hill <mako@atdot.cc> This repository contains LaTeX configuration files that I use to format my papers. They are all released under the GNU GPL version 3 or later. The latest version can be found at: http://mako.cc/scripts/ As scripts and configuration files, I do not "release" these files. You can always check out the latest version with Git with the following command: git clone http://projects.mako.cc/source/latex_mako/.git Bug reports, comments, questions, and patches can all be directed to: Benjamin Mako Hill <mako@atdot.cc> The paper template has seen quite a lot of recent work. The letter template has seen very little and may only barely function. ================================ === Dependencies =============== ================================ If you are running Debian or Ubuntu, you will first need to install the following packages: * rubber * texlive-latex-recommended * texlive-fonts-extra * texlive-fonts-recommended * texlive-bibtex-extra You can do so with the following command: apt-get install rubber texlive-latex-recommended \ texlive-fonts-extra texlive-fonts-recommended \ texlive-bibtex-extra I don't know the details of setting up these LaTeX files to work with on systems other than Debian or Ubuntu but imagine it will involve installing a full TeX Live distribution. In my templates, I make extensive use of the following Garamond font: http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/urw/garamond/
