# LaTeX

This repository contains an assortment of LaTeX code which I use or have used.

Although I try and keep everything documented, some of it is only documented

within the code while some other parts have a more fully fledged documentation.

A brief summary of each file contained here is listed below.

Unless otherwise stated, all code is licensed under GPLv3.

## [.latexmkrc](.latexmkrc)

LaTeX usually requires multiple compilation runs before the final output is

ready.  This is further exacerbated if the main document has an index, a

bibliography, a glossary, ... as they require additional programs to be run.

Fortunately, there are several tools out there which automate the compilation of

a LaTeX file, on of them is [`latexmk`](http://ctan.org/pkg/latexmk).  The

[`.latexmkrc`](.latexmkrc) file included is configured to use LuaLaTeX and has support for

PGF/Ti*k*Z' `external` library.

In order to the [`.latexmkrc`](.latexmkrc) file, simply copy it into the root

directory of your LaTeX file and call

```

latexmk filename

```

## Thesis Class ([.cls](thesis.cls), [.tex](thesis.tex), [PDF](../../raw/master/thesis.pdf))

The file [`thesis.cls`](thesis.cls) is a class dedicated for theses.  It was

created while I was writing my masters.  The corresponding

file [`thesis.tex`](thesis.tex) ([PDF](../../raw/master/thesis.pdf)) documents

all the options provided by the class file in the same format as a thesis.

## Example ([.tex](example.tex), [PDF](../../raw/master/example.pdf))

Provides an example document with a fully fleshed out (and documented) preamble.

It also contains a few useful hints to get started with LaTeX.  This is the

preamble I'll use for various documents (albeit, with unnecessary packages

commented out).

## [jpellis.sty](jpellis.sty)

This style file contains an assortment of commands which I find useful.  It can

be used by called `\usepackage{jpellis}` provided

that [`jpellis.sty`](jpellis.sty) is in the same directory as the (master)

`.tex` file.

The package is not (yet) documented, though the source code should have enough

information.

## PGFPlots Default ([.tex](pgfplots.default.tex))

Although most of the default settings

for [PGFPlots](http://ctan.org/pkg/pgfplots) are quite good, there are some

further customization which I like.
