# refcard

A reference card class for LaTeX2e.

According to [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheat_sheet), 

a cheat sheet is a concise set of notes used for quick reference.

Some might even call it a [reference card or sheet](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_card), 

hence the name.

This small class is aimed to make the typesetting of 

reference cards a bit less tedious, so you can focus on using them.

The class is inspired from the question and answer 

[Document Class for Reference Cards](https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/99765).

Since `refcard` is based on `article` most options can be passed on.

## Additional Options

  * `columns=`    How many columns, default is 3.

  * `margin=` Passed to `geometry`, default 1 cm.

## Disabled Options

  * `portrait`   only supports `landscape`; ignored, warning.

  * `titlepage`  saving space, so no title page; ignored, warning.

  * `twocolumn`  class uses `multicol`; break, error.

## Features

  * Dense settings to save maximum space.

  * No enumeration of (sub)sections.

  * Customised itemise environments.
