rlm@421 | 1 This file includes the basic commands you will need to use within each |
rlm@421 | 2 chapter of your thesis. |
rlm@421 | 3 |
rlm@421 | 4 The file chap1.tex is a sample first chapter. To get started, you may |
rlm@421 | 5 just want to replace the text and commands in that file as needed. In |
rlm@421 | 6 general though, for each new chapter you want to do the following: |
rlm@421 | 7 |
rlm@421 | 8 o Make sure the name has the extension .tex . Otherwise, you |
rlm@421 | 9 can call it anything you want. For ease of use, all the |
rlm@421 | 10 examples use chap1, chap2, etc. |
rlm@421 | 11 |
rlm@421 | 12 o Add a line to the file main.tex that reads: |
rlm@421 | 13 |
rlm@421 | 14 \include{yourfilename} |
rlm@421 | 15 |
rlm@421 | 16 This should not include the .tex extension, because latex |
rlm@421 | 17 assumes that is there. |
rlm@421 | 18 |
rlm@421 | 19 Basic syntax: |
rlm@421 | 20 |
rlm@421 | 21 o The first line of each chapter should be: |
rlm@421 | 22 |
rlm@421 | 23 \chapter{Chapter Title} |
rlm@421 | 24 |
rlm@421 | 25 o To start a new section (labeled chap#.sec# -- as in 1.1, |
rlm@421 | 26 1.2, etc): |
rlm@421 | 27 |
rlm@421 | 28 \section{Section Heading} |
rlm@421 | 29 |
rlm@421 | 30 You can also include subsections: |
rlm@421 | 31 |
rlm@421 | 32 \subsection{Heading} |
rlm@421 | 33 |
rlm@421 | 34 |
