This is the README file for the clthesis class. Please read the license information at the end of this file. PURPOSE The clthesis class can be used to format a thesis or dissertation according to the guidelines issued by the Graduate School. INSTALLATION To install the clthesis package you need: clthesis.ins clthesis.dtx docstrip.tex (part of the standard LaTeX2e distribution) (I think you need at least version 2.4g) Run LaTeX on the file clthesis.ins to strip the comments from clthesis.dtx and produce the class files clthesis.cls, the sample file clsample.tex and the documentation driver clthesis.drv. Put clthesis.cls somewhere LaTeX can see it and run LaTeX on clsample.tex if you want. DOCUMENTATION To produce the documentation you also need: ltxdoc.cls (part of the standard LaTeX2e distribution) url.sty (part of almost all LaTeX2e distributions) doc.sty (part of the standard LaTeX2e distribution) If you want the standard documentation, run LaTeX on clthesis.dtx. If you want a more detailed documentation with the code and an index, use clthesis.drv and modify it according to the following notes. To get documentation of the code, put a percent sign in front of the \OnlyDescription. If that is not enough and you also want to have the documented code of the sample (which is not very interesting), remove the percent signs in front of the second definition of \EarlyFinale. If you additionally want to know about the change history, uncomment the indicated lines in clthesis.drv and use the following commands: latex clthesis.drv makeindex -s gglo.ist -o clthesis.gls clthesis.glo latex clthesis.drv Then the change history should appear at the end of the documentation. Note that this list is only complete if you include the code (see above). If you want to have an index of all the new and redefined macros and environments, uncomment the indicated lines and use the following commands: latex clthesis.drv makeindex -s gind.ist clthesis.idx latex clthesis.drv COPYING AND MODIFICATION Copyright 1998-1999 Bernd Schandl The clthesis package consists of the following files: README Instructions on installation and documentation. clthesis.ins The installation driver. clthesis.dtx The documentation and the documented source code.
