Yay! Today I marked the 1000th line of cstexec.sty (my first "authentic" package, not that tedious LyXbasic) and I feel like this, although I know my knowledge on the matter is still infinitesimally small
@egreg: Could you please have a look to guitex.org/home/it/forum/12-tipografia/…? The problem seem to be solved, however the solution is just a workaround. I can only guess which is the cause. Thanks :)
@JaDogg because somehow (and that's maybe the true burden) the problem is not well-defined: what should you do if a single word is emphasized in the original text, but it's not clear which word in the new text corresponds to it?
No the thing was I found a German tex file, But the user also wrote comments in German, That was my first time trying LaTeX, and in the end I just gave up writing.
soon I might need to write an SRS in LaTeX, So I decided to familiarize my self with the Chat Room and active users in case I need some help :D
@Johannes_B The options for achemso as a package are meant to be as \setkeys{acs}{...}. They are not load time options as that would be the wrong place to set them.
@Johannes_B Class options are a bit different: it makes logical sense to set the style for the doc as a whole. For a package, option clashes are possible and so I tend to favour only setting in the document.
@JosephWright interesting point of view. However, have you considered \newcommand\setacs{\setkeys{acs}} to hide the underlying level? I would feel a bit strange using keyval's macros to set up a package I use...
Hypothetical dialogue follows.
Dear <insert subject name here>,
I would like to spend a few minutes talking about something cool. In fact, it's not just cool. It's amazingly cool. It's not "Albert Einstein playing guitar" cool, neither "Abraham Lincoln riding a bear with a machine gun" cool, it...
@tohecz The package is really there mainly as it's possible to do, while the class is the main aim of the bundle. For the latter, ideally people should just be picking a target journal.
As a TUG member myself, this question does not strictly apply to me. But, I was reading some pages on the TUG website and noticed the following benefit of our institutional membership:
In addition, institutions may have site-wide electronic access to the members area, without needing accounts...
@JosephWright I understand. But I saw that benefit listed and if there is any way our users can get that benefit, I think it should be made possible. But I also understand that it might not be possible. Either way, barbara commented that it's being discussed, so we'll get a response at some point.
@JosephWright indeed. I hope it doesn't seem that I'm saying we should or are entitled to have access to it. I more asked the question to see if it was possible for us to have access. Should I make an edit to this effect?
@PaulGessler: I read (and upvoted) your question (;-)), but what is the benefit of being a TUG member at all (now I expect some stones or 16ton weights thrown at me ;-)) I am member of DANTE only, but why should I be in TUG? (Ok I could read on their web page, of course)
Noob here. I'm trying to install an individual package, not included in TeXLive, on my Mac. I've read tex.stackexchange.com/questions/73016/… but still don't have a clear picture of what I need to do.
Now I just have to deal with the minor frustration that this package, newicktree, appears not to be compatible with pdflatex . . . something to do with EPS graphics from PSTricks. I'm planning to make compiling a little less labor intensive with a Makefile that'll take care of .tex -> .dvi -> .ps -> .pdf, unless someone here has a better idea.
@WillHunting: I didn't even know that latexmk existed, but I'm looking at its man page now!
Hmm, apparently I need to dig deeper into the latexmk man page. latexmk -pdf calls pdflatex, which won't work. I'm pretty sure that this has to go tex -> dvi -> ps -> pdf.
Someone told me "You can configure latexmk in 0.2.3 in texworks". How, please?
(I need it so that compilation is done properly for bibligraphies.)
I'm in Debian 6 and using TexLive.
@henry I was a bit cofused when reading your edit. To clarify, you don't need to add the Word code/Code. Indenting the lines by marking and pressing ctrl + K does the job.
@Johannes_B the standard 4-char indent (or using the shortcut/button) does not work there because Markdown recognizes it as inside a list. You need another set of indentation (8-char instead of 4) to get a code block in that situation.
@Johannes_B or end the list by typing some other text (as @henry did in his edit)
kieranhealy.org/files/misc/workflow-apps.pdf Interesting read. It's been up on my desktop all day; don't know where it came from (probably somewhere around here); thought I'd share it here. (It also conveniently bookmarks it for my home computer ;))
@Gregory Oh, goodness you don't have to compile the documentation!!
You should just be able to run texdoc arara in your terminal. (OSX: spotlight terminal; Windows: Windows+R "texdoc arara"). If all else fails, use texdoc.net.
