@PauloCereda I used a 15" for a year (from my employer). At the end of the year, when I bought one, I was quite definite: 12". In ever want to lug something that awkward around again :-). I know they are lighter now, but it was not just the weight but the bulkiness more generally. I realise my perspective is not a popular one, just from looking at what people sell.
@AlanMunn Sorry. I've finished for now. You don't know what the difference between an Intel SSD and an otherwise identical (presumably non-Intel) one is, do you? Just on the off-chance.
@AlanMunn What's seg? Do you have an example? What's the ##1 meant to do? If you want the argument, you'd need #1. Or you might want content/.wrap value?
But I guess you already figured that out. Sašo says I overuse where/if constructs. :(
@AlanMunn Do you have a minute to test the code I give in this answer? The OP says it produces the same error as in the original question, but I just double-checked and it compiles fine for me. Would appreciate a third opinion.
You can work around this, without turning Babel short-hands off globally, by patching an internal configuration macro. Note: this patches an internal macro. I strongly recommend emailing Forest's author with a link to this question as Sašo may have a safer alternative (or be willing to create ...
@Felix.C The counter secnumdepth stores the sectional level one wants to be numbered; sections are level 1, subsections 2, and so on. Chapters, where available, are level 0. So, in an article, \setcounter{secnumdepth}{0} will make no sectional level numbered.
@egreg If I replace the zero with a three I remark that Latex numbers my subsection, combined with what you said I guess, \setcounter{secnumdepth}{k} does number all levels including the k-th, so if I have no chapters k=0 will leave me free of enumerations, is that correct?
Back. With regard the issue we discussed yesterday, I narrowed even further the issue and described my problem in details on this question: https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/388592/66964
If anyone could check this out, this would be cool ;)
Hey another quick question guys, how can I make passages where some text has grey background like here on SO https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2642147/how-to-remove-files-and-directories-quickly-via-terminal-bash-shell
I'm new in LaTeX and I'm searching for solution to highlight verbatim text inside paragraph (for example, it is like on this page, where code is highlighted). Can anyone help me with this?
Let say, that I have a paragraph and inside is some words where I use \verb|| to show some code parts, but...
@Felix.C If the text may be split between lines in a paragraph, perhaps the soul package will help. Otherwise, the solution that @egreg pointed to is the simplest, I think.
@Felix.C Standard \verb in LaTeX has to be able to show all characters verbatim, including braces. So the argument to \verb has to be enclosed by a character that is not in the text you wish to show verbatim. Pick any character you like; the vertical bar is but one choice. The command notes which one you open with, and goes on in verbatim mode until it meets the second one. Caution: You cannot use \verb inside another command!
@Felix.C this lets me remember the questions I asked a few years ago :) https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/279653/66964 And that one still not fixed :-( https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/281029/66964
@barbarabeeton Nice touch that the DOI example on page 65 is Math.Scand. (they are located here at my department). I send the editor a link to the PDF and he notced it.
The question below reminds me: There are a great variety of arrows available, and I sometimes use some of them in my private notes. But as I have no idea how most arrows are used (except the plain right arrow, \mapsto, and the arrows for injective and/or surjective mappings whose LaTeX names elude me at the moment), I don't dare use these symbols in public. Is there a nice list somewhere, explaining some of the more common usages of things like squiggly arrows?
@HaraldHanche-Olsen I just went to mscand.dk and found it there. I've been adding the articles online for the last few year (that is my only involvement in the journal)
@daleif The copy of my paper at mscand.dk seems to be pixel for pixel the same as the one I found at Göttingen in 2004, so they have clearly worked out a deal.
@wget Hm. "not fixed" is imho not the right wording. You are asking for code and definitions for quite a number of features. That isn't done in a few minutes.
@CarLaTeX aahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahha dull??? I'm tired. I wash my home, I paint the railing, clean the floors to help my mom here is what I do instead of thinking about women :)))
i'm almost totally innocent of knowledge of how to use the expl3 syntax but i need to modify a couple of macros in a .sty file coded using that syntax. i'd rather do it outside the .sty file than by patching, if that's possible. will the patch mechanism work the same as with conventional latex definitions? if so, is it documented someplace i can access easily? (i'm awaiting feedback from the author of the package in question, but i'm being pressed for a speedier resolution.)
(cont'd) yes, i know i should create a "real" question, but that will take hours. knowing that an external patch is or isn't possible will get me on the way more quickly.
@barbarabeeton You are a bit contradicting yourself. Do you want to patch or not? In any case: there is not much difference in patching a command with @ in its name or a command with _ and :.
@UlrikeFischer -- sorry i wasn't clear. i have already modified the .sty file directly. what i want to do is make an "external" patch so that i won't be guilty of spreading around a package with unauthorized modifications. so if i can safely and effectively use a patch command in the preamble of the target document, that's what i'd prefer to do. anyhow, i think you have given me the answer i hoped for. thanks.
@samcarter No hurry! I believe that the mask is not really necessary -- the helmet and the black suit is such iconic that it is quite easy to recognize it. Of course, this is not easy to draw with TikZ, I think
@Sebastiano I'm never "hard" with you, you asked why your questions were not being answered or being downvoted and I tried to explain (again) why they are not good questions for the site, if you don't want to be told what might be wrong, don't ask what is wrong.
@DavidCarlisle My holidays were spent at home, at sea and clean. No room for me. And then where I live, there is also a totosbomb where bad and arrogant people turn away to say no more. I am confuse
%---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- % PART HEADINGS %----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
% numbered part in the table of contents \newcommand{\@mypartnumtocformat}[2]{% \setlength\fboxsep{0pt}% \noindent\colorbox{ocre!10}{\strut\parbox[c][.7cm]{\ecart}{\color{SandyBrown}\Large\sffamily\bfseries\centering#1}}\hskip\esp\colorbox{ocre!20}{\strut\parbox[c][.7cm]{\linewidth-\ecart-\esp}{\Large\sffamily\centering#2}}}%
@Sebastiano For God's sake, I have changed it already!!!! It's there and I've written it and 'emphasized' in my answer what I've done there. It's the silly \renewcommand{\thepart}{\arabic{part}} line!!!!
@ChristianHupfer to write in utf8 you'd need something like write\foo{\unexpanded{ some accenty text}} or use \protected@write which would write it as LICR so \"{o}
@DavidCarlisle: Hm strange: `\protected@write\foo{}{% Das ist ein schöner Text% }` Does not write anything to the file (of course I use \makeatletter...\makeatother)
@DavidCarlisle I think the \unexpanded version is perhaps the easier one since there might be situations where no typesetting is done in the document and nothing is shipped out then.
@Sebastiano you want to number the parts 1,2,3 but index them as i,ii,ii ? why?
@ChristianHupfer yes although of course if you have \def\foo{abc} it gets written out as \foo which might or might not be OK depending if \foo is defined at the point you read the file back
@Sebastiano I can not think of any circumstance where it would not be confusing to the reader to use a different number in the table of contents than the number form used in the heading in the docuement
@DavidCarlisle Actually this is preferred in my current strategy. The code should not be really expanded but reloaded later on, where \foo (your macro) might have a different meaning other than abc, perhaps is something like zzzz ;-)
@ChristianHupfer yes it can be better but I thought it worth mentioning that they are not directly comparable, although they both let you use those accent things
@DavidCarlisle Yes, thank you very much -- most times I use \"o rather rather than typing ö directly, but intending to provide package code one day I can not expect other users behaving badly like me there ;-)
@Sebastiano I don't buy this scheme -- it is full of inconsistent settings ...
@DavidCarlisle Thanks. That's because your fix didn't solve a similar error when using the -s flag, so I took the line number from that error and tried to escape the relevant }. It stopped the error when using -s, so I suppose I got the right bracket.
