LaTeX macros for use in TUGboat
===============================
See the TUGboat web pages at http://tug.org/TUGboat for tips on writing
articles, access to online issues, etc. We greatly appreciate new
article submissions!
The files in this directory will generate both a TUGboat article class
(ltugboat) and a TUG conference proceedings class (ltugproc). However,
these days, only ltugboat is used.
These macros are supported.
Robin Fairbairns and the rest of the TUGboat staff,
tugboat@tug.org
Installation and use:
=====================
The directory contains three files containing TeX code:
tugboat.dtx -- the source for the macros
tugboat.ins -- the docstrip instructions
ltubguid.ltx -- documentation for the macros (published in
http://tug.org/TUGboat/tb17-3/tb52guid.pdf,
but much updated since)
other files are
ltugbib.bst -- a BibTeX style to match ltugboat.cls's default
biblio capabilities
ltubguid.pdf -- browsable user documentation
tugboat.pdf -- browsable implementation documentation
Processing the .ins file produces:
ltugboat.cls -- For preparing articles for regular issues of TUGboat
ltugproc.cls -- For preparing articles for conference proceedings
ltugboat.sty -- The usual `obsolete file' warning
ltugproc.sty -- The usual `obsolete file' warning
ltugcomn.sty -- Used when processing tugboat.dtx for its
documentation content
The procedure for using the macros should therefore be:
process the .ins file
move the .sty and .cls to "somewhere LaTeX will search"
move the .bib to "somewhere BibTeX will search"
move the browsable documentation to "somewhere texdoc will search"
On a TDS installation, common search locations are:
$TEXMF/tex/latex/tugboat (for .sty, .cls)
$TEXMF/bibtex/bst/tugboat (for .bst)
$TEXMF/doc/latex/tugboat (for .pdf)
($TEXMF being a pointer to the root of a TDS tree, preferably a local
one, to avoid tangling with future releases of your TeX distribution.)
`User-level' documentation is provided in file ltubguid.pdf, which is
a revised version of a TUGboat paper. The documented source of the
macros is also provided in readily readable form, as tugboat.pdf.
By the way, tugboat.sty, tugproc.sty, and tugboat.cmn are the plain TeX
files for TUGboat and not included here (see the separate tugboat-plain
package).
