##Installation

Just clone this repository in your home (or wherever is most convenient for you) directory.

NOTE: You must make this repository visible to whatever distribution of $\LaTeX$ you are using. For me, this involved adding

export TEXINPUTS=".:~/latex:"

to my .zshrc and then keeping this repository in ~/latex.


##Packages

mymath
Commonly used math stuff, mostly shortcuts for fields like the reals, common text expressions like span and argmin, etc.

##Classes

assignment
Subclasses article. Exposes nice header and question formatting. Also changes font to heuristica and has some other tweaks.

essay
Subclasses article. Redefines a pretty \maketitle, mostly, as well as typography and geometry changes. This will change in the near future to a more MS-word like format, with double spaced text, etc.

notes
Subclasses the current essay, with the additional feature of giving a boxed aside environment.

resume
A nice, sparse resume, set in Optima with lots of whitespace; you can switch to Palatino, a similar, but serif, rather than sans-serif, font if you'd like a more professional look.


##Testing

Run make test to generate the examples for each class. You can find output in the examples folder, and source files in the test folder.
