Summary

Some simple configuration files I use to typeset my papers. At present, includes the following:

  • Some page layouts for articles typeset using LaTeX (actually XeLaTeX) and the Memoir class.
  • Some custom style files for use with org-mode and the Emacs Starter Kit, letting you export .org files to .tex files suitable for processing with either pdflatex or xelatex.
  • A style file for typesetting Sweave output using the Listings package.
  • A replacement for using Sweave.sty when writing sweave documents in R/LaTeX (Sweavel.sty). This allows you to directly style Sweave files, rather than having to use the listings style file above.
  • A template for an Article, using the layouts & format files here.
  • A template for a Syllabus, using the layouts & format files here.

To make use of these files you will need a modern TeX installation, and in particular,

The .sty files in the needs-org-mode directory are meant for use with org-mode as configured in the Emacs Starter Kit for the Social Sciences

Of course, not all of these packages are needed to use each of the layouts. Only a modern TeX system is really presupposed.

Feel free to extend and improve as you like.
