Template-LaTeX

LaTeX template for MSE semester, deepening project, thesis reports.

Getting Started

This template provides a LaTeX class which simply replaces and extends the standard directive report.

Without Git

This template is based on (https://github.com/njakob/template-latex/releases) and modified for my needs. Thanks to Nicolas Jakob

This updated model is available at (https://github.com/gremaudc/latex_model_mse) (here :-))

What's new ?

The main differences with this of Nicolas Jakobs are:

• Added new type of report (deepening)
• Remove tab space when start a new paragraph with "\" latex command. Just comment "\usepackage[parfill]{parskip}" in "/template-latex/mse-thesis.cls" if you don't want this feature
• Add a new bibliography backend "bibtex8" instead of "biber" for compatibility problem. The old option is just commented
• Add new command to add glossary and acronyms (\insertglossary)
• Modified structure example to match with the most frequent MSE report structure
• Add example using dirtree package for CD-ROM listing

It is recommended that you configure your workspace as shown below, then it will be easy to keep it updated.

Clone this Repository

Create a new folder for your report, then run git clone command.

$ git clone [email protected]:gremaudc/latex_model_mse.git

Setup your Own Repository

Create a new folder for your report, and then initialize your repository as usual.

$ git init
$ git remote add origin <remote-location-of-your-git>
