This is the README file for the CoppeTeX package.
Introduction
------------
This project provides a LaTeX document class suitable for writing academic
dissertations and thesis according to the formatting rules established by the
Alberto Luiz Coimbra Institute for Graduate Studies and Research in Engineering
(COPPE/UFRJ).
The 'coppe' class contains a minimalist set of macro commands which allows its
users to create the required textual elements following the COPPE/UFRJ
dissertation/thesis guidelines. Among these elements, there are a front cover,
a title page, cataloging details, native and foreign languages abstracts, table
of contents, and list of bibliographic references.
Although it is tied to the COPPE/UFRJ guidelines, it can be easily ported to
standards of other institutions.
When Conceived
--------------
It was conceived in January 2007, during the D.Sc. studies of Vicente Helano
and George Ainsworth at Federal University of Rio de Janeiro/COPPE.
How Much
--------
``This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
it under the terms of the GNU General Public License version 3 as
published by the Free Software Foundation.''
Archive Content
---------------
The development of this class follows the Comprehensive TeX Archive
Network (CTAN) standards, so it distributes a '.ins' file, '.dtx', and
README, to assist its users during installation and use.
If you have downloaded the sources, you should have received the following
files:
1. COPYING: full text of the GNU General Policy License version 3.
2. Makefile: used to extract the coppe class and build the
documentation and a sample thesis.
3. README: describe the CoppeTeX package.
4. coppe-{plain,unsrt}.bst: alphabetically sorted and unsorted numbered
BibTeX styles, Natbib compatible.
5. coppe.dtx: main source file; contains the documentation, a sample
thesis and a Makeindex style.
7. coppe.ins: used to strip out the coppe document class from `coppe.dtx'.
8. coppe-logo.[eps,pdf]: images included in the front cover.
9. example.bib: sample BibTeX database for being used by example.tex.
A release package should contains only the following files:
1. COPYING: full text of the GNU General Policy License version 3.
2. README: describe the CoppeTeX package.
3. coppe.cls: the main file. It is a LaTeX document class.
4. coppe-{plain,unsrt}.bst: alphabetically sorted and unsorted numbered
BibTeX styles, Natbib compatible.
5. coppe.ist: Makeindex style for creating lists of symbols
and abbreviations.
6. coppe.pdf: CoppeTeX documentation.
7. example.{tex,bib}: sample thesis using coppe class.
8. coppe-logo.[eps, pdf]: images included in the front cover.
Installing
----------
If you have some experience with LaTeX classes and packages, you won't have any
difficult when installing CoppeTeX. It should be installed as any other LaTeX
package you have ever used. So, you can save your time skipping this section.
The impatient user should get a thesis template at
<http://coppetex.sourceforge.net/doc.html#thesistemplate>.
For the enthusiastic newbies, we give here succinct instructions for installing
the CoppeTeX bundle.
There exist two possible ways of obtaining CoppeTeX. You can download a release
or the sources. Each of these has its own installation method. We describe both
in the following sections.
From releases:
Suppose TEXMF is a variable which stores the path of your local LaTeX tree.
Then you should copy the files coppe.cls, coppe.ist and coppe-unsrt.bst to
$TEXMF/tex/latex/coppe, $TEXMF/makeindex/coppe and $TEXMF/bibtex/bst/coppe,
respectively. The image files minerva.eps and minerva.pdf go into the same
directory as coppe.cls. In the end, you have to type 'texhash' to update your
LaTeX tree and to make CoppeTeX visible to your LaTeX compiler.
From sources:
For installing from sources, type:
latex coppe.ins
and you will get all the files you need. They are all stripped out from
coppe.dtx. Now, you should follow the instructions in the 'From releases'
section.
