% 2008-04
% Changed page margin code to use the geometry package. Also added code for
% conditional page margins, depending on paper size. Thanks to Uwe Ziegenhagen
% for the suggestions.

% 2006-08
% Made changes based on suggestions from Gene Cooperman. <gene at ccs.neu.edu>


% To Do:
% \listoffigures \listoftables
% \setcounter{secnumdepth}{0}


% This sets page margins to .5 inch if using letter paper, and to 1cm
% if using A4 paper. (This probably isn't strictly necessary.)
% If using another size paper, use default 1cm margins.

\section{Math mode}
For inline math, use \verb!\(...\)! or \verb!$...$!.
For displayed math, use \verb!\[...\]! or \verb!\begin{equation}!.

\subsection{Math-mode symbols}

% The ordering of these symbols is slightly odd.  This is because I had to put all the
% long pieces of text in the same column (the right) for it all to fit properly.
% Otherwise, it wouldn't be possible to fit four columns of symbols here.

\section{Bibliography and citations}
When using \BibTeX, you need to run \texttt{latex}, \texttt{bibtex},
and \texttt{latex} twice more to resolve dependencies.

\subsection{Citation types}
\settowidth{\MyLen}{\texttt{.shortciteN.key..}}
\begin{tabular}{@{}p{\the\MyLen}@{}p{\linewidth-\the\MyLen}@{}}

The \BibTeX\ database goes in a file called
\textit{file}\texttt{.bib}, which is processed with \verb!bibtex file!. 
\begin{verbatim}
@String{N = {Na\-ture}}
