This is a preliminary release of REFMAN.CLS for
LaTeX2e. [1994/06/01]
Version 1.9 e
It is based on the Classes.dtx (1.2s) and the Refman.sty version 1.1.
This new class is a class by it's own and no style-option.
I've made this change to support some things which would have
been difficult with a style-option.
The new class consitst of
refart.cls an article-like style (former refman-s)
refrep.cls a report-like style (former refman)
The size-depending files
ref10.clo
ref11.clo
ref12.clo
are no longer needed because size{10|11|12} will be used now.
There is only little difference between refart and refrep:
Refrep supports chapters, has a titlepage by default and uses
chaptermark and sectionmark in footings and headings.
Refrep supports \pageperchapter
Refart supports an optional titlepage and uses sectionmark
and subsectionmark in footings and headings.
Changes:
========
Both classes support different papersizes in the same way as the
original LaTeX2e-classes, including the landscape option.
There is a new option to produce a square-layout.
The pagelayout is not 100% compatible to refman.sty due to the
multiple-papersize-support.
The running head and foot is not compatible to refman.sty.
I've changed the footnote-layout since a not indended footnote-
layout fits better to a not indended textlayout.
I've tried to support an index-environment. This is not tested
(It is now and it works!)
and may change in the final release. The current version supports
twocolumn-layout in the index.
The maketitle-command sets title *and* autor *and* date. If you
don't want the date use \date{} before calling \maketitle.
I've followed the example of Markus Kohm and renamed the classes
to refart.cls and refrep.cls. Thus it is easier to remember what is
what and it can't be confused with refman.sty
Obsolete commands:
==================
The command setleftmarginwidth is no longer supported. There is no
use setting the leftmargin to a fixed value if you don't know
the fullwidth. (See Future commands)
The makeauthor is no longer supported, this is done by maketitle.
New commands (not in refman.sty v. 1.1)
====================================
There are some commands I consider usefull in a reference
manual style:
/pagebychapter
This will give you new pagenumbers each chapter,
looking like 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, 2-1 ...
Prefacepages will be numberer 1,2,3 since 0-1 is not desireable.
(I can't make this a package because I have to change the chapter command)
\settextfraction{fraction}
This will reset the horizontal layout, giving you a textwidth
of fraction*fullwidth. The restriction to lines with 60-70 chars has
been removed.
Both commands should only be used in the preamble.
1.9 a Included redefinition of pagestyle{plain} for twoside printing
1.9 b Refman now works with LaTeX2e [1994/06/01] and is in sync
with classes 1.2 s
1.9 c Fixed refman: There should be an opening { in markright
(every pagestyle, except for plain and empty)
Moved changing of topmargin inside ps definition
1.9 d Fixed the pagestyles for oneside printing
Changed chapter layout (uses fullwidth now)
Changed typeout to ClassError where needed
1.9 e Renamed refman to refrep and refman-s to refart.
Cleaned up fullwidth-environment, now it works on
even-sides too:-)
Added \pageperchapter to refrep.cls
Added \settextfraction
Removed ref{10|11|12}.clo. Refman is now using the
size{10|11|12}.clo files.
