Department of Computer Science - LaTeX class for UofM MSc and
PhD theses
The documentation for this class (which is included
in the file muthesis.cls itself) assumes some basic knowledge of how
LaTeX works and was written from the point of view of someone who uses
the command line to run commands in a Unix based environment such as
Linux or Mac OS X. Versions of LaTeX designed for use in a MS Windows
environment (such as MiKTeX) are also available and widely used, with
plenty of online documentation.
The zip file contains an example thesis using the muthesis class for
the LaTeX document preparation system. Within the sample report is a
simple guide to using LaTeX.
Start by looking at the file report.tex
To run the muthesis report example:
Copy all the files.
Run
latex report
bibtex report
and then run `latex report' twice more.
It is more normal nowadays to generate pdf output rather than dvi, just use pdflatex instead of latex .
Queries regarding the muthesis class or this page should be
addressed to Graham
Gough.
