Installation instructions for the tktla document class

This LaTeX package contains the following files:

• tktla.cls - the actual implementation of the document class
• example documents using the document class
  • example.tex  and example.pdf meant for theses containing figures in the eps format and to be run with command "latex" and "dvips"
  • example2.tex and example2.pdf meant for theses containing figures in the pdf format and to be run with command "pdflatex"
• tktla.ps - formatted documentation
• tktla.dtx, tktla.ins - source files for both the implementation and the documentation

To use the document class, it is enough to copy the file tktla.cls somewhere where LaTeX can find it (this is the only file that is necessary for using the class). Probably the easiest way is to copy it to the directory where you will create your document: LaTeX looks for package and class files also in the current directory.

Modifying the package

If you wish to modify the package, you can modify tktla.cls directly, but you should note that the file is actually automatically generated from tktla.dtx and tktla.ins (along with the documentation). The command to create tktla.cls from tktla.dtx and tktla.ins is:

tex tktla.ins

The formatted documentation (tktla.ps) can be generated by running the following commands:

• latex tktla.dtx
• latex tktla.dtx
• dvips tktla.dvi -o tktla.ps

If you want to modify tktla.dtx directly, you should note that, as in all .dtx files, the comments in the file contain LaTeX source for the formatted documentation. See the documentation for the standard doc and docstrip packages (doc.dvi and docstrip.dvi) for details.
