%% This skeleton report is organised as a master file called
%% report.tex which then includes files for individual parts including
%% abstract.tex, chapter1.tex, chapter2.tex, chapter3.tex and
%% appendix1.tex.
%% The third-rep style is a locally created style based on the
%% standard LaTeX report style. If you really want to have a look at
%% it, its source can be found in
%% /usr/local/share/texmf/tex/latex/mancs/third-rep.cls
%%
%% More information about LaTeX in general and the local setup in
%% particular can be found on the web at

%% This is an example of how you load extra packages.
%% Some packages are already loaded in the third-rep class
\usepackage{url} % typeset URL's sensibly
\usepackage{pslatex} % Use Postscript fonts
%% The best way to latex just one chapter is to uncomment lines such as
%% the next:
%\includeonly{chapter1}
%% This defines the title (the \\ forces a line break)
\title{My Wonderful Creation\\
and other Gismos}
%% and author
\author{A. Student}
%% and supervisor
\supervisor{Dr. A. Lecturer}
%% and the year of the report
\reportyear{2012}
%% this defines the file that contains the text of the abstract, there
%% must be one of these by the time you submit your report.
\abstractfile{abstract.tex}
%% this defines the file that contains the acknowledgements (it can be
%% omitted if you don't feel like thanking anyone
\thanksfile{merci.tex}
%% Uncomment the following lines if you want to include the date as a
%% header in draft versions. See the documentation for fancyhdr for
%% more ways of modifying headers (texdoc fancyhdr will show you the
%% docs)
%\usepackage{fancyhdr}
%\pagestyle{fancy}
%\lhead{} % left head
%\chead{Draft: \today} % centre head
%\lfoot{}
%\cfoot{\thepage}
%\rfoot{}
%% The following line sets up the use of PostScript fonts rather
%% than the standard bitmapped fonts.
\usepackage{pslatex}
%% Uncomment the following line if you want to change the name of the
%% Bibliography to References
%\renewcommand{\bibname}{References}
\usepackage{listings}
%% End of preamble, the actual document starts here
%%
\begin{document}
%% This actually creates the title and abstract pages
\dotitleandabstract
%% Generate contents etc
\tableofcontents
\listoffigures
\listoftables
%% These include the actual text
\include{chapter1}
\include{chapter2}
\include{chapter3}
\bibliography{refs} % this causes the references to be
% listed
\bibliographystyle{alpha} % this determines the style in which
% the references are printed, other
% possible values are plain and abbrv
%% Appendices start here
\appendix
\include{appendix1}
