-====== Latex ======
-Use latex !
-===== Software =====
-For Windows I recommend using [[http://www.miktex.org/|MikTeX]] distribution, and [[http://www.toolscenter.org/|TeXnicCenter]] which is an excellent latex editor (keyboard shortcuts etc).
-With Linux I use TeTex distribution, and a normal text editor (Scite or Kate) or Kile which is a good latex editor (integrated compilation).
-===== Howtos =====
-==== Use hyperlinks ====
-To have all references as hyperlinks (table of contents, references, URLs) ...
-You can also fill title and author fields of the pdf file.
-<code latex>
-\usepackage[colorlinks=true,urlcolor=blue,pdftitle={My report},pdfauthor={Cyril}]{hyperref}
-\href{http://www.google.com}{Google's website}
-\url{http://www.google.com}
-</code>
-==== Include PDF documents ====
-Compile with ''pdflatex''.
-<code latex>
-\usepackage{pdfpages}
-\includepdf[pages=-]{pdf_filename_without_extension} % all pages
-</code>
-==== Highlight syntax in your code ====
-<code latex>
-\usepackage{listings}
-% this is not mandatory (customization), after begin{document} :
-\definecolor{colCode}{rgb}{.4,.4,.4}
-\lstset{
-language=[ANSI]C++, % default language
-basicstyle=\footnotesize\ttfamily\color{colCode},
-keywordstyle=\bfseries,
-identifierstyle=,
-commentstyle=\rmfamily\itshape\color{blue},
-numbers=left, numberstyle=\tiny, stepnumber=5, numbersep=5pt,
-showstringspaces=false,
-tabsize=2,
-extendedchars=true,
-xleftmargin=.5cm
-}
-</code>
-<code latex>
-\begin{lstlisting}
-for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
-  cout << i << " " << endl;
-\end{lstlisting}
-\begin{lstlisting}[language=XML]
-<foo bar=value>
-hello
-</foo>
-\end{lstlisting}
-\lstinputlisting{matlab.m} % include the file
-</code>
-==== Bibliography ====
-<code latex>
-\bibliographystyle{plain} % before begin{document}
-\cite{gaussier99}
-\nocite{*} % to print all references in the biblio without citing them
-\bibliography{biblio}
-</code>
-In a file ''biblio.bib'' :
-<code latex>
-@BOOK{IA06,
-  author = {Stuart Russel and Peter Norvig},
-  publisher = {Pearson Education},
-  title = {Artificial Intelligence},
-  year = {2006}
-}
-@BOOKLET{gaussier99,
-  author = {P. Gaussier, C. Joulain, J.P. Banquet, S. Leprêtre, A. Revel},
-  title = {The visual homing problem},
-  year = {1999}
-}
-@MANUAL{FAQCPP,
-  title = {C++ FAQ Lite},
-  author = {Marshall Cline},
-  note = {Available on the Internet : http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/}
-}
-</code>
-Then for compilation :
-  - [pdf]latex file.tex
-  - bibtex file
-  - [pdf]latex file.tex
-  - [pdf]latex file.tex
-==== Annotations ====
-To add some text that is viewed on the screen, but not printed.
-<code latex>
-The online version of this document contains additional information at
-the end of this paragraph.
-\pdfannot width 10em depth 50mm
-  { /Subtype /FreeText
-    /Contents (Hello, world!)}
-</code>
-===== Tips =====
-==== Multirow entries in a table ====
-<code latex>
-\parbox[position][height][inner-pos]{width}{text}
-</code>
-For example :
-<code latex>
-\begin{tabular}[t]{cc}
-short & still short\\
-oh, short & \parbox[t][0.5cm]{4cm}{Oh this is really a very long sentence that I have to write in that cell now}\\
-\end{tabular}
-</code>
-==== Number subsubsections with letters ====
-<code latex>
-\setcounter{secnumdepth}{3} % to number subsubsections
-\renewcommand\thesubsubsection{\alph{subsubsection}.} % to number them with just a letter
-\makeatletter
-\renewcommand\p@subsubsection{\thesubsection.} % to reference them with chap.sec.ssec.sssec
-\makeatother
-</code>
-===== Errors =====
-==== Texhash ====
-When doing a texhash :
-  texhash: /usr/local/share/texmf/ls-R lacks magic string. Skipping...
-The magic string is :
-  % ls-R -- filename database for kpathsea; do not change this line.
-You must add it as the first line of the file ''/usr/local/share/texmf/ls-R''
-**EDIT** by cJ : You're sure of this ? I'm generating my ls-R with ''ls -R'' so I don't have this line, and kpathsea never complained ...
-**EDIT** by cyril : all I know is that I had this error, there was no magic string, and after adding it texhash didn't complain anymore ...
