Limao's TeXplates

This repo is a collection of my custom LaTeX templates.

• assignment-texplate: A template for assignments and homework sets.
• cheatsheet-texplate: A template for cheatsheets.
• limao-preamble: A general preamble with commonly-used packages imported and some helpful macros defined.

Aside: If you're interested in using TeX snippets, mine can be found here.

Installation

Follow the steps below to install the templates in this repository.

1. Clone the repository to some local directory:

   git clone git@github.com:LimaoC/TeXplate
   

2. Create symlinks for each template you'd like in your TeX home directory. Your TeX home directory can be found using the following command:

   kpsewhich -var-value=TEXMFHOME
   

   For linux users, this will usually be ~/texmf/. If the path to the cloned repository is path/TeXplate, you'd create your symlinks like so:

   cd ~/texmf/tex/latex
   ln -s path/TeXplate/assignment-texplate assignment-texplate
   ln -s path/TeXplate/limao-preamble limao-preamble
   

   For more information about installing LaTeX packages this way, see https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Installing_Extra_Packages.

   NOTE: All packages rely on limao-preamble being installed.

Storing the templates in your TeX home directory lets you conveniently import them from anywhere on your machine with

\usepackage{assignment-texplate}  % for the package templates
\input{limao-preamble}            % for the general preamble file

Symlinking makes it easy to grab any updates that I make to the templates - just use git pull and the templates will stay up-to-date.

Usage

See the README.md's in each respective template's directory.
