Date: September 14, 2006 12:32:20 PM CEST
The package below has been updated on tug.ctan.org and should soon make its way to your favorite mirror. Thanks, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College ====================================================================== The following information was provided by the package's contributor. Name of contribution: Stellenbosch thesis and other utilities 5.0 Author's name: Danie Els Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/stellenbosch Summary description: Typesetting dissertations, theses and reports of the University of Stellenbosch, South Africa. License type: lppl Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
The usthesis class/style files are provided to typeset reports, theses and dissertations that conform to the requirements of the Engineering Faculty of the University of Stellenbosch. The class file usthesis.cls is based on the standard LaTeX book class, while usthesis.sty is a style file to be loaded on top of the very powerful memoir class. Both options give identical output, but the benefit of the using memoir is that it has many additional command and environments for formatting and processing of a document. Usthesis is primarily concerned with the formatting of the front matter such as the title page, abstract, etc. and a decent page layout on A4 paper. It also works together with the babel package to provide language options to typeset documents in Afrikaans or in English. Additional packages are provided for bibliographic matter, note title pages, lists of symbols, as well as various graphic files for logos. CHANGES FROM 4.0: a) Add to USthesis docs and to templates: - user defined layouts with memoir or geometry. - parskip package if spacing is required between paragraphs. b) Bugfix in usmeg-n.bst in FUNCTION{remove.spaces} c) Change default \BIBand from "\&" to "and" for usbib.sty with usmeg-a and usmeg-n options.
