Help talk:Tex and LaTeX

• It would be nice if this page included a list of templates available locally. Currently no extra templates are installed, but the distribution in use may include things not mentioned in the documentation referenced.

• It would be nice if we had a latex template for UCF thesis format.

• Some basic examples of LaTeX use would be nice.

• The following should be added to the page after wiki latex is installed.

The default math package that comes with mediawiki is currently installed, and seems to mostly work. If you have an example that doesn't work and you think it should, add it here.

feature	math	raw
square root	<math>\sqrt{3}</math>	\sqrt{3}
integral	<math>\int_{a\rightarrow b}x_0^2</math>	\int_{a\rightarrow b}x_0^2
fraction	<math>1\over3</math>	1\over3

Things probably needed to fix this:

• Texvc
• OCaml

Some nice examples are at: (copy this into example area after WikiTeX works)

• WikiTex

double space problem

Someone asked me how to single space a part of a doublespaced document. Found this snippet:

\usepackage{doublespace}
\begin{singlespace} single space this block \end{singlespace}.

alternately

\usepackage{setspace}
Then switch between different spacing options with:
\doublespacing
\singlespacing
\onehalfspacing
