\section{Introduction}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{Name of the game}
\begin{description}
\item[\TeX]{typesetting system developed by
\textsc{Donald E. Knuth} (Stanford University) to
create beautiful documents, especially those
containing maths. \TeX\ is free software with
copyright vested in the American Mathematical
Society.}
\item[\LaTeX]{\TeX -macroprocessor written by \textsc{Leslie
Lamport}, which implements a markup-language (similar: HTML, XML). Users can
concentrate on the structure of their document rather than on
formatting.}
\end{description}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{Typographic design}
\begin{itemize}
\item{craft that needs to be learned}
\item{not about esthetics but about function: Books are
read, not displayed in a museum}
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\subsection{Advantages and disadvantages}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{Advantages}
\begin{itemize}
\item{Several professional styles are available that
make documents look ``like printed''. Changing
style requires changing one single line in the
document, consistency is ensured.}
\item{High quality math typesetting}
\item{Only a few commands to define the structure of
text, no knowledge of typography or book design
required.}
\item{Complex scientific documents can be created
automatically:
\begin{itemize}
\item{bibliography}
\item{index}
\item{crossreferences}
\item{table of contents, lists of figures,
tables etc.}
\item{...}
\end{itemize} }
\item{Operating-system independent}
\item{Long-term storage of documents: ASCII rather
than binary}
\item{Free software with source code available: Errors
are corrected rapidly}
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{Disadvantages}
\begin{itemize}
\item{Learning curve}
\item{Major changes in layout may require rewriting the
style file (blessing in disguise)}
\item{One gets an eye for all the bad documents out
there}
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\subsection{Resources}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{Resources}
\begin{description}
\item[Software]{\href{www.ctan.org}{\texttt{\alert{www.ctan.org}}}, automatically selects nearest server }
\item[Help]{Usenet: comp.text.tex (also German: de.comp.text.tex)}
\item[Introduction]{l2short available in various languages}
\item[Literature]{The \LaTeX -companion (\textsc{Mittelbach}
\textit{et al}, 2004)}
\item[Symbols]{Comprehensive symbol list from CTAN}
\end{description}
\end{frame}
\section{Structure of a \LaTeX\ document}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{Boxes and glue}
\begin{itemize}
\item{Box (letter) + Glue (space) + Box + ... = larger
Box (word)}
\item{Words are treated as boxes to form lines, lines
paragraphs and paragraphs pages}
\item{Glue can shrink and expand within limits}
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\section{Basic commands}
\subsection{Special characters}
\begin{frame}[fragile]
\frametitle{Input characters}
Some characters have special meaning in \TeX , if you need
them they have to be entered as \TeX -commands:
\vspace{5mm}
\begin{tabular}{lll}
$\backslash$~~ & start command & {\color{darkgreen}\verb+$\backslash$+} \\
& & note: {\color{darkgreen}\verb+\\+} = newline \\
\$ & toggle math modus & {\color{darkgreen}\verb+\$+} \\
\& & tabulator & {\color{darkgreen}\verb+\&+} \\
\% & rest of line comment & {\color{darkgreen}\verb+\%+} \\
\# & & {\color{darkgreen}\verb+\#+} \\
\textasciitilde & & {\color{darkgreen}\verb+\textasciitilde+} \\
\textbar & vert. lines in table & {\color{darkgreen}\verb+\textbar+} \\
\_ & start subscript & {\color{darkgreen}\verb+\_+} \\
\textasciicircum & start superscript & {\color{darkgreen}\verb+\textasciicircum+}\\
\{ \} & command delimiter & {\color{darkgreen}\verb+\{ \}+} \\
$[\ ]$ & optional arguments & {\color{darkgreen}\verb+$[ ]$+} \\
`` '' & quotation marks & {\color{darkgreen}\verb+`` ''+} \\
$> <$ & tabbing & {\color{darkgreen}\verb+$> <$+} \\
\end{tabular}
\end{frame}
\subsection{Hypens \& Cie}
\begin{frame}[fragile]
\frametitle{Hypen, minus ...}
A horizontal line can mean a lot of things, depending on
length and thickness:
\vspace{5mm}
\begin{tabular}{lll}
O-legs & {\color{darkgreen}\verb+O-legs+} \\
10--18 o'clock & {\color{darkgreen}\verb+10--18 o'clock+} \\
ja -- oder nein? & {\color{darkgreen}\verb+ja -- oder nein?+} \\
yes---or no? & {\color{darkgreen}\verb+yes---or no?+} \\
0, 1 and --1 & {\color{darkgreen}\verb+0, 1 and --1+} \\
\end{tabular}
\end{frame}
\section{Structuring text}
\subsection{Sectioning}

\item{{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$subsubsection\{\}}}
\item{{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$paragraph\{\}}}
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{Breaking down large documents}
Use separate files for, say, each chapter. One main file with
limbo and commands to include the others:
\begin{description}
\item[{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$input\{\}}]{reads file ``as is''}
\item[{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$include\{\}}]{equiv. to
{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$clearpage $\backslash$input\{\}
$\backslash$clearpage}}
\item[{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$includeonly\{\}}]{used in limbo to
limit files {\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$included} }
\end{description}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{What is where?}
\begin{itemize}
\item{{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$tableofcontents}}
\item{{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$listoffigures}}
\item{{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$listoftables}}
\item{}
\item{{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$bibliographystyle\{plainnat\}}}
\item{{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$bibliography\{references\}}}
\item{}
\item{{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$printindex}}
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\subsection{Fonts}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{Emphasizing}
\begin{description}
\item[{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$textit\{\}}]{italics, used for
foreign words, species names etc: \textit{Staph.
aureus}}
\item[{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$textsl\{\}}]{\textsl{slanted}}
\item[{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$emph\{\}}]{used for emphasizing:
this is \emph{not} the case}
\item[{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$textsc\{\}}]{small caps, used for
persons: \textsc{Neil Armstrong} was the first man on the moon.}
\item[{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$textbf\{\}}]{bold face: used to
make something really \textbf{stick out}.}
\item[{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$textsf\{\}}]{sans serif, often used
as base font on slides. Also used for chemical
equations.}
\item[{\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$texttt\{\}}]{typewriter, used for
computer code or URLs: \texttt{
http://www.rossmed.edu.dm/}}
\end{description}
\alert{Note:} Slides use sanserif font: slanted instead of italics!

{\color{darkgreen}\begin{verbatim}
\begin{acronym}
\acro{nfkb}[NF-\textkappa B]{nuclear factor
\textkappa B}, protein in gene regulation
\end{acronym}

This will print as\\

Similar for books, chapters, reports, thesis etc. In the text
use {\color{darkgreen}$\backslash$cite\{Alb-76\}}. After first \LaTeX

\subsection{TeX-ing}
\begin{frame}
\frametitle{\TeX ing}
Always use the sequence:

\item[makeindx]{sort the index}
\item[bibtex]{create the bibliography}
\item[\LaTeX]{include bibliography and index, resolve
cross-references}

\end{description}
Note: using pdf\LaTeX\ instead of \LaTeX\ produces pdf-files
