ABOUT CURVE Copyright (C) 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2007, 2010 Didier Verna This file is part of CurVe. CurVe may be distributed and/or modified under the conditions of the LaTeX Project Public License, either version 1.1 of this license or (at your option) any later version. The latest version of this license is in http://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt and version 1.1 or later is part of all distributions of LaTeX version 1999/06/01 or later. CurVe consists of the following files: - NEWS - README (this file) - THANKS - curve.dtx - curve.el - curve.ins - curve.pdf - cv.tex - rubric.tex * Description ============= CurVe is a Curriculum Vitae class package for LaTeX2e. It provides you with a set of commands to create rubrics, entries in these rubrics etc. CurVe will then properly format your CV for you (possibly splitting it onto multiple pages, repeating the titles etc), which is usually the most painful part of CV writing. Another nice feature of CurVe is its ability to manage different CV "flavors" simultaneously. It is in fact often the case that you want to maintain slightly divergent versions of your CV at the same time, in order to emphasize on different aspects of your background. CurVe also comes with support for AUC-TeX. CurVe homepage: http://www.lrde.epita.fr/~didier/software/latex.php#curve * Installation ============== If you are building CurVe from the tarball you need to execute the following steps in order to extract the necessary files: [pdf]latex curve.ins -> will create the class file curve.cls [pdf]latex curve.dtx -> (twice) will create the documentation files curve.pdf or curve.dvi. Note that curve.pdf is already part of the distribution. After that, you need to install the generated documentation and class file to a location where LaTeX can find them. For a TDS-compliant layout, the following locations are suggested: [TEXMF]/tex/latex/curve/curve.cls [TEXMF]/doc/latex/curve/curve.[pdf|dvi] If you're an AUC-TeX user, you may also install the file `curve.el' in a suitable AUC-TeX style directory. Once you have installed the package, you might eventually want to process the example files from the examples/ directory. Just type "make pdf" or "make dvi" in that directory to compile everything.
