2008-07-10 Andy Buckley * Ready for *real* 1.4.2 release (more than a month after the first attempt!) * Added lots of TODOs and merges for the next version; removed mention in the manual of "cite" as a mandatory package. 2008-07-03 Andy Buckley * Recursive make is used (warnings about incomplete DAGs be damned) and SCons has been ditched for now. * Bundled style files are now hidden by a zip file rather than the weirdo "*.hidden" renaming thing. 2008-05-23 Andy Buckley * Hiding style files bundled with the example, since they can get accidentally picked up in recursive kpathsea lookups if *TEXINPUTS is set that way. * Fixes to makefile etc. SConstruct now works for building LaTeX documents... use it for building future versions. 2007-12-05 Andy Buckley * Fixed serif headers --- the sfheaders package is no longer needed, since sfheaders are the default in scrbook. 2007-09-12 Andy Buckley * Updated documentation about changed mandatory packages, some package clashes, and improved example formatting with framed boxes. * Added a couple of required earliest release dates to the \RequirePackage lines. * Added subfig/continued caption example chapter to the example thesis. * Removed subfig reqirement. 2007-07-03 Andy Buckley * Added command arguments etc. to the documentation. * Improved dedication command alignment as for \pagequote. 2007-07-02 Andy Buckley * Removed "Appendix" label from the colophon page (copied from the book class thebibliography environment). 2007-06-30 Andy Buckley * Improved the positioning of the \pagequote using the varwidth package - getting csquotes to work with the likes of fancybox was a nightmare. * Sorted out some extra \cleardoublepage effects that resulted from re-using the frontmatter and mainmatter definitions. 2007-06-28 Andy Buckley * Improved the horizonal and vertical centering of the page quote. * Restricted the width of the document in the page and chapter quotes. * The front quote is now implemented with the name \pagequote and \frontquote is an alias via \let. This is just to give a better name, should someone decide to use it somewhere other than at the front (not that I'm recommending that!) * Added 1.5 cm to each margin in the abstract and declaration pages - I think this looks better since they are likely to be short sections. * Added the chngpage mechanism for adding extra margin widths on section by section bases. 2007-06-27 Andy Buckley * Added the \set...spacing commands and the variables that they influence. 2007-06-25 Andy Buckley * Added optional language argument to \frontquote and \chapterquote. These use the csquotes commands \enquote and \foreignquote if csquotes is loaded. 2007-06-11 Andy Buckley * Added definite v1.5 to \thesis... command deprecation notices. * Tidied up, and removed a few obsolete references to \thesis... commands in the user guide. 2007-06-10 Andy Buckley * Added the "plainpages=false" fix to hyperref package loading to stop the pdfTeX "destination with the same identifier" warning. * Incorporated a variety of improvements from Albert Neumüller: + Babel integration and \enquote + Using subfig rather than subfigure + Introduced penalties to stop enumeration breaking across pages + Using KOMA-script base classes to fix some errors with onepage mode + Avoiding fancyhdr warnings in onepage mode. * Fix to make sfheaders.sty only be loaded if the sftitles option is in force. Thanks to Stuart Cook for the bug report and fix. 2006-09-28 Andy Buckley * Updated date to today, ready for release 1.3. 2006-09-25 Andy Buckley * Updated example document to demonstrate the bold math in titles and sans-serif titles. 2006-09-21 Andy Buckley * Made frontmatter centered titles have \LARGE size rather than \Large. * Added \boldmath to the definition of \bfseries so that maths in titles etc. will automatically go bold. Thanks to Donald Arsenau for supplying this neat trick! 2006-09-18 Andy Buckley * Fixed a bug in the definition of \definethesis (argument #2 was never used). * Added sftitles option, using the sfheaders package and some changes to the hepthesis-specific sectioning commands. Updated documentation to reflect this. 2006-06-12 Andy Buckley * Updated the documentation to reflect the recent changes. * Removed some lingering \thesis-prefixed commands from the examples. * Aliased \maketitle to \titlepage{} (see below). * Changed behaviour of \titlepage slightly: the first argument will no longer be presented prefixed with "of" (so you should include "of\\ " in the argument if you want the original, non-internationalised behaviour). Also, the first argument is now optional, so should be wrapped with square brackets rather than curly braces. \thesistitlepage has been similarly updated. * Deprecated \definethesis command: it is now just a thin wrapper for \title and \author. * Added titling option to use the titling package if available. Otherwise, redefine \title and \author to save their arguments in \thetitle and \theauthor, as well as in \@title, \@author, so that they are available in the document body, in particular for building the title page. 2006-06-06 Andy Buckley * Prompted by a request from Claudia Strabel, the table, figure, figure* and sidewaysfigure environments now use standard [!htbp] placement specifiers. 2006-02-23 Andy Buckley * Ready for version 1.2 release (no changes since 2006-01-26 and no reported bugs from beta testing) 2006-01-26 Andy Buckley * Added appendices and colophon environments and updated the manual and example accordingly. * Changed mainmatter environment to a special comment so that it doesn't remove the section numbering until the backmatter starts: I don't understand what it is about \renewenvironment that was doing this. * Fixed typo in backmatter definition which made it treat the backmatter as mainmatter. 2005-12-13 Andy Buckley * Removed pdfpagemode=FullScreen option from hyperref. Maybe re-introduce this sort of thing via an option. 2005-12-09 Andy Buckley * Fixed typo ("latex" -> "pdflatex") in the documentation of how to use a Makefile to ease the PS/PDF conditional compilation issues. * Moved frontquote text up by 1.5 cm to balance the page a bit better. This is still quite A4-specific: maybe this should be specified in terms of \textheight? * Added dedication page command and added some \cleardoublepage and page style commands to the quote page command to ensure that it doesn't overlap with the contents pages. 2005-11-01 Andy Buckley * Hacked the example files into much better shape and updated the documentation to mention the new features and the pre-defined figure widths. * Added the "deprecated" typeout into the thesis-prefixed commands and environments. * Added a sidewaysfigure environment, which introduces a dependency on the rotating package. It's very standard, so I'm not bothered. Maybe add an option to disable the rotating dependency later... * Added the hide{front,back,frontback} options. 2005-09-26 Andy Buckley * Finished off the first version of the documentation. Example files could do with some work which I'm too lazy to do right now :-) * Added the \Chapter, \ChapterRef etc. commands from a personal style file. 2005-09-02 Andy Buckley * Changed \oddsidemargin and \evensidemargin settings to use the \@bindextramargin length. * Added bindnopdf option. * Started ChangeLog entries. Oops, I should have started a bit earlier, eh?
