How to write TeX

The SEP macros are usually at

/usr/local/share/TEX/teTeX/texmf/tex/latex/

Thesis.txt contains Sergey's mail about the thesis macro package.
Geophysics.txt contains Sergey's mail about a macro package for geophysics publications.
Other styles can be invoked with geophysics article submissions: add to your makefile LATOPTS = class=geophysics and make sure that /usr/local/share/TEX/teTeX/texmf/tex/latex/sep2e/geophysics.cls is in your path. You might be prompted for it. SEG abstract: LATOPTS = class=seg97 and make sure that /usr/local/share/TEX/teTeX/texmf/tex/latex/sep2e/seg97.cls is in your path. You might be prompted for it. LATOPTS = style=jslide for jon's slide style.
Posters and how to do them on a plotter.
Letter.tex is an example of a letter I wrote in LaTeX. Not perfect, but okay.
Sched.tex and Schedw97.tex are example for a school schedule.
Resume.txt is a letter by Bill Harlan that includes his resume including the TeX macros.
Slides.txt contains a few notes on how to create slides with TeX. But this needs to be merged with my notes on SegTalks.

Comments.txt explains how to include comment sections using

      \begin{comments}
         blabla 
      \end{comments}

fonts.txt lists the directories of some common fonts and there usage (careful: a bit dated!).
latex2e.txt contains Sergey's announcement of SEP's new latex2e text processing system. See also SEP's TeX page. There is also a short paper on the new latex2e paper by Sergey, Matt, and Joel.
HTML links in your paper (instructions by Sergey): put LATOPTS = style=html in your makefile \htmladdnormallink{text}{URL} in you tex file.
