LaTeX is installed by default in all CIRRELT Linux machines.
However, you can load a recent version of Latex and access TeXstudio a latex editor by load the 2 following modules in a linux terminal :
module load texlive module load texstudio
With texlive, there's a tool called tlmgr that allows you to search install and remove additionnal packages.
The first step is to initialize your personal directory with this command:
tlmgr init-usertree
After that, you can search packages:
tlmgr search --global algorithm
To install a module:
tlmgr --usermode install algorithmicx
To remove a module:
tlmgr --usermode remove algorithmicx
If a module isn't available with tlmgr, you can add it in the same directory when you will edit your latex document. Or you can use tlmgr directory structure to add the module, this way you can use that module in multiple documents.
cd ~ mkdir -p texmf/tex/latex
mkdir texmf/tex/latex/algo mv algo.cls texmf/tex/latex/algo
You can use this organisation for your biography files too.
As we've seen for the module you create the same directory structure with bibtex
as a subdirectory for biography files.
cd ~ mkdir -p texmf/bibtex/bib mkdir -p texmf/bibtex/bst
You can put bibtex
files in bibtex/bib
and if you have bst
(biography style files) in bibtex/bst
.
