In the following we
illustrate one way of partitioning an article (or thesis) up into
parts which can be worked on separately. In this example we have five
latex files. All 5 of these files can be worked on concurrently and
loaded in the same buffer, perhaps displaying two of them in the F9
(1-2-Wind) split widow mode. To load one of the files into the buffer,
hit F11 and respond in the minibuffer area with the name of the file.
If the file already exits, it is only necessary to enter as many of
the initial characters of the file name to uniquely identify it and
them the file name will automatically be completed by hitting the
space bar. If two few characters are entered and the space bar is hit,
you will get a list of possible completions. In this case, continue
entering one or more additional characters and hit the space bar to
automatically complete. The first file listed is what is referred to
as the driver file (i.e. the only file which is to be compiled by Meta-F2)studentdr.tex which contains document style, title, and author
information and then inputs the remaining parts of the paper stored in
the other four tex files. Since the paper is very short, one would
ordinarily place the contents of all the file in the single driver
file. Additional comments follow the listing of this driver file.
