21.2. CodeReferencesUse the reference heading appropriate for your discipline, in uppercase, centered and atthe top of the page. Individual refences should be single-spaced with the second andlater lines of a multiline reference indented with respect to the first line. There should bedouble-spacing between references.AppendicesThe heading for an appendix consists of the word ‘APPENDIX’ followed by the uppercaseletter signifying its position in the sequence of appendices (e.g., A or B or C or . . . ). Thisshall be centered on the top line. The title of the appendix, in uppercase, is centered on thefollowing line. This page is not numbered. Subsequent pages are numbered and the textcommences on the top text line of the following page.BiographyThe title for the optional biographical page is ‘BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH’, in the usualposition. The text shall not exceed the one page.21.2 CODEGiven the above set of requirements we can produce code that, hopefully, will generatedocuments that will not fall foul of the inspectorate. For simplicity I’ll do the code in theform of a package called pwasu.sty. I will be using some LaTeX kernel commands thatyou won’t normally come. Some of the macros include @ as part of their name but this issafe as they are in a package, otherwise they would have to be within a \makeatletter. . . \makeatother grouping (see §E.4).21.2.1 InitialisationFirst, identify the package and its basic requirements.%%%% file pwasu.sty\NeedsTeXFormat{LaTeX2e}\ProvidesPackage{pwasu}[2009/04/18 v0.3 ASU thesis]This is only going to work with memoir, so check if the class is being used, and if not thengive an error message and stop reading the package code.%% Only works with the memoir class!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!\@ifclassloaded{memoir}{\let\endpwasu\relax}{\let\endpwasu\endinput\PackageError{pwasu}{The pwasu package only works with the memoir class}%{\@ehd}}\endpwasuASU is very strict about only using a single font in a single size. It is probable thatat least one reference will be made to a location on the web. With LaTeX such referencesare set using the url package, which defaults to using a monospaced font for urls. ForASU we have to make sure that they will be made using the body font (and the sameapplies to any verbatim text, such as computer code listings, for which we can use the\setverbatimfont command).363
