NOTE to others:
        If you are looking at this thesis 'style', you need:
        (from this directory)
                *.tex
                (really just thesis.tex but I would grab the rest as 
		'samples')
        (from ~griff/tex)
                thesis.bib   (if you are going to use bibtex - recomended)
                phdreport.cls  (main style file)
                mystyle.sty   (not much in here- but adjust your top 
		margin for gauss compiling - see comments)
thesis.tex is the main file with all the includes, comment out or delete 
what you don't want.
To latex:
>latex thesis

>bibtex thesis  (if you ever change references)
(two more latex thesis)

I use a cheat using the part() to add in appendices - and the cheat 
   currently adds appendices before the references (msu want them after)
I never fixed the caps for chapters, as such you need to type them in all 
in caps.

I use the closeme script to bring modified files to my floppy to bring 
home. It just copies the files modified in the last 2 days (unless you 
specify the number of days: >closeme 10 ; would cp those modified in 
the last ten days)

To generate PDF file use:
>dvips -Ppdf thesis -o thesis.ps
	followed by
>ps2pdf thesis.ps
this doesn't seem to work anymore
>pdflatex thesis.tex
****** for some silly reason the fonts don't work right with dvipdf
	%%%%%%%%%%%%%%  sometime you need to try pdf2text.
