3. HyTeX User s Manual Rob J Hyndman Version 7 0 April 2007 Hyigx is a BIEX style file for producing even better documents It is a collection of commands that I have found useful and think other BIFX users probably will too It is intended for use with ATEX 2e HEX 7 0 is a trimmed down version of HEX 6 0 As more packages have be come available some of the facilities in HEX became obsolete In particular e For compact lists use the paralist package e For variations on description lists use the mdwlist package For bibliographies use BibTEX with the natbib package e For bold mathematical symbols use the bm package For blackboard letters use the amsfonts package For variations on the verbatim environment use the verbatim package e For better control in typesetting theorems use the ntheorem package e For better control over numbering equations and floats use the ansmath package This is pretty useful for lots of other things too Other trimming occurred by removing facilities that were hardly ever used To use HYEX simply begin your I4TEX document like this documentclass article usepackagefhytex begin document There is often no need for any other preamble The page dimension commands that many people include in the preamble are unnecessary as HFX does all this for you HFX may also be used with the report book or letter document styles When the HYEX style file is loaded in this way a
