The idea of this directory is to provide shared resources for preparing publications.

Most importantly it contains the makefile with common command packages to compile latex files.

In order to use it, create a makefile in your directory with the same name with the only content 
'include <path-to-this-dir>/Makefile'. If your directory contains more than one root latex file
add 'SRCNAME=<name-of-root-file>' before the include command.

 == Quick summary of commands ==

 make (=make pdf) - complies .pdf from the root file
  
 make <filename> - tries to achieve <filename> in a suitable way, e.g. if <filename>=foo.pdf it will try
	to compile foo.tex in order to get it no matter what 'foo' is.

 make clean - removes all target files obtained by latex in one round.
 
 make cleanall - removes all target files.
 
 make up - uploads the compiled .pdf and .ps files on the server to the current user's directory under the 
	same name unless overridden by $EXTNAME variable.
 
 make show - shows the compiled .dvi in xdvi

 make bibtex - runs bibtex for all .bib files of the current directory

 make bibtool - normalizes the the .bib files by calling bibtool with the settings given in bibtool.rc
