$Id: template.txt,v 1.1 2004/01/12 22:14:04 comsubvie Exp $ Document Template Author: Paul Joseph Thompson ======================================================= Purpose: Here is a brief description of the purpose of this document. It should be just a few sentences at most. This is our document template. New Section =========== This is a new section. It will contain brilliant ideas. For now, however, it does not really contain anything useful. Oh yeah, each new section should start like this one and the others below. | | | | | | +-+-+-+-+-+ | | -| o o |- \| \ |/ | | | --- | \_______/ A section can have multiple paragraphs and pictures, if you like. Please note that is the first piece of ascii art that I have ever created. Also note that each section should have two blank lines before it. This makes it easier to glance through the document and pull out the headers as they stand out much better. Other Formatting ================ Other notes should be made about formatting, to keep everything looking the same in our collection of documents. Here are some more guidelines: * No indentation should be used for paragraphs * Unordered lists should be formatted like this one, two space idention with either an asterisk (*), plus sign (+), or minus sign (-) leading each item. * Ordered Lists should use standard numerals (1-10) and formatted in the same manner as unordered lists. * Outlines can be formatted however you want. :) Remember, these guidelines are provide just as a means of standardizing our efforts. Word Wrapping ============= All documents should be word wrapped at 80 characters. VI Tips: ======== To set text wrapping to 80 characters, use the command ":set tw=80". To reformat the text wrapping for the current paragraph, move the cursor to that paragraph and type "gqap".
