6 <tmdoc-title|Standard <TeXmacs> styles>
8 The main <TeXmacs> styles are:
11 <item*|<tmstyle|generic>>This is the default style when you open a new
12 document. The purpose of this style is to produce quick, informal
13 documents. For this reason, section numbering is disabled and the layout
14 of paragraphs is very simple: instead of indenting the first lines of
15 paragraphs, they are rather separated by white-space.
17 <item*|<tmstyle|article>>This style may be used for writing short
18 scientific articles, which are subdivided into sections. The numbering of
19 environments like theorems, remarks, <abbr|etc.> is relative to the
20 entire document. If you use the <tmpackage|number-long-article> package,
21 then the numbers are prefixed by the section number.
23 <item*|<tmstyle|book>>This is the basic style for writing books. Books
24 are assumed to be subdivided into chapters and numbers of environments
25 are prefixed by the chapter number. In general, it is also comfortable to
26 store each chapter in a separate file, so that they can be edited more
27 efficiently. This issue is explained in more detail in the section about
28 <hyper-link|books and multifile documents|../links/man-multifile.en.tm>.
30 <item*|<tmstyle|seminar>>Documents based on this style are typically
31 printed on slides for presentations using an overhead projector. You may
32 also want to use it when making presentation directly from your laptop,
33 after selecting <menu|View|Presentation mode>. Notice however, that
34 slides correspond to real pages, whereas you rather should use
35 ``switches'' in presentation mode.
37 <item*|<tmstyle|source>>This is the privileged style for editing style
38 files and packages. It enables ``source mode'', so that documents are
39 rendered in a way which makes the structure fully apparent. For more
40 details, we refer to the section on the <hyper-link|rendering of style
41 files|../../devel/style/presentation/src-present.en.tm>.
44 The <tmstyle|article> style admits several variants, so as to make the
45 layout correspond to the policy of specific journals. Currently, we have
46 implemented the <TeXmacs> analogue of the <LaTeX> style <tmstyle|amsart>,
47 as well as the styles <tmstyle|acmconf> and <tmstyle|jsc>. Similarly, we
48 are developing styles <tmstyle|tmarticle> and <tmstyle|tmbook> which
49 provide an alternative layout for articles and books.
51 In addition to variants of the <tmstyle|article> and <tmstyle|book> styles,
52 <TeXmacs> provides also a few other styles, which are based on the main
53 styles, but which provide some additional markup.
56 <item*|<tmstyle|letter>>This style is based on the informal
57 <tmstyle|generic> style, but it provides additional markup for writing
58 letters. The additional macro are mainly used for headers and endings of
61 <item*|<tmstyle|exam>>This style, which is again based on
62 <tmstyle|generic>, provides some additional markup for headers of exams.
63 It also customizes the rendering of exercises.
65 <item*|<tmstyle|tmdoc>>This style is used for writing the <TeXmacs>
66 documentation. It contains several tags for special types of content and
67 extensions for linking, indexing, document traversal, <abbr|etc.>. Some
68 aspects of this style are still under heavy development.
