Using LATEX

A LATEX style option (for version 2.09 of LATEX) that implements these instructions has been prepared, as well as two BibTEX styles (one for version 0.98i and one for version 0.99c of BibTEX) that implement the citation and reference style in these instructions.

The relevant files have been placed in the LATEX style collection at Rochester. To retrieve these files use one of the following methods:

  1. For Internet users - how to ftp:

    Here is an example session. Ftp syntax varies from host to host; your syntax may be different.

    % ftp cayuga.cs.rochester.edu
     ... (general blurb)
    ftp> login anonymous
    Password: <any non-null string>
     ... (more blurb)
    ftp> cd public/latex-style
     ... (more blurb)
    ftp> get aaai-instructions.tex
     ... (more blurb)
    ftp> get aaai.sty
     ... (more blurb)
    ftp> get aaai-named-0.99.bst
     ... (more blurb)
    ftp> get aaai-named-0.98.bst
     ... (more blurb)
    ftp> quit
    

    The name ``rochester.arpa'' or the address ``192.5.53.209'' can be used instead of ``cayuga.cs.rochester.edu''.

  2. Non-Internet users - how to retrieve by mail:

    Send a piece of mail to LaTeX-Style@cs.rochester.edu in the following format: Subject line should contain the phrase ``@file request''. Body of the mail should start with a line containing only an @ (at) sign. The first line following should be a mail address from rochester to you. Follow with the names of the files you want separated by spaces or new lines. End with a line containing only an @ sign. Case is not significant.

    For example, if you are user at dept.site.edu, this is what you should send:

    To: latex-style@cs.rochester.edu
    Subject: @file request
    
    @
    user@dept.site.edu
    aaai-instructions.tex aaai.sty 
    aaai-named-0.99.bst aaai-named-0.98.bst 
    @
    

    It is best to fully qualify your mail address unless it is fully registered. For example, use user%site.bitnet@cunyvm.cuny.edu instead of user@site.bitnet.
