% UCL Thesis LaTeX Template
% (c) Ian Kirker, 2014
%
% This is a template/skeleton for PhD/MPhil/MRes theses.
%
% It uses a rather split-up file structure because this tends to
% work well for large, complex documents.
% We suggest using one file per chapter, but you may wish to use more
% or fewer separate files than that.
% We've also separated out various bits of configuration into their
% own files, to keep everything neat.
% Note that the \input command just streams in whatever file you give
% it, while the \include command adds a page break, and does some
% extra organisation to make compilation faster. Note that you can't
% use \include inside an \include-d file.
% We suggest using \input for settings and configuration files that
% you always want to use, and \include for each section of content.
% If you do that, it also means you can use the \includeonly statement
% to only compile up the section you're currently interested in.
% You might also want to put figures into their own files to be \input.
% For more information on \input and \include, see:
% http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/246/when-should-i-use-input-vs-include
% Formatting rules for theses are here:

% Binding and submitting guidelines are here:

% This package goes first and foremost, because it checks all
% your syntax for mistakes and some old-fashioned LaTeX commands.
% Note that normally you should load your documentclass before
% packages, because some packages change behaviour based on
% your document settings.
% Also, for those confused by the RequirePackage here vs usepackage
% elsewhere, usepackage cannot be used before the documentclass
% command, while RequirePackage can. That's the only functional
% difference as far as I'm aware.
\RequirePackage[l2tabu, orthodox]{nag}
% ------ Main document class specification ------
% The draft option here prevents images being inserted,
% and adds chunky black bars to boxes that are exceeding
% the page width (to show that they are).
% The oneside option can optionally be replaced by twoside if
% you intend to print double-sided. Note that this is
% *specifically permitted* by the UCL thesis formatting
% guidelines.
%
% Valid options in terms of type are:
% phd
% mres
% mphil

% Package configuration:
% LaTeX uses "packages" to add extra commands and features.
% There are quite a few useful ones, so we've put them in a
% separate file.
\input{MainPackages}
% Sets up links within your document, for e.g. contents page entries
% and references, and also PDF metadata.
% You should edit this!
\input{LinksAndMetadata}
% And then some settings in separate files.
\input{FloatSettings} % For things like figures and tables
\input{BibSettings} % For bibliographies
% These control how many number sections your subsections will take
% e.g. Section 2.3.1.5.6.3
% and how many of those will get put into the contents pages.

\begin{document}
\nobibliography*
% ^-- This is a dumb trick that works with the bibentry package to let
% you put bibliography entries whereever you like.
% I used this to put references to papers a chapter's work was
% published in at the end of that chapter.
% For more information, see: http://stefaanlippens.net/bibentry
% If you haven't finished making your full BibTex file yet, you
% might find this useful -- it'll just replace all your
% citations with little superscript notes.
% Uncomment to use.
%\renewcommand{\cite}[1]{\emph{\textsuperscript{[#1]}}}
% At last, content! Remember filenames are case-sensitive and
% *must not* include spaces.
\include{Preamble}
\include{Introduction}
\include{Chapter2}
\include{Chapter3}
\include{Conclusions}
\include{Appendices}
% You could separate these out into different files if you have
% particularly large appendices.
% This line manually adds the Bibliography to the table of contents.
% The fact that \include is the last thing before this ensures that it
% is on a clear page, and adding it like this means that it doesn't
% get a chapter or appendix number.
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Bibliography}
% Actually generates your bibliography.
\bibliography{example}
% All done. \o/
