<?php /* File: $Id$ This script generates a LaTeX include file that contains macros specifying the dates for every lecture in a teaching period. It doesn't generate dates for multiple papers; rather, you should generate a separate include file for each paper individually. The main reason for this approach is that paper codes include digits, which you can't include in LaTeX macro names. We therefore generate generic macros (\DateLectureOne, \DateLectureTwo, etc.), that don't include any paper information. The configuration for a specific paper is read from a separate file. The output of the script should be placed at the root of the tree for the target paper, alongside the paper_init.tex file. / // LaTeX macro names can't include numbers, so we have to convert them to words. include( 'Numbers/Words.php' ); / Configuration requires the following variables to be specified in the file lecturedates_config.php: $start_dates A list of starting dates for contiguous teaching weeks, e.g., the six weeks up to mid-semester break, and the seven weeks after. We pretty much ignore breaks, etc., otherwise; all we want to know is what the date(s) are for the lecture(s) in each week. It also means that we don't have to do any thing clever for things like full year papers that span more than one semester.
