  8. This LaTeX2e document class enables the production of University of Otago
  9. formatted examination papers. It handles all the fiddly layout requirements
  10. (such as printing `TURN OVER' at the bottom of every page except the last),
  11. and also ensures that the actual number of marks for questions in the
  12. examination add up to the expected number of marks.

  15. WHAT'S NEW IN VERSION 2.0.1
  16.  
  17. * There was a bug in the definition of the macros for numbering
  18. sub-sub-questions that meant they were numbered as "(a)" instead of the
  19. correct "(i)". Fixed.
  20.  
  21. * When referencing sub-questions or sub-sub-questions, the entire question
  22. number was included (that is, "1(b)(iii)" instead of just "(iii)"). This
  23. made it difficult to sensibly reference these items, so the relevant
  24. macros have been changed to omit this prefixed information. References to
  25. questions now print as "1", sub-questions as "(b)" and sub-sub-questions
  26. as "(iii)". If this does not suit your requirements, change the
  27. \labelquestion, \labelsubquestion or \labelsubsubquestion macros.

  30. REQUIREMENTS
  31.  
  32. ouexam requires the verbatim class, which should be standard on most LaTeX
  33. installations. The class documentation uses the graphicx and hyperref
  34. packages, so you will have to install these first if you don't have them
  35. already.
  36.  
  37.  
  38. INSTALLING (UNIX OR SIMILAR)
  39.  
  40. A makefile is provided:
  41.  
  42. * `make' will produce both ouexam.cls and ouexam.dvi (see below).
  43.  
  44. * `make class' will produce ouexam.cls. Place this file in a directory
  45. somewhere in your TeX search path (e.g., if you use teTeX, put it in
  46. texmf/tex/latex/ouexam or somewhere similar).
  47.  
  48. * `make doc' will produce ouexam.dvi.
  49. * If you have GhostScript and the dvipdf command, `make pdfdoc' will
  50. produce PDF documentation.
  51.  
  52.  
  53. INSTALLING (EVERYTHING ELSE)
  54.  
  55. Run ouexam.ins through LaTeX to produce ouexam.cls. Place this file in a
  56. directory somewhere in your LaTeX search path. Then run ouexam.dtx through
  57. LaTeX _three_ (yes, three) times to produce the documentation (ouexam.dvi).
  58. PDF documentation can be produced from the DVI by whatever means you
  59. normally use to do so.
