Module: LatexTools

Defined in:
lib/latex_table.rb

Overview

The LatexTools module wraps everything in this package. For convenience of use (i.e. unless you have a good reason not to do so), you should include the following line at the beginning of your source code:

include LatexTools

Not doing so will result in much more verbose and much harder to read code, which is not how this module was intended to be used. For instance, when the module is included properly, use of the LatexTable class becomes quite clean and “c++ like”:

:include: examples/table/example1.rb

(See the LatexTable class documentation for more.)
