I'm a (rather experimented) LaTeX-user... but unfortunately, I have to use Word (2000 (!)) at work. One of the things I miss the most (I mean, except the typographic quality, the macros and the math stuff :P) is the LaTeX-style float. Is there some way to put a picture in a floating position (eg, like with \begin{figure}[htp]) in Word? ...

Hi all, I'm using the listing package with this \begin command: \begin{lstlisting}[caption=blabla, label=amb] This yields a nice code listing with a caption like ”Listing 1.1 blabla”. Is there a way to change the caption and have something like ”Code 1.1 blabla” ? I saw the ”title” command but it doesn't use a numbering system. Any ...
I have several lemmas in which I specify constants $C_1$, $C_2$, and so forth for later reference. Naturally, this is annoying when I later insert a new constant definition in the middle. What I'd like is a macro that lets me assign labels to constants and handles the numbering for me. I'm thinking something along the lines of %% Pse...

So I quite like the Anttor fonts and I'd like to use them in LaTeX. Everything is nice, except the \emptyset symbol is ugly. I'd like to just \renewcommand the null set command, but I can't work out how to call, say, the computer modern \emptyset when using a different font family everywhere else. Is there a quick way to do this? ...
Hi All, I am very new to LaTex and R, but I am learning on a daily basis. I really am getting into using Eclipse and want to join the party and start automating my work using Sweave; I am excited for the prospects.

I am sure that this must be a dup, but I can't find the right keywords to search for. So I am posting. Right now my latex paragraphs look like this: The paragraph does not start out with an indent. But when you make a new paragraph there is an indent. This is a new paragraph. Can you see the indent? This is another...
