In order to use the Frame thesis template you first need to copy some of the files into your account: athena% cd athena% mkdir thesis athena% attach thesis athena% cp /mit/thesis/frame/Frame5/thesis.book ~/thesis/ athena% cp /mit/thesis/frame/Frame5/thesis*.doc ~/thesis/ Then start up FrameMaker. Select "New" from the main frame window. In the dialog box, double click on "Contributed", then double click on "Thesis". You will then want to choose "cover.doc". When the template appears make sure to use "Save As" to save the document in your own directory. You will need to repeat this for "abstract.doc" and "chapter.doc". NOTE: You may want to do "chapter.doc" first, as this includes the instructions for using the template. Again, the instructions are not fully complete (especially in terms of creating the bibliography), but you should be able to write the thesis with what is there. last updated: 4/19/96
