Latex Template

This repository contains custom.sty, a small reusable LaTeX package providing checklist symbols, framed quotes, and simple comment macros you can drop into other projects.

Quick usage

1. Copy custom.sty into your project folder (the same folder as main.tex) or install it into your local texmf tree.
2. In your document preamble add:

\documentclass{article}
% (optional) if you need specific xcolor options, load xcolor before custom:
% \usepackage[dvipsnames]{xcolor}
\usepackage{custom}
\begin{document}
...
\end{document}

3. If you need to pass package-specific options (for example color name sets for xcolor), load that package with options before \usepackage{custom} so the options take effect.

Placing custom.sty alongside your main.tex

If you put custom.sty in the same folder as your main.tex, LaTeX will find it automatically when you write \usepackage{custom} in the preamble. No installation into texmf is required for local project use.

If you put it in a subfolder which is in the same folder with your main.tex, then you need to specify the relative path to the style file, like this:

\usepackage{subfolder/custom}

Dependencies

custom.sty loads the following packages internally:

• xcolor
• pifont
• enumitem
• amssymb
• xparse
• ifthen
• mdframed

You generally do not need to \usepackage these yourself — custom.sty loads them — but if you need to set options for any of them, load that package first in your preamble.

Notes

• Exported macros include \cmark, \xmark, \done, \gcheck, \unsure, and \wei (a comment macro). They are short names and may collide with other packages; consider renaming or namespacing if you reuse them across many packages.
