thanks for all the replies! while doing research about latex (how to use it, at least the very very very minimal basics), i also learned the difference between a 'thesis' and a 'dissertation' ... more lingo.

anywho, thanks to Ed to providing the sample latex files, etc from UNC!

jon --> i'm in the biochem department (and i'll go out on a limb and say i'm the first to use latex to write a thesis, at least in long, long while)

i'll be writing it primarily under OS X and partly under Linux ... so any tools you guys think would help me out ... please forward along! so far, i'm using NEDIT ... :)

also, if anyone from NCSU (presently or previously) has any sample latex files or style files i can look at to compare with what I already have (thanks again Ed!) ... please contact me! it seems the statistics department (including biomath, etc) and computer science department uses it frequently ... so I may try to email the NCSU LUG for files too (sorry in advance if you get this information twice if you are subscribed to both)
