Examples

Well I’ve got latex installed – not at all easily I might add, but it’s up and running now. So I learn a tiny bit about the basics of Latex and start trying to focus my learning on the area I’m most interested in – writing play scripts. So I head off to CTAN (thanks to David Starkoff for pointing that one out) and find the “dramatist” package which appears to do everything I want. Download, install and everything looks good. Then I try to read the documentation…. Sigh. Apart from the use of narrative style which just makes everything exceptionally wordy, it doesn’t include a single example. No, here’s a pathetically simple script just so you can get your head around how to use this package, not even a ridiculously complex script to show off what the package can really do. Nothing, nada, zip. So now I have to learn the intricate details of Latex before I can do anything at all useful instead of just learning as I go along. So if anyone happens to have an example of a play script in latex (using any package) I’d love to get my hands on it…
