Authors Abstract
Jim Blum, Jonathan W. Duggins For programmers, publishing papers or other documents may be a frustrating task. We show some methods of applying programming in LaTeX and SAS to create styles and structures that can be easily reused and revised, with the added benefit of actually looking good. We build styles for various documents elements including boxes/titles for code, output and logs (and other items). LaTeX tools for numbering sections, programs, output, and other elements inside the document are demonstrated along with making cross-references to such items which automatically update when items are moved or removed. An introduction to the ODS TAGSETS.COLORLATEX destination and the resulting sastable object is also provided. All LaTeX implementations use the Overleaf platform, but other LaTeX environments work as well.
