Hm, I'm just wondering why it aligns everything perfectly after a paragraph and not just directly in the beginning. Thanks anyway.

Sorry. If you fill in the text below the section with a lipsum to fill a whole page, the second column is not aligned with the first column text because \section{} uses about 3.5 lines, and not 3 or 4. After a paragraph in the second column half a line is added by LaTeX automatically, but before ...

Hi folks,

I just started a small document to write some notes:

\documentclass[11pt,twocolumn]{article}

\usepackage{url}
\usepackage[english]{babel}

\begin{document}
\title{Notes: Research Seminar 2010}
\author{\small{me}}
\date{\today}
\maketitle

\section{blubb}
blubb
\end{document}

There's ...

got it with a modified dcu.bst.

Hey guys, I need to print this thesis tomorrow, so any help is really appreciated.

I tried to modify the URL function in dcu.bst, but that's horrible.

Well, if I would do a simple search&replace, why just can't LaTeX do that for me. Ok, it's not too much work with my six chapters, but how with a book, 20-30 chapters? Search&replace in each file can be really annoying.

Sorry, I forgot the most important part ... Bibliography-Style is dcu.

\bibliographystyle{dcu}

All right, thanks. I hoped there's an automatic solution in LaTeX.

I'll try to explain with an example: Let's take the word 'LaTeX'. It appears 10 times on various pages inside the thesis. Do I need to put an '\index{}' around very appearance, or just the first one?

Hi there,

I've got a minor question on the same topic: If I define a word as an index, do I need to put any instance of this word to the index by hand? Is there some kind of automatic indexing?
