Resume doc class
Three years ago I used a resume template to create a resume in LaTeX (attached file). However, when I went to update it The file no longer works with Texshop. This is the editor I have always used.
the error is res.cls not found. Can someone explain how to upload this to cls so that I can use the file?
I have attached the link for the cls. I am not sure what to do with it.

Since you mentioned TeXshop, I'm assuming you're using a Mac. I know very little about macs, so I'm going to fall back on Unix commands, which I think you should be able to use from the Mac terminal. I hope I'm not wrong.
1. Set a variable for the location of your personal TeX tree:
2. Create an appropriate directory to put this .cls file into:
3. Now move into that directory:
4. Now fetch the .cls file from the internet.
(Step 4 above is the step I'm least sure about working on a mac, since I don't know whether or not macs come with curl. All I'm doing is saving the file you linked in the folder I created. The folder is probably something like /Users/<yourname>/texmf/tex/latex/res -- you can manually save the file there yourself if curl is not installed.)
5. Finally, register the file with your TeX file name database:
It should work now. Well, maybe not, since there's an error in your code:
should be:
but then it should work.
And if that's all too much trouble, you can just save the .cls file in the same folder as your .tex file. (It's just "more proper" to have it in a texmf folder especially if you might re-use it.)
1. Set a variable for the location of your personal TeX tree:
Code: Select all
TEXMFHOME="$(kpsewhich -var-value=TEXMFHOME)"
Code: Select all
mkdir -p "$TEXMFHOME/tex/latex/res"
Code: Select all
cd "$TEXMFHOME/tex/latex/res"
Code: Select all
curl -0 http://rpi.edu/dept/arc/training/latex/resumes/res.cls > res.cls
5. Finally, register the file with your TeX file name database:
Code: Select all
texhash "$TEXMFHOME"
Code: Select all
\section{COACHING EXPERIENCE}{\texbf {Tennis Pro} \hfill \textbf{June 2006-Present}} \\
Code: Select all
\section{COACHING EXPERIENCE}{\textbf {Tennis Pro} \hfill \textbf{June 2006-Present}} \\
And if that's all too much trouble, you can just save the .cls file in the same folder as your .tex file. (It's just "more proper" to have it in a texmf folder especially if you might re-use it.)

Re: Resume doc class
Thanks! I will give both a shot. The latter sounds much easier to do. The former is above my knowledge of computers (I think). I appreciate your time.

All you would need to do is open the mac terminal (Applications > Utilities > Terminal) and then copy and paste my commands. Surely if you handle LaTeX you can handle that.coachbennett1981 wrote:The former is above my knowledge of computers (I think). I appreciate your time.

Works great! Thank you
Re: Resume doc class
I am using a .tex file in RStudio, and I am getting the same error message. My file is NOT .cls. Any ideas?
