Hello guys,
I'm sorry to bother you with something that's must have been answered
many times, but I can't find a quick answer in the documentation.
I've just discovered the beauty of multipart documents. But I almost
instantly ran into problems. What happens is the following. I have a big
document (thesis :)) with a lot of math-macro commands defined at the
very beginning. After my recent casual browsing through the
documentation I rediscovered that I can have my long document split into
parts.
Happily, I divideded my thesis into files: each chapter now has its own
file. The problem is how to share the macros defined originally once at
the top of the long document. I created one more file containing only
the macros and then I "inputted" it into each of the files with the
individual chapters.
The chapters compile fine, however, the master won't compile because of
multiple definition of the same macros.
So, I'm looking for conditional compilation... something from C header
files..
Or is there something more elegant that I'm not seeing?
THANK YOU!
David
