# Curriculum Vitae for Alan Orth
A CV written in LaTeX using the [moderncv](http://www.ctan.org/pkg/moderncv) class.
## Why
I decided to start keeping my CV in LaTeX because:
* I can never find my CV when I need it
* I have dozens of files named `resume.doc` on my computer
* LaTeX -> PDF ensures a consisent, beautiful layout
* Writing your CV in a source-based language means you can track it in git (w00t!)
## Usage
To "build" a PDF you simply type:
make
To clean up all generated and intermediate content, type:
make clean

## Pre-requistes for building
Depending on your GNU/Linux distribution the package names may be different. Basically,
you need the `texlive` package, as well as whichever "extras" package contains the
moderncv stuff.
On Arch Linux:
sudo pacman -Sy texlive-core texlive-latexextra
Others: send a pull request with instructions for your distro.
