I originally made these effectively <h2> headers because I didn't want to compete with the GitHub headings when the file was viewed on their web interface. As it turns out, GitHub renders this in an HTML5 article tag, which sits in its own world on the page, so it shouldn't matter. Signed-off-by: Alan Orth <alan.orth@gmail.com>

# Curriculum Vitae for Alan Orth
|
|
A CV written in LaTeX using the [moderncv](http://www.ctan.org/pkg/moderncv) class.
|
|
|
|
## Sample
|
|
Here's what it looks like with real data, using the "classic" style and blue color scheme:

|
|
|
|
## 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 consistent, 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.
