%% usmthesis.cls 2023/09/17 version V1.7_JBH_Ooi_3
%
% Since there have been no noticeable updates, I have updated the usmthesis.cls
% and usmthesis.tex files to make the output closer to USM Thesis Template V1.6.
% I am not a professional LaTeX user, so perhaps there are cleaner ways to achieve
% the changes that I have made. Regardless, I hope this helps until USM finally
% provides their own LaTeX template. This uses APA 7th Ed.
%
% Exact changes can be found in the comments and usmthesis.cls. I have added some
% new features that you might find useful. Refer to the official documentation or
% LaTeX Stack Exchange on how those packages work.
%
% Many thanks to Lim Lian Tze and wnarrfin for maintaining the codes so far.

%% usmthesis.cls 2016/12/08 version V1.7.
%%
%% IMPORTANT MESSAGE (Dec 2016)
%% Due to the recent numerous changes requested by IPS, USM to different
%% candidates -- often conflicting even within the same week -- without much
%% consistency nor in black in white, I have found it increasingly difficult
%% to maintain a coherent version. I have therefore decided to provide some
%% options that seem to be favored by IPS on different occasions; but will no
%% longer update the template until an updated formatting guidelines with clear
%% instructions and concrete samples is published.
%%
%% THERE WILL BE NO FURTHER UPDATES UNTIL IPS-USM PUBLISHES AN OFFICIAL
%% UPDATED FORMATTING GUIDELINES WITH CONCRETE, CLEAR INSTRUCTIONS.
%%
%% Individual requests for help to modify this version for your needs will be
%% handled on a case by case basis, depending on my mood, perhaps for a fee.
%% Requests for help to modify past versions will NOT be entertained.
%% Please read http://tex.my/how-to-ask-for-latex-related-help-effectively/.
%%
%% (Yes I'm that tired and frustrated. I know everyone just want to graduate,
%% but I am by now genuinely put off by the tone of some requests with rude
%% attitudes, unclear descriptions, flip-flopping conditions, etc for something
%% that was originally for my own use.)
%%
%% Usmthesis _was_ fun; but it has ceased to be so for me.
%%
%% Submit a git pull request on https://github.com/liantze/usmthesis
%% if you wish to contribute your changes. No timeframe is set for approvals.
%% I cannot check through any edited usmthesis.cls of any version without
%% CVS.
%%
%% Oh and if you'd like to adapt this template (the .cls and/or the .tex) for
%% your institution, that's perfectly fine, but at least keep the license
%% (LPPL 1.3) and the original author (me) won't you? It's just normal decency.
%% THANK you. :-)

%% If you prefer -- and have been allowed -- to use

%%
%% OTHER IMPORTANT OPTIONS:
%% singespacetitle - Make title on cover and title
%% page single-spaced.
%%
%% chapnumwords — Make chapter titles be `Chapter One'
%% tocchapnumwords — Make the ToC use `Chaper One' too
%% (Engineering IPS seems to like the above two settings)
%%
%% tocpage These options will add a ``Page'' label at the
%% lotpage top of the Table of Contents, List of Tables,
%% lofpage List of Figures and List of Plates respectively.
%% loppage I don't know lah, one moment IPS says must add at
%% the top of all these lists; one month later say
%% only the ToC, a few months later say don't add at all.
%% Find, mix-and-match yourself based on the instrustions you got.
%%
%% tocCAPSfront - Sometimes IPS wants the ``Table of Contents'', ``List of
%% Figures'', ``Abstract'' etc to be all-caps in the ToC;
%% sometimes they don't. Use this option to make them ALL CAPS.
%%
%% tocCAPSref - Similar to the above but for the ``References''.
%% tocCAPSapp - Similar to the above but for the ``Appendices''.

% Loaded longtable package for tables that may span several pages.
% This may be useful as an alternative to table. Refer to the
% documentation for usage. Safe to leave alone. If you decide to
% remove this, remove the following setting as well.
\usepackage{longtable}
%% Joseph Ooi:
% Change spacing between lines in longtable for p and m columns.
% Use P{length} instead of p{length} to reduce vertical spacing.
% Use M{length} to have both reduced vertical spacing and centred
% vertical alignment in longtable.
% This might also work with normal tables. Haven't checked that.
