This repository contains a few example templates to use with scriptorium, which provides a system by which LaTeX templates can be integrated in a MultiMarkdown workflow for writing academic papers more easily.
Clone this repository into the templates directory of scriptorium:
scriptorium template -i https://github.com/jasedit/simple_templates
In the metadata header of a paper created using the scriptorium new -t report command, the last two lines of the metadata in paper.mmd should look akin to:
latex input: report/setup.tex
latex footer: report/footer.tex
Where report in both lines is the template in use.
