A zine about Linux, typeset in LaTeX.
|
||||
|
||||
The avatar image is by [Larry Ewing](http://www.isc.tamu.edu/~lewing/)
|
||||
and [Simon Budig](http://www.home.unix-ag.org/simon/). Licensing info is [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Tux.svg).
|
||||
|
||||
The pdf version is free. You can find it inside the `build` folder for each issue. I will also issue a release, so you can check there, as well.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to buy a paper version with a fancy colored cover, printed up as a little booklet and saddle stapled (just perfect for reading on the go), you can buy them from my etsy shop. I'll include a link here as I add each issue.
|
||||
|
||||
## Forum
|
||||
|
||||
If you have questions or suggestions, you can join the [forum for this zine](https://forums.kjodle.net/forumdisplay.php?fid=15) on my website. I am trying to avoid social media as much as possible, and also hate communicating through apps like Etsy, Gumroad, or Patreon (for reasons I may talk about at some point). If you want to contribute or collaborate, the forum would be a good place to start.
|
||||
|
||||
## Support
|
||||
|
||||
If you like this, but don't want to buy, you can always [donate](https://www.paypal.me/kjodle) via PayPal. (No PayPal account is necessary.) It's greatly appreciated.

## Paper Copies
|
||||
|
||||
**Issue 004**
|
||||
|
||||
Issue #4 is available on etsy at [https://www.etsy.com/listing/1747850159/the-codex-a-zine-about-linux-issue-4](https://www.etsy.com/listing/1747850159/the-codex-a-zine-about-linux-issue-4).
|
||||
|
||||
**Issue 003**
|
||||
|
||||
You can buy this on etsy at [https://www.etsy.com/listing/1507867746/the-codex-a-zine-about-linux-issue-3](https://www.etsy.com/listing/1507867746/the-codex-a-zine-about-linux-issue-3). I don't have metric versions available for download as of yet (12 July 2023) but I am working on it.
|
||||
|
||||
**Issue 002**
|
||||
|
||||
You can buy a paper copy of issue [#002](https://www.etsy.com/listing/1262188799/the-codex-a-zine-about-linux-issue-2) in my Etsy shop. Unfortunately, I can only ship to North America at the present time.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are outside of North America and would like to purchase a digital download which you can then print out in booklet form and staple yourself, you can buy it [here](https://www.etsy.com/listing/1252039564/the-codex-2-metric-download).
|
||||
|
||||
If you have issues with Etsy (and who doesn't?), you can also buy them from **Gumroad**:
|
||||
|
||||
* [Physical copy (North America only)](https://iswpw.gumroad.com/l/codex002)
|
||||
* [Digital A4 copy (everywhere)](https://iswpw.gumroad.com/l/codex002-A4)
|
||||
|
||||
**Issue 001**
|
||||
|
||||
You can buy issue [#001](https://git.kjodle.net/kjodle/the-codex/src/tag/Issue-001) on my etsy shop [here](https://www.etsy.com/listing/1099735271/the-codex-a-zine-about-linux). Use the coupon **GIT20** to get 20% off all zines.

|
||||
## Packages
|
||||
|
||||
I used a handful of packages to make this document, which I've listed below, along to their page on CTAN where you can read the full documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
* [graphicx](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/graphicx) — Provides extended support for images.
|
||||
* [kpfonts](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/kpfonts) — A different font than the AMS fonts, which is a little heavier and easier to read for some.
|
||||
* [makeidx](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/makeidx) — Creates indexes (or, indices, if you prefer). I didn't actually use this one. Maybe next time.
|
||||
* [geometry](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/geometry) — Flexible and complete interfact to document dimensions.
|
||||
* [fancyhdr](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/fancyhdr) — Gives you more control over page headers and footers.
|
||||
* [multicol](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/multicol) — Provides for more than two or more columns in selected areas.
|
||||
* [wrapfig](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/wrapfig) — Allows you to wrap text around figures.
|
||||
* [hyperref](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/hyperref) — Support for hypertext (i.e., links). (Protip: use the *hidelinks* option to get rid of the annoying red boxes around links in the pdf form. Thanks to reddit user 0b0101011001001011 for this tip!)
|
||||
* [tabto](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/tabto-ltx) — Allows you to set tab stops. (I used this one to get multiple paragraphs in a footnote. Still scratching my head about that one.)
|
||||
* [ulem](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/ulem) — A package for making lines through text. In my case, I just wanted a simple strikethrough.
|
||||
|
||||
Also reddit user -LeopardShark- recommended using the package [microtype](https://www.ctan.org/pkg/microtype) to get finer typographical control. ~~Maybe in the next issue.~~ I'm actually using this in issue 002 and you can tell the difference by comparing page 2 in both issues and looking at the placement of the Creative Commons icon.
|
||||
You can buy this at [on Etsy here](https://www.etsy.com/shop/wolfgangswishlist/).
|
||||
|
||||
You can also read more about it on [my zine website](https://just13.click/).
