An essential LaTeX package for computer scientists: algorithm2e

July 20th, 2006

One LaTeX package I find particular useful is algorithm2e. As it is not included in tetex I installed it on my workstation:

pat@merkur:/~# mkdir ~/texmf/tex/latex/algorithm2e
pat@merkur:/~# cp algorithme2e.sty ~/texmf/tex/latex/algorithm2e
pat@merkur:/~# texhash

Now you (i.e. the user that just did the steps above) can use a simple \usepackage{algorithm2e} in your documents and LaTeX should find the package on its own.
