| 4 | +Prerequisites |
| 5 | +------------- |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +In order to build the scala reference, you will require the following |
| 8 | +software packages: |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +- Pandoc v1.10.1 or higher (http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/) |
| 11 | +- TeX-Live (https://www.tug.org/texlive/) |
| 12 | +- The luximono font - this does not ship with TeX-Live by default due to |
| 13 | + license restrictions, but it can be easily installed using |
| 14 | + the ["getnonfreefonts" script](https://www.tug.org/fonts/getnonfreefonts/). |
| 15 | + A short guide on using this to get luximono can be found on the |
| 16 | + TeX Stackexchange [here](http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/22157/how-to-use-the-luximono-font-with-tex-live). |
| 17 | +- The Heuristica font - this is an extension of the free version of the Adobe |
| 18 | + Utopia font. This must be installed as a system font for the PDF to |
| 19 | + build, and you can find the appropriate font package for your system |
| 20 | + here: https://code.google.com/p/evristika/ |

| 23 | +General Advice for editors |
5 | 24 | -------
|

|
7 | 26 | - All files must be saved as UTF-8: ensure your editors are configured
|
8 | 27 | appropriately.
|
| 28 | +- Leave two empty lines between each section, regardless of level of nesting. |
| 29 | + Leave two empty lines at the end of every markdown file that forms a part |
| 30 | + of the main specification when compiled. |
9 | 31 | - Use of the appropriate unicode characters instead of the latex modifiers
|
10 | 32 | for accents, etc. is necessary. For example, é instead of \'e. Make use of
|
11 | 33 | the fact that the content is unicode, google the necessary characters if
|
12 | 34 | you don't know how to type them directly.
