This repo's files are a simple template for writing a basic two-column paper typeset in LaTeX. Drop references in the mybib.bib file in standard bibtex format (eg: copy/paste from Google Scholar) and modify the section titles and body in the main .tex file. Then render with commands like (you can leave off the files' tex/dvi/etc extensions here):
$ latex $filename
$ bibtex $filename
$ latex $filename
$ latex $filename
$ dvipdf $filename #(alternatively MacTex has "dvipdft" executable here)
These commands are also sitting in a comment in the .tex file as a reminder.
...and share the resulting $filename.pdf!
