The files in this directory are needed to produce a successful latex run of a contribution to the Proceedings. In order
to anticipate the work required to run a collection of contributions into an integrated whole with a table of contents,
etc, there is a driver file, driverFile.tex, which pulls in the subsidiary files, also included in this directory.
You should copy these subsidiary files to the directory you will use to do your latex'ing.  driverFile.tex is the
file you should actually run to latex your contribution. Near the bottom of driverFile.tex, there is a line that you
should change to include the actual TEX file of the contribution. In the example driverFile.tex, the file referenced is
sampleFile.tex. You should change this line to the name of your file. Please do not change anything else in this file.
When you latex driverFile.tex, it will produce a dvi file, driverFile.dvi, that is the dvi file with your paper in the
Proceedings format.

One of the subsidiary files pulled in by driverFile.tex is workshopsym.tex. This is a file derived from a similar file used
in BABAR that contains convenient macros for many of the particles, reactions, units, etc, that are commonly used in writing
a paper on B physics. If you use the macros in workshopsym.tex you will not only save time and labor for yourself, you will
also save a lot of time for the Proceedings editors as they try to produce a volume with a uniform look. For ready reference,
there is a file, workshopsym_tables.tex, which, when latex'ed, produces a file workshopsym_tables.dvi (actually already in the
directory), that has tables of the macros and how to invoke them. Please note that if you want to improve workshopsym.tex with
additional macros, it is necessary to also modify workshopsym_tables.tex so that these macros will be included in the reference
tables. It is probably best to send suggestions for new or improved macros to me and I will put them into both files in a
consistent manner.
