Subject: new cv-resume module
Date: Mon, 29 Jan 2007 12:32:08 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <op.tmxkjuxqnx1yh1@walayah-main> (raw)

Dear gang,

A couple of days ago I decided to port my old LaTeX cv to ConTeXt. Could  
not find any ConTeXt templates, and the currvita.sty referred to in the  
ConTeXt archives was ugly compared to my present cv. So I wrote an  
experimental module which I present here.

Following is the module and a sample file. Please give me your suggestions  
for improvement, and any of you should feel free to post it to the wiki.

Best
Idris
