GRtensor commands

By
I would try to collect some useful resources for GRtensor package of Maple.
I contains a host of commands which are very useful but the documentation is scarce.

A good page to learn the applicability of the commands through example is
http://www.smf.mx/~dgfm-smf/TallerVI/CursoSussman/hoja2/hoja21.html

All GRtensor outputs needs o be simplified one way or another and GRtensor provides specialized routines to accomplish just that. The gralter command does the job instead of the Maple command simplify.

And everyone needs to know the keyboard shortcuts of any program they are using. It makes life efficient.

For example, I was unable to enter the Greek symbols for a long time till I found that it is very easy to do so in Maple. Just type the Greek word in English and press escape key. A menu pops up displaying all names that can be entered which begins with the letters entered. Most of the time it is the first entry. So I just start typing lamb ESC and press enter to get the Î» symbol.

Substitute:

To calc. with a general form and then substitute the functional form use subs command.

So if I have to calc. the G_ab of a complicated metric which is of the f(r) metric form then I would instead calc. using the f(r) metric and then substitute the functional form of the f(r) .




But this works only for individual components of a tensor which are extracted by the grcomponent command. To apply the substitution on an entire tensor w have to use the grmap command.

Fastest way to send multiple drafts from gmail

By
People claim that the fastest way to send multiple email drafts is to use Gmail IMAP with email client like Outlook or Evolution or Thunderbird. But I have found this is not true. Because Thunderbird and Evolution etc. email clients treats the drafts as emails still to be edited. So it is not just simple select all and hit send. Each email draft has to be opened and sent separately. That is a lot of clicks and mouse movements, wasting precious time and energy. I have a better solution which involves minimum keystrokes and mouse usage. Efficiency booster technique for sending emails. If someone is feeling adventurous and want to try it from the Gmail interface itself, here's how to do it in the fastest possible manner. It involves using the mouse once. Select the first draft. Gmail would open a new email box and put the cursor inside the box to write. Press TAB once to go the Send button. Press ENTER to send. Now Gmail sends it and the box is gone but the highlight goes to the last...

Changing the font size of section headings in LaTex

By
You have several ways to do so: 1.- A direct redefinition of \section: \makeatletter \renewcommand\section{\@startsection{section}{1}{\z@}%                                   {-3.5ex \@plus -1ex \@minus -.2ex}%                                   {2.3ex \@plus.2ex}%                                   {\normalfont\large\bfseries}} \makeatother 2.- By means of the titlesec package: \usepackage{titlesec} \titleformat{\section}{\large\bfseries}{\thesection}{1em}{} 3.- By means of the sectsty package: \usepackage{sectsty} \sectionfont{\large} source : http://www.latex-community.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=3245   Now, I would explain the titlesec package a bit more (because it seems easier to me and...
