* Getting Started
This is a simple template to produce a scientific poster with emacs and
org-mode. It includes a Makefile so that the poster can be created from
the command line by running the 'make' command.
 
** Prerequisites
To create the poster from the command line, GNU emacs and texlive must
be installed together with some additional emacs and texlive
packages. Specifically, the following software and associated libraries
are required:
*** texlive
**** xetex
**** latexmk
*** emacs
**** org-mode
**** ess
**** org-ref

*** R
**** pacman
**** cowplot
**** ggplot2

* Installing
Download the repository and run tar xvfz on the tarball.

* Creating the poster
Change to the org-mode-poster directory and run 'make poster'.

* Built With
src_bash{lsb_release -sd} {{{results(Ubuntu 17.10)}}} on emacs
src_elisp{emacs-version} {{{results(25.2.2)}}} and org-mode
src_elisp{org-version} {{{results(9.1.7)}}}.
