\section{Introduction}
The package \texttt{procIAGssymp.sty} provides some (re-)definitions
of \LaTeX\ commands. The main pourpose of the present text is to give
an example of the use of the package \texttt{procIAGssymp.sty}.
The content is just an essential explenation of the use of the same package.
\par\noindent Please refer to the file \texttt{procIAGssymp.pdf}  for
a complete documentation and to \texttt{README.txt} for general
introductory information.
\section{Suggestions for the user}
\subsection{General page lay-out}
The general lay-out of the pages is controlled by some assignment
made by \texttt{procIAGssymp.sty} and by the use of the class
\texttt{article} that must be loaded with the proper options, i.e.
\verb+[a4paper,twocolumn,10pt]+.
\subsection{Top-matter}
The title and the author(s) must be prepared with
\verb+\title{ . . .}+  and \verb+\author{ . . .}+ and they will be
printed by \verb+\maketitle+.
If there are several authors, their names must be separated by \verb+\and+.
The authors that share the same address must be listed consecutively and must
be followed by \verb+\thanks{. . .}+ (with the address as argument).
The use of \verb+\thanks{. . .}+ referred  to the title is not appropriate
because this command has been redefined.
\subsection{More about the format of the top-matter}
The main structure of the topmatter is governed by \verb+\@maketitle+
which is properly redefined.  \par\noindent
The command \verb+\thanks+ has been redefined to print the
authors' address immediately after the  authors' names.
The  new form of this command makes it unsuitable
to put a note to the title.
\subsection{Sectioning}
The use of \verb+\section{. . . }+  and \verb+\subsection{. . . }+
can be done as in any \LaTeX\ paper.
These commands have been redefined so that they
produce the first level and second level headers in the proper format. All
the other sectioning commands have been redefined with a coherent style. The
command \verb+\section*{References}+ can be used to start the reference list.
One of the following sections is just a test of the various sectioning commands.
\section{Test of sectioning (1st level)}
\subsection{Test of sectioning (2nd level)}
\subsubsection{Test of sectioning (3rd level)}
This is just an example of the use and abuse
of \verb+\section+, \verb+\subsection+ and
\verb+\subsubsection+. We can also test \verb+\paragraph+ and
\verb+\subparagraph+.
\paragraph{Paragraph} This is a paragraph, headed by \verb+\paragraph+.
\subparagraph{Subparagraph} This is a  sub paragraph. And the section
ends here.
