Tex adventures

Today I had a fun time trying to add the dirtree style to my tex install. In the end it was rather simple with the few things that you have to guess on an ubuntu system. The procedure was:

1. Download Dirtree.
2. Run "latex dirtree.ins"
3. Copy the dirtree.sty and dirtree.tex somewhere near my other .sty files. "locate *.sty"
4. Run "texhash" to update the tex install and make it aware of the new style.

I was all listed here: http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/generic/dirtree. Except the last step for some reason. Today I also made more tests for my thesis codebase. I wrote a section on testing methods where you only have expected properties of the outcome, and had fun trying to calculate some variances.
