{Creating a \LaTeX\ class file using a graphical~interface} {Kaveh Bazargan} {Writing \LaTeX\ class files is a very specialized job, needing intimate knowledge of \TeX. This job can be simplified by separating parameters from the \TeX\ commands themselves. Using such parameterization, a user can simply change the parameters and obtain the change required. The technique becomes much more useful if a graphical user interface is used to modify the parameters interactively, and if the user gets instant feedback by seeing the result in the typeset document. I will demonstrate one such system, namely Batch Commander, created using LiveCode. I will show that many uncomplicated class files can be created by a user with minimal knowledge of \TeX.}
