As always, supporting materials (which are generally certifiable books) can be quite useful to readers of papers submitted to ACL2 workshops. If you submit them, it will be assumed (unless told otherwise) that the author(s) do not mind if such materials are eventually distributed with ACL2 workshop materials, where minor revisions are made from time to time so that they continue to work with new releases of ACL2.
If you submit supporting materials, it would be helpful (though this is
optional) if you'd (1) develop your books using relative pathnames or
:dir :system in your include-book forms, and (2) use
the standard Makefile, which you can do as follows. First
download this file:
Save this tar file to directory acl2-sources/books/, and then in that directory execute:
tar xvf support-2004.tar
This will create directory
acl2-sources/books/workshops/2004/matt/support/. Change "matt" to
your name. The Makefile in support/ has comments
that you may find helpful. For more complex examples, download the previous
workshops from ftp://ftp.cs.utexas.edu:/pub/moore/acl2/v2-8/acl2-sources/books/workshops.tar.gz
and gunzip/untar in acl2-sources/books/.
Feel free to ask Matt Kaufmann for help with this process.
