===Chapter .tex files===
 
For all of the other chapters and appendices, you create a .tex file called CHAPTERNAME.tex, and then you call that chapter in the thesis.tex file using \include{CHAPTERNAME} as described above. (Remember that you can't run/typeset the individual chapters. You just create or change CHAPTERNAME.tex, and save it. The next time your run thesis.tex, the changes will appear in the PDF.)
 
You don't have to give the .tex file the same name as the chapter itself. (You probably don't want to if it's long.) You name the chapter using the first line in the .tex file.
 
Each chapter starts out with the following line:
 
\chapter{This Is The Full Chapter Title, and Spaces are OK Here}\label{ch:chapname}.
 
This allows you to name the chapter, and the code does the formatting for you. The \label part allows you to refer to the chapter later. (See below for more on \label.)
