This is the LaTeX code that is used to layout an advertising page in neural mag. It is capsuled in a shellscript and partly generated. Different to wtf, I preferred this time to have a single file (a bash script), instead of separating into script and markup-file. Because some of the LaTeX code is generated by a script anyway, I decided to let the script write the whole tex file.
