 +==== Notes ==== 
 +At this moment (09/01/14), all anti-particle numbers are converted into particle numbers.
  
 ===== The PDGlatex()-method ===== ===== The PDGlatex()-method =====
 The class convPDGnumber has the main method **PDGlatex()**, takes as an argument the Monte Carlo number and returns a string with the LaTeX-expression. This method is called internally by **makeTable()**. The class convPDGnumber has the main method **PDGlatex()**, takes as an argument the Monte Carlo number and returns a string with the LaTeX-expression. This method is called internally by **makeTable()**.
 +
 +==== Notes ====
 +At this moment (09/01/14), no anti-particles are implemented.
 +
 +===== How to use it in ROOT/C++ =====
 +The classes have been tested to work with ROOT. To use them, start ROOT and type:
 +  *''gSystem->Load("lib/libToolClasses.so")''
 +  *''BGlatex a''
 +  *''a.makeTable()'' (or with arguments)
 +  *''.q''
 +This should have created a file named **BG_cat.tex** in your directory.
 +
 +===== How to use it in Python =====
 +The classes have not really been tested in Python. The following procedure seems to work, though.
 +Copy the file **libToolClasses.so** in your working directory. Start python and type:
 +  *''import GaudiPython''
 +  *''GaudiPython.loaddict('STLRflx')''
 +  *''import sys, ROOT''
 +  *''import libToolClasses'' It will complain about "dynamic module does not define init function".
 +  *''from ROOT import BGlatex, convPDGnumber'' 
 +  *''a = BGlatex()''
 +  *''a.makeTable()'' (or with arguments)
 +  *CTRL-D
 +This should have created a file named **BG_cat.tex** in your directory.
 +===== Disclaimer =====
 +Most of the above programming was done in a Trial-and-Error fashion and things have not been extensively tested. Feel free to add comments or report bugs.
