[texhax] Chapter heading

[wei qin]

Thanks, Herbert. I found out that after deleting the code from the class file, the heading works perfectly. The code is apparently useless and shadows the heading definition in report.cls.

        You have to redefine "chaptermark", which now says to print nothing! I don't know what you did, but in the report.cls file, chaptermark is chock full of neat stuff.
        You should find report.cls (usually where latex.ltx is), and fix it up.

Hi,
 
   While I was typesetting my thesis, some mysterious changes occured to the headings. It was "Chapter 1: introduction", and now it becomes simply "Introduction". I couldn't figure out the difference. The style file that I used defines the headings with the following code.
 
\LoadClass[12pt,letterpaper,onecolumn]{report}[1996/10/31]
 
%% PAGE HEADINGS
\if at twoside
    \def\ps at plain{%
        \def\@evenhead{}\def\@oddhead{}%
        \def\@evenfoot{%
            \null\hfil\rmfamily\thepage\quad{\slshape\leftmark}\hfil\null}%
        \def\@oddfoot{%
            \null\hfil{\slshape\rightmark}\quad\rmfamily\thepage\hfil\null}%
        \def\chaptermark##1{}%
        \def\sectionmark##1{}%
    }
    \def\ps at headings{%
        \def\@evenfoot{}\def\@oddfoot{}%
        \def\@evenhead{%
            \rmfamily\thepage\quad{\slshape\leftmark}\hfil\null}%
        \def\@oddhead{%
            \null\hfil{\slshape\rightmark}\quad\rmfamily\thepage}%
        \def\chaptermark##1{\markboth {##1}{}}%
        \def\sectionmark##1{\markright %
            {\ifnum \c at secnumdepth >\z@ \thesection\ \fi ##1}}%
    }
\else
    \def\ps at plain{%
        \def\@evenhead{}\def\@oddhead{}\def\@evenfoot{}%
        \def\@oddfoot{%
            \null\hfil{\slshape\rightmark}\quad\rmfamily\thepage\hfil\null}%
        \def\chaptermark##1{}%
        \def\sectionmark##1{}%
    }
    \def\ps at headings{%
        \def\@evenfoot{}\def\@oddfoot{}\def\@evenhead{}%
        \def\@oddhead{%
            \null\hfil{\slshape\rightmark}\quad\rmfamily\thepage}%
        \def\chaptermark##1{\markright {##1}{}}%
    }
\fi
 
  The change happens to both twoside and oneside cases. Please point out to me what may cause the change and how to go back to the old heading style. Thanks in advance.
