[texhax] choice of documentstyle upon \jobname

[Susan Dittmar]

Hi all,

I would like to choose the documentclass (in fact, only some of the
documentclass options) according to \jobname. I tried something like

\ifx\jobname{first}
	\documentclass[first]{...}
\else
	\documentclass[second]{...}
\fi

(and some variations thereof), but somehow it never uses the first
set of options even when \typeout{\jobname} yields 'first'.
Where's my mistake?

Thanks in advance,

	Susan
