Is there a style/class to help writing a nice

a photo).

- CurVe has this facility.It's dead easy to write your own macros as you go. How may CVs are you
going to prepare?
E.g.
\Job(10/1980,12/1993){Floor Sweeper}{ACME widgets}{%
Managed waste collection and disposal
\BeginBullets
\Bullet Evaluated new dust collection devices (brooms, dustpans etc)
\Bullet Managed collected trade waste
\End Bullets
}%
\Job(1/1994,){CEO}{Mega Corp}{%
Played golf a lot, kept 10 mistresses, sailed yacht
}%
Implement the macros accordingly.
e.g.
\long\def\Job(#1,#2)#3#4{%
\hspace{10em}%
{\itshape \hbox to 50bp{#1-#2\hfill}}
{\bfseries #3}
\par
#4
\par\vskip10bp
}
-Look at currvita and the eso-pic package. Worked perfectly for me.
