name: Simple Application Cover Letter
version: 1
description: |
A simple cover letter template for applications.
instructions: |
This template allows you to typeset cover letters for applications. It is
intended to be run simply by writing the main body of the cover letter in a
Markdown file and provide some metadata, including addresses, as YAML
frontmatter variables. You have the following variables available:
* `author`: An object with information about yourself. It must contain the
following keys:
* `firstname`: Your firstname, and potential middle names
* `lastname`: Your last, or family name
* `address`: This is a list of address lines. These appear on the top-right.
* `email`: Your email address. Appears below the address.
* `phone`: Your phone number. Appears below the address.
* `subject`: This is the subject line of the cover letter. Appears between
addressée and the main body of your letter.
* `to_address`: This is a list of address lines to where you are addressing
the letter.
* `attachments`: If you have attachments to your application (such as a CV),
and want to include them on your letter, list them here.
* `attachments_title`: By default, the attachment section will be headed by
"Attachments". Here you can customize this (e.g., by translating).
Note that you also have some of the standard Pandoc variables such as
`fontsize` available to use in your frontmatter, too.
