Agilent (n=E9e HP) has manuals for some of their older linear supplies
online, including schematics.  These are some nice supplies and worthy
of study.

If I ever build myself a supply I'll have an analog meter for current
and a digital meter for voltage.   Why?  I usually run the supply in
constant-voltage mode, so the voltage doesn't change much.  The
current does change and it's easier to watch an analog meter out of
the corner of your eye.  If you do a lot of low-power design a
multiple-range current meter might be useful.
