dante.ctan.org upload: KOMA-Script

Date: October 10, 2007 11:44:06 PM CEST
On Tue, 9 Oct 2007 Markus Kohm submitted a new version of the koma-script bundle. The KOMA-Script bundle provides drop-in replacements for the article/report/book classes with emphasis on typography and versatility. There is also a letter class, different from all other letter classes. It also offers e.g. a package for calculated type areas in the way laid down by the typographer Jan Tschichold, a package for easily changing and defining of page styles, a package for getting not only the current date but also the name of day and a package for getting current time. All these packages may be used not only with KOMA-Script classes but also with standard classes.

KOMA-Script 2007/09/28 v2.97c Copyright (c) Markus Kohm , 1994-2007
KOMA-Script is a versatile bundle of LaTeX2e document classes and packages. It aims to be a replacement to the standard LaTeX2e classes. KOMA-Script does not stop with the features known from the standard classes, but it extends the possibilities in order to provide the user an almost complete working environment.
For installation see INSTALL.txt (english) or INSTALLD.txt (german, UTF-8).
Changes at 2.97c: - improved english manual (almost everything is new) - handling of pseudo-lengths improved (if you are using e-TeX) - option handling improved (new implementation) - some fixes

koma-script – A bundle of versatile classes and packages

The KOMA-Script bundle provides replacements for the article, report, and book classes with emphasis on typography and versatility. There is also a letter class.

The bundle also offers:

  • a package for calculating type areas in the way laid down by the typographer Jan Tschichold,
  • packages for easily changing and defining page styles,
  • a package scrdate for getting not only the current date but also the name of the day, and
  • a package scrtime for getting the current time.

All these packages may be used not only with KOMA-Script classes but also with the standard classes.

Since every package has its own version number, the version number quoted only refers to the version of scrbook, scrreprt, scrartcl, scrlttr2 and typearea (which are the main parts of the bundle).
