+ manuscripts and lecture notes
+ - many math packages providing a tremendous nuber of macros for mathematical
+ texts
+ - layout providing a non-empty parskip with extended length corrections and
+ new section definition commands
+ - easy label creation for counters
+ - German language tools and predefined abbreviations

+
+AkkTeX summary
+
+AkkTeX consists of a collection of new LaTeX document classes and a very large
+set of LaTeX packages with hundreds of new macros simplifying the creation of
+scientific papers. The packages have all been created within years of practical
+work with LaTeX.
+
+AkkTeX provides document classes for mathematical lecture notes, elegant
+working sheets, thesis works and many more. They are designed for easy-to-use
+generation of the specified kinds of documents.
+
+Additionally, the AkkTeX packages provide a tremendous number of macros,
+especially for mathematic texts. Their goal is to reduce the creation time of
+documents to a minimum, such that, for example, to type a mathematic paper does
+not take longer than to write it by hand. Another advantage over usual LaTeX
+typing is that the macro names are subject-specific, not symbol-oriented.
+That is, the author can think less about the LaTeX symbol names, but instead,
+can call them by their meaning. The \set macro is just the simplest example.
+Not only typing becomes more intuitive, but also, reading the LaTeX source code,
+changing and refactoring it is made easier.
