It is +possible to put answers in the same document, and display them +immediately, later in the document or not at all. + +The layout of exercise is fully customisable. It is then possible to typeset +long problems, short exercises, questionnaires, etc. + +Usage of the babel package is detected, but not fully supported by now +(only english and french are implemented).
