+% HISTORY:
+2013/01/19 v0.7 - extracted from `exsheets' package; this also lead to a
+ slightly new syntax and a few new options for it
+2013/04/04 v0.8a - corrected \seq_length:N => \seq_count:N
+2013/04/07 v0.9 - protected internal commands where appropriate
+ - made enumerated item referenceable with \label{}
+ and \ref{}; this introduced new options:
+ * the former `label-format' is now `counter-format'
+ * new: `label-format'
+ - changed defaults for `label-width' and `label-offset'
+ - ensure that the `after-item-skip' is only
+ inserted in between rows
+ - new option `after-item-skip'
+ - improvements when label are set with optional argument:
+ * a provided but empty argument is now correctly recognized
+ * the counter is _not_ stepped anymore for enumerated
+ lists when the optional argument is provided
+ - new command \startnewitemline that forces the next item to
+ be put at the beginning of a row
+2013/04/22 v0.9a - new option `item-indent'
+ - synchronized version number with `exsheets' until now but
+ won't any more
+2013/12/03 v0.9b - add missing \noindent for the case when \listparindent is
+ non-zero, fixes http://tex.stackexchange.com/q/148082/5049
+2014/05/11 v0.9c - remove definition of the \task macro: it is not necessary
+ for `tasks' to function but it conflicts e.g. with `ltxdoc'
+ class
+2014/07/20 v0.10 - new option `debug'
+ - new option `column-sep
+ - renamed a few internal variables
+ - remove package from the `exsheets' bundle and distribute
+ it as package of its own
+ - new: optional bang to a \task forces an item to use a full
+ line (\task!)
+ - new: optional star to a \task forces an item to use the
+ complete remaining line (\task*); the star has itself has
+ an optional argument for specifying the number of columns
+ to span (\task*(<num>))
+2014/07/29 v0.10a - bug-fix: correct typo in option definition of `column-sep'
+ - insert before/after skip with \vspace*
+ - remove unnecessary (and unused) arguments of
+ \__tasks_task:nn
+ - add \strut to the end of an item
+2016/05/03 v0.11 - new option: `item-format'
+ - some changes to how the list is displayed, especially
+ regarding spacing -- it now better resembles the standard
+ lists
+2016/05/04 v0.11a - enable `style' option globally again
+2016/08/13 v0.12 - the item indent and label width and label offset now play
+ together like one would expect: an item indent of 0pt will
+ align the complete item with the margin and the needed
+ overlap for the label is reserved

+\section{Motivation}
+Originally \Tasks\ has been an integral part of the
+\ExSheets\changedversion{0.7} package. However, users told me that it indeed
+could be useful to have it as a stand-alone package not having to load the
+whole \ExSheets\ beast just for having the \env{tasks} environment available.
+Since I agree with this the environment has been extracted into a package if
+its own, \Tasks. Since then \Tasks{} has been distributed as a package of its
+own but as part of the \ExSheets{} bundle\changedversion{0.10}. With v0.10 I
+decided to make it a completely independent package. So the relation to
+\ExSheets{} only is a historical one.
+
+The reason for the \env{tasks} environment is an unwritten agreement in German
+maths textbooks (exspecially in (junior) high school textbooks) to organize
+exercises in columns counting horizontally rather than vertically. That is
+what \code{tasks} primarily is for. If you don't need this feature you're
+better off using traditional \LaTeX{} lists and the \pkg{enumitem} package for
+customization.
+
+\section{License and Requirements}\label{sec:license}
+\license
+
+\Tasks\ requires the \bnd{l3kernel}~\cite{bnd:l3kernel} bundle,
+\needpackage{xparse}, \pkg{xtemplate} and \needpackage{l3keys2e} which are
+part of the \bnd{l3packages}~\cite{bnd:l3packages} bundle,
+\pkg{epic}~\cite{pkg:epic}, \pkg{cntformats}~\cite{pkg:cntformats}, and
+\pkg{environ}~\cite{pkg:environ}.
+
+
+\section{How it works}
+\subsection{The Basics}
+The \env{tasks} environment is similar to a list like \env{enumerate} but not
+the same. Here are some of the differences:
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item A first difference: there is no pagebreak possible inside an item but
+ only between items.
+ \item A second difference: the enumeration default is a), b), c) \ldots
+ \item A third difference: the body of the \env{tasks} environment is split
+ at \emph{every} occurrence of the item separator. For this reason the
+ default separator is not \cs*{item} but \cs{task} so it is unique to this
+ environment only. This directly leads to\ldots
+ \item \ldots{} a fourth difference: the \env{tasks} environment cannot be
+ nested. You can, however, use an \env*{itemize} environment or another
+ \enquote{real} list in it.
+ \item A fifth difference: verbatim material cannot be used in it. You'll
+ have to use \cs*{string}, \cs*{texttt} or \cs*{detokenize}. If this
+ won't suffice then don't use \env{tasks}.
+% \item A sixth difference: %footnotes
+\end{itemize}
+
+\begin{environments}
+ \environment{tasks}[\oarg{options}\darg{num of columns}]
+ List like environment where the single items are introduced with
+ \cs{task}.
+\end{environments}
+Let's see an example:
+\begin{example}
+ % \Sample is defined to contain some sample text:
+ % \def\sample{This is some sample text we will use to create a somewhat
+ % longer text spanning a few lines.}
+ % \def\Sample{\sample\ \sample\par\sample}
+ Some text before the list.
+ \begin{tasks}
+ \task \Sample
+ \task \Sample
+ \task \Sample
+ \end{tasks}
+ And also some text after it.
+\end{example}
+
+The environment takes the optional argument \darg{num of columns} with which
+the number of columns used by the environment is specified.
+\begin{example}
+ \begin{tasks}(2)
+ \task \Sample
+ \task \sample\ \sample
+ \task \sample
+ \task \Sample
+ \task \sample\par\sample
+ \end{tasks}
+\end{example}
+
+\subsection{Items Spanning More Than One Column}
+Sometimes it may come in handy if an item is allowed to span more than one
+column. \Tasks\sinceversion{0.10} supports items using the remaining space by
+adding an optional\label{optional-star} star to \cs{task}:
+\begin{example}
+ \begin{tasks}(3)
+ \task \sample
+ \task* \sample
+ \task* \sample
+ \task \sample
+ \task \sample
+ \end{tasks}
+\end{example}
+
+\Tasks\sinceversion{0.10} also supports items that span \emph{all} columns in
+any case by adding an optional bang\label{optional-bang} to \cs{task}.
+\begin{example}
+ \begin{tasks}(3)
+ \task \sample
+ \task! \sample
+ \task! \sample
+ \task \sample
+ \task \sample
+ \end{tasks}
+\end{example}
+
+The optional star has itself an optional argument with parentheses where you
+can specify the number of columns the item is supposed to span:\label{debug}
+\begin{example}
+ \settasks{debug}
+ \begin{tasks}(4)
+ \task the first
+ \task the second
+ \task the third
+ \task the fourth
+ \task*(3) the fifth item is way too long for this and needs three columns
+ \task the sixth
+ \task the seventh
+ \task*(2) the eighth item is way too long for this and needs two columns
+ \task the nineth
+ \task the tenth
+ \end{tasks}
+\end{example}
+If there are not enough columns left (say two columns but you said
+\cs{task}\sarg\Darg{3}) the argument is ignored and the maximum number of
+remaining columns is used (two in case of our example).
+
+Both optional star and optional bang can be combined with the optional
+argument for a custom label:
+\begin{example}
+ \begin{tasks}(3)
+ \task \sample
+ \task* \sample
+ \task*[(x)] \sample
+ \task \sample
+ \task \sample
+ \end{tasks}
+\end{example}
+
+Forcing a new item line manually is also possible\sinceversion{0.9} using the
+following command:
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{startnewitemline}
+ Introduce a new line in a \env{tasks} environment.
+\end{commands}
+\begin{example}
+ \begin{tasks}(4)
+ \task the first
+ \task the second
+ \task the third
+ \task the fourth
+ \task \rlap{the fifth item is way too long for this so we start a new row}
+ \startnewitemline
+ \task the sixth
+ \task the seventh
+ \task \rlap{the eighth item also is too long} \startnewitemline
+ \task the nineth
+ \task the tenth
+ \end{tasks}
+\end{example}
+
+While this works it also needs a bit of care since the width of the items
+doesn't change which means in order to use the full width you'd have to use
+trickery like \cs*{rlap} which then means the danger of the item text sticking
+into the margin\ldots
+
+\section{Available Options}\label{sec:tasks:options}
+
+The \Tasks{} package does not have any package options\changedversion{0.10}.
+
+The environment \env{tasks} has a number of options, though, namely the
+following ones that can be set using a setup command:
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{settasks}[\marg{options}]
+ Setup command for \Tasks.
+\end{commands}
+\begin{options}
+ \keyval{style}{instance}\Default
+ Choose the instance to be used. Read more on this in
+ section~\ref{sec:tasks}.
+ \keyval{counter-format}{counter specs}\Default{tsk[a])}
+ \sinceversion{0.9}Sets a custom label. The letters \code{tsk} are
+ replaced with the task-counter. An optional argument directly following
+ these letters specifies the counter format: \code{1}: \cs*{arabic},
+ \code{a}: \cs*{alph}, \code{A}: \cs*{Alph}, \code{r}: \cs*{roman} and
+ \code{R}: \cs*{Roman}.
+ \keyval{label-format}{code}\Default
+ \changedversion{0.9}Can be used to apply a formatting like, \eg,
+ \cs*{bfseries} to the labels.
+ \keyval{label}{code}\Default
+ \changedversion{0.9}Overwrite the automatic label to a custom one.
+ \keyval{label-width}{dim}\Default{1em}
+ Sets the width of the item labels.
+ \keyval{label-offset}{dim}\Default{.3333em}
+ \sinceversion{0.7}Sets the offset, \ie, the distance between label and
+ item.
+ \keyval{item-format}{code}\Default
+ \sinceversion{0.11}Can be used to apply a formatting like, \eg,
+ \cs*{bfseries} to the items. This may be a macro accepting the item as
+ mandatory argument.
+ \keyval{item-indent}{dim}\Default{2.5em}
+ \sinceversion{0.9a}The indent of an item, \ie, the horizontal space
+ available for both label and label-offset. If
+ \[
+ \text{\code{indent}} =
+ \text{\code{label-width}} + \text{\code{label-offset}}
+ \]
+ the label will align with the textblock above (if
+ \keyis{label-align}{left} is set). Please see figure~\ref{fig:lengths}
+ for a sketch of the available lengths and how they are set.
+ \keyval{column-sep}{dim}\Default{0pt}
+ \sinceversion{0.10}A horizontal length that is inserted between columns ot
+ items.
+ \keychoice{label-align}{left,right,center}\Default{left}
+ \sinceversion{0.7}Determines how the labels are aligned within the
+ label-box whose width is set with \option{label-width}.
+ \keyval{before-skip}{skip}\Default{0pt}
+ Sets the skip before the list.
+ \keyval{after-skip}{skip}\Default{0pt}
+ Sets the skip after the list.
+ \keyval{after-item-skip}{skip}\Default{1ex plus 1ex minus 1ex}
+ \sinceversion{0.9}This vertical skip is inserted between rows of items.
+ \keybool{resume}\Default{false}
+ The enumeration will resume from a previous \env{tasks} environment. In
+ order to use this option properly you shouldn't mix different \env{tasks}
+ environments that both count their items.
+ \keybool{debug}\Default{false}
+ \sinceversion{0.10}If set to true \cs*{fboxsep} is set to \code{0pt}
+ inside the \env{tasks} environment and \cs*{fbox} is used to draw a frame
+ around the label boxes and the item boxes.

+ \draw[<->] (labeledge1) ++(0,1) --node[above]{label width} ++(-1,0) ;
+ \draw[<->] (labeledge1) --node[above]{item offset} ++(.5,0) ;
+ \end{tikzpicture}
+ \caption{A visual representation of the used lengths.}
+ \label{fig:lengths}
+\end{figure}
+
+Now the same list as above but with three columns and a different label:
+\begin{example}
+ \begin{tasks}[counter-format=(tsk[r]),label-width=4ex](2)
+ \task \Sample
+ \task \sample\ \sample
+ \task \sample
+ \task \Sample
+ \task \sample\par\sample
+ \end{tasks}
+\end{example}
+% \begin{tasks}[counter-format=(tsk[r]),label-width=4ex](3)
+% \task \Sample
+% \task \sample\ \sample
+% \task \sample
+% \task \Sample
+% \task \sample\par\sample
+% \end{tasks}
+
+Let's use it inside a question, \ie, inside \ExSheets' \env{question}
+environment:
+\begin{example}
+ % since settings are local the following ones will be lost
+ % outside this example;
+ \settasks{
+ counter-format = qu.tsk ,
+ item-indent = 2em ,
+ label-width = 2em ,
+ label-offset = 0pt
+ }
+ \begin{question}[type=exam]{4}
+ I have these two tasks for you. Shall we begin?
+ \begin{tasks}(2)
+ \task The first task: easy!
+ \task The second task: even more so!
+ \end{tasks}
+ \end{question}
+ \begin{solution}[print]
+ Now, let's see\ldots\ ah, yes:
+ \begin{tasks}
+ \task This is the first solution. Told you it was easy.
+ \task This is the second solution. And of course you knew that!
+ \end{tasks}
+ \end{solution}
+\end{example}
+
+Finally let's see what the \option{debug} option does (you could see it
+already on page~\pageref{debug}):
+\begin{example}
+ \settasks{debug}
+ \begin{tasks}(2)
+ \task \Sample
+ \task \Sample
+ \end{tasks}
+\end{example}
+
+\section{Available Instances}\label{sec:tasks:instances}
+There are currently three additional instances for the \code{tasks} object
+available:
+\begin{description}
+ \item[itemize] uses \cs*{labelitemi} as labels.
+ \item[enumerate] enumerates the items with 1., 2., \ldots
+ \item[multiplechoice] a --~well~-- `multiple choice' list.
+\end{description}
+\begin{example}
+ \begin{tasks}[style=itemize](2)
+ \task that's just how\ldots
+ \task \ldots we expected
+ \end{tasks}
+ \begin{tasks}[style=enumerate](2)
+ \task that's just how\ldots
+ \task \ldots we expected
+ \end{tasks}
+ \begin{tasks}[style=multiplechoice](2)
+ \task that's just how\ldots
+ \task \ldots we expected
+ \end{tasks}
+\end{example}
+
+\section{Custom Labels}
+If you want to change a single label inside a list, you can use the optional
+argument of \cs{task}. This will temporarily overwrite the default label.
+\begin{example}[side-by-side]
+ \begin{tasks}[style=itemize]
+ \task a standard item
+ \task another one
+ \task[+] a different one
+ \task and another one
+ \end{tasks}
+\end{example}
+
+\section{New Tasks}
+It is possible to add custom environments that work like the \code{tasks}
+environment.
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{NewTasks}[\oarg{options}\marg{name}\oarg{separator}\darg{cols}]
+ Define environment \meta{name} that uses \meta{separator} to introduce a
+ new item. Default for \meta{separator} is \cs{task}, default for
+ \meta{cols} is \code{1}. The \meta{options} are the ones described in
+ section~\ref{sec:tasks:options}.
+ \command{RenewTasks}[\oarg{options}\marg{name}\oarg{separator}\darg{cols}]
+ Renew environment previously defined with \cs{NewTasks}.
+\end{commands}
+The \env{tasks} environment is defined as follows:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \NewTasks{tasks}
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+The separator does not have to be a control sequence:
+\begin{example}
+ % preamble:
+ % \usepackage{dingbat}
+ \NewTasks[label=\footnotesize\leftthumbsup,label-width=1.3em]{done}[*]
+ \begin{done}
+ * First task
+ * Second task
+ \end{done}
+\end{example}
+Although this might seem handy or even nice I strongly advice against using
+something different than a command sequence. Remember that the items will be
+split at \emph{every} occurrence of the separator. So in order to use the
+separator (here for example for a starred variant of a command) within an item
+it has to be hidden in braces. This is avoided of you use a command sequence
+which even doesn't have to be defined.
+
+Please also keep in mind that the separator still has an optional star
+argument (see~\pageref{optional-star}), an optional bang argument and the
+standard optional argument. Using \code{*} will prevent the optional star
+argument.
+
+\begin{example}
+ % preamble:
+ % \usepackage{dingbat}
+ \NewTasks[label=\footnotesize\leftthumbsup,label-width=1.3em]{done}[*]
+ \begin{done}(3)
+ * First task
+ * Second task
+ *! Third task spanning the full width available
+ * Fourth task
+ \end{done}
+\end{example}
+
+Let's say you want a \env*{multiplechoice} environment that has three columns
+in its default state. You could do something like this:
+\begin{example}
+ % preamble:
+ % \NewTasks[style=multiplechoice]{multiplechoice}[\choice](3)
+ % \newcommand*\correct{\PrintSolutionsTF{\checkedchoicebox}{\choicebox}}
+ %
+ % \PrintSolutionsTF and the {question} environment are provided
+ % by the ExSheets package
+ \begin{question}
+ \begin{multiplechoice}
+ \choice First choice
+ \choice Second choice
+ \choice[\correct] Third choice
+ \end{multiplechoice}
+ \end{question}
+ \begin{solution}[print]
+ \begin{multiplechoice}
+ \choice First choice
+ \choice Second choice
+ \choice[\correct] Third choice
+ \end{multiplechoice}
+ \end{solution}
+\end{example}
+
+The last example shows you two additional commands:
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{choicebox}[\quad\choicebox]
+ Print an empty square.
+ \command{checkedchoicebox}[\quad\checkedchoicebox]
+ Print a crossed-out square.
+\end{commands}
+
+
+\section{Styling \Tasks}
+Equivalent to the styling of \ExSheets\ \Tasks\ uses \pkg{xtemplate} to
+declare additional instances for the lists.
+
+\subsection{The \code{tasks} Object}\label{sec:tasks}
+The object that's defined by \Tasks\ is the `tasks' object. This time there
+are four instances available for the one template (again `default') that was
+defined.
+
+\subsubsection{Available Options}
+This section only lists the options that can be used when defining an instance
+of the `default' template. The following subsections will give some examples
+of their usage.
+
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \DeclareTemplateInterface{tasks}{default}{3}
+ {
+ % option : type = default
+ enumerate : boolean = true ,
+ label : tokenlist ,
+ indent : length = 2.5em ,
+ counter-format : tokenlist = tsk[a]) ,
+ label-format : tokenlist ,
+ label-width : length = 1em ,
+ label-offset : length = .3333em ,
+ after-item-skip : skip = 1ex plus 1ex minus 1ex
+ }
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+\subsubsection{Predefined Instances}
+This is rather brief this time:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ % ALPHABETIZE: a) b) c)
+ \DeclareInstance{tasks}{alphabetize}{default}{}
+ % available when `load-tasks=true':
+ % ITEMIZE:
+ \DeclareInstance{tasks}{itemize}{default}
+ {
+ enumerate = false ,
+ label-width = 1.125em
+ }
+ % ENUMERATE:
+ \DeclareInstance{tasks}{enumerate}{default}
+ { counter-format = tsk. }
+ % MULTIPLECHOICE:
+ \DeclareInstance{tasks}{multiplechoice}{default}
+ {
+ enumerate = false ,
+ label = \choicebox ,
+ }
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+\end{document}
