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). -------------------------------------------------------------------- Classes and Packages: ============================================================================== scraddr - Package to provide data from scrlttr2's adr-files ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maintainer: Markus Kohm E-Mail: komascript at gmx info Abstract: scraddr is a LaTeX package of the KOMA-Script bundle. scrlttr2 uses adr-files to create form letters. The scraddr package provides commands to read such files and to use the data of the address entries not only with the scrlttr2 class and not only for form letters.

Is has been made, because several younger KOMA-Script users doe not understand the 8.3 name scheme. However it is still recommended to use scrartcl instead of scrarticle. Requires: scrartcl.cls - KOMA-Script class License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Author maintained Version: 2021/06/25 v3.34 ============================================================================== scrbase - basic features for KOMA-Script, e.g. conditionals and key=value ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maintainer: Markus Kohm E-Mail: komascript at gmx info Abstract: scrbase is a LaTeX package of the KOMA-Script bundle. It provides some basic functions used by KOMA-Script that can also be used by authors and users of other classes and packages. First, it provides extended handling of key=value pairs that can be used for run-time options of classes and packages. Several packages in a family can share options, and all the options in a family can be changed with a single command. Additional conditions like \ifundefinedorrelax, \ifpdftex, \ifVTeX, \ifpdfoutput, \ifstr etc. are provided. Most of them can be prevented from being defined and have additional internal representations that can be used by package or class authors. It also provides commands to easily define or change language-dependent terms that work not only with babel but with other packages like ngerman too. It provides some commands for package and class authors missing in the LaTeX kernel like \ClassInfoNoLine, \PackageInfoNoLine or \l@addto@macro. Last but not least, it provides commands for integer division and integer modulo operation that can be used, for example, inside \numexpr ...\relax or with \ifnum.

It patches other packages to make them work better and adds new features to improve their interaction with KOMA-Script. One main feature is to make them work with tocbasic instead of KOMA-Script's deprecated float list interface. Currently, patches for float.sty, floatrow.sty, (old versions of) hyperref, listings, and setspace are available. Requires: scrkbase - internal KOMA-Script package with basics tocbasic - features for helper files and float environments xpatch - extending etoolbox patching commands License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Author maintained Version: 2021/06/25 v3.34 ============================================================================== scrjura - contract environment for advocates and scholary persons in law ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maintainer: Markus Kohm E-Mail: komascript at gmx info Abstract: scrjura is a LaTeX package of the KOMA-Script bundle. It has been made in cooperation with a German lawyer to provide environments for contracts, laws, acts or other legal purposes.

Users and class or package authors should not use this package directly. Requires: scrbase - KOMA-Script package for some basic features. scrlfile - KOMA-Script package for file loading manipulation License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Author maintained Version: 2021/06/25 v3.34 ============================================================================== scrlayer-notecolumn - control note columns parallel to the main text ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maintainer: Markus Kohm E-Mail: komascript at gmx info Abstract: scrlayer-notecolumn is a LaTeX package of the KOMA-Script bundle. It provides an end-user interface to scrlayer to define and manage note columns. Those note columns are somewhat similar to marginal notes (see the LaTeX command \marginpar or packages like notecolumn), but you can use several of them. The package provides page breaks inside note columns and synchronization points between the main text and note columns. Like most of the KOMA-Script packages, you can use this package not only with KOMA-Script classes but also with several other classes, e.g., the standard LaTeX classes. Requires: scrlayer.sty License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Author maintained, proof of concept Version: 2021/05/30 v0.3.3601 ============================================================================== scrlayer-scrpage - controlling page headers and footers ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maintainer: Markus Kohm E-Mail: komascript at gmx info Abstract: scrlayer-scrpage is a LaTeX package of the KOMA-Script bundle. It provides an end-user interface to scrlayer to define and manage page styles. This end user interface is sufficiently compatible to scrpage2 that users should easily be able to switch from the old scrpage2 package to the new one. Nevertheless, it provides several new features to control headers and footers. Like most of the KOMA-Script packages, you can use this package not only with KOMA-Script classes but also with several other classes, e.g., the standard LaTeX classes. Requires: scrlayer.sty License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Author maintained Version: 2021/06/25 v3.34 ============================================================================== scrlayer - defining layers and controlling page headers and footers ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maintainer: Markus Kohm E-Mail: komascript at gmx info Abstract: scrlayer is a LaTeX package of the KOMA-Script bundle. Users may already be familiar with a type of layer from packages like eso-pic or textpos. scrlayer is another package that provides background and foreground layers, but unlike those other packages, these layers are part of the page-style definition. With this package, you can easily switch between the layers used by switching the page style. In short, the page-style interface of scrlayer provides commands to define page styles based on a stack of layers and to manage those layer stacks. Nevertheless, using the layers directly is recommended for advanced users only. End-user interfaces for beginners or average users are provided by additional packages, that load scrlayer on their own, e.g., scrlayer-scrpage.

Is has been made, because several younger KOMA-Script users doe not understand the 8.3 name scheme. However it is still recommended to use scrlttr2 instead of scrletter. Requires: scrlttr2.cls - KOMA-Script class License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Author maintained Version: 2021/06/25 v3.34 ============================================================================== scrletter - letter extention to KOMA-Script classes ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maintainer: Markus Kohm E-Mail: komascript at gmx info Abstract: scrletter provides the features of the letter class scrlttr2 when using the KOMA-Script classes scrartcl, scrreprt, and scrbook, or the standard classes article, report, and book. Requires: scrkbase - internal KOMA-Script package typearea - KOMA-Script package scrlayer-scrpage - KOMA-Script package Recommended: marvosym - package by Martin Vogel providing symbols License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Author maintained Version: 2021/06/25 v3.34 ============================================================================== scrlfile-hook - internal subpackage of scrlfile ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maintainer: Markus Kohm E-Mail: komascript at gmx info Abstract: scrlfile-hook is an internal subpackage of scrlfile to be be used with LaTeX from version 2010-10-01 on. Requires: scrlogo.sty License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Author maintained Version: 2021/06/25 v3.34 ============================================================================== scrlfile-pacholdlatex - internal subpackage of scrlfile ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maintainer: Markus Kohm E-Mail: komascript at gmx info Abstract: scrlfile-patcholdlatex is an internal subpackage of scrlfile to be be used with LaTeX up to version 2010-04-01. Requires: scrlogo.sty License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Author maintained Version: 2021/06/25 v3.34 ============================================================================== scrlfile - control of package dependencies ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maintainer: Markus Kohm E-Mail: komascript at gmx info Abstract: scrlfile is a LaTeX package of the KOMA-Script bundle. It provides the ability to execute commands before or after loading files, classes, or packages. It can even automatically load one file, class, or package in place of another or prevent a package from being loaded. It also provides the ability to execute commands before or after closing the main aux file during \end{document}. It has been used by the KOMA-Script classes for more than a decade. Requires: scrlfile-hook.sty, scrlfile-patcholdlatex.sty, scrlogo.sty License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Author maintained Version: 2021/06/25 v3.34 ============================================================================== scrlogo - print the KOMA-Script logo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maintainer: Markus Kohm E-Mail: komascript at gmx info Abstract: scrlogo is a LaTeX package of the KOMA-Script bundle. It provides the command \KOMAScript to print the official KOMA-Script logo. Requires: License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Author maintained Version: 2021/06/25 v3.34 ============================================================================== scrlttr2 - versatile letter class with separation of text area and note paper ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maintainer: Markus Kohm E-Mail: komascript at gmx info Abstract: scrlttr2 is a letter class for LaTeX2e that allows definition of several letterheads and text area settings that are independent from the letterhead. So you can use not only the KOMA-Script package typearea but even packages like geometry to define the text area and the margins. The positions of the elements of the letterhead can be changed by so called pseudo-lengths. This makes it possible to adjust scrlttr2 not only to local conventions and paper sizes but also to a corporate brand identity. Several predefined sets of parameters, called letter-class-option or lco files are part of the KOMA-Script bundle: two German letters, Swiss letters, US letters, Japanese letters, and French letters. More can be found on CTAN or the KOMA-Script homepage as separate packages. Additional lco-files for different letterheads can be found on the KOMA-Script homepage, e.g., one demonstration file for a letterhead similar to that of Washington State University. Requires: scrkbase - internal KOMA-Script package typearea - KOMA-Script package Recommended: marvosym - package by Martin Vogel providing symbols License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Author maintained Version: 2021/06/25 v3.34 ============================================================================== scrreport - wrapper class to scrreprt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maintainer: Markus Kohm E-Mail: komascript at gmx info Abstract: scrreport is a very simple wrapper class to scrreprt. Is has been made, because several younger KOMA-Script users doe not understand the 8.3 name scheme. However it is still recommended to use scrreprt instead of scrreport. Requires: scrreprt.cls - KOMA-Script class License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Author maintained Version: 2021/06/25 v3.34 ============================================================================== scrreprt - versatile class may be used as a drop-in replacement of report ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maintainer: Markus Kohm E-Mail: komascript at gmx info Abstract: scrreprt is the KOMA-Script drop-in replacement for the standard LaTeX report class. It provides all options, environments, counters, lengths, and commands of the standard LaTeX report class, as well as several additional options, environments, commands, etc., to make it much more versatile. The default layout of scrreprt differs from that of report, with an emphasis on good typography. Nevertheless, by changing the defaults, you can achieve a layout very similar to that of the standard class. Requires: scrkbase - internal KOMA-Script package tocbasic - KOMA-Script package typearea - KOMA-Script package License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Author maintained Version: 2021/06/25 v3.34 ============================================================================== scrtime - show the time of the LaTeX run ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maintainer: Markus Kohm E-Mail: komascript at gmx info Abstract: scrtime is a LaTeX package of the KOMA-Script bundle. It provides only some small features to show the time of the LaTeX run. Requires: scrkbase - internal package with some basics of KOMA-Script License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Author maintained Version: 2021/06/25 v3.34 ============================================================================== scrwfile - Spare write handles for helper files to avoid `No room' messages ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maintainer: Markus Kohm E-Mail: komascript at gmx info Abstract: scrwfile is a LaTeX package of the KOMA-Script bundle. TeX makes only about 16 write handles available for \newwrite. With LaTeX, each auxiliary file, not only the main aux file but files such as the toc file, the lof file, the lot file, and the raw indexes and glossaries need one of these handles. scrwfile provides facilities to avoid using handles for auxiliary files that use the main aux file for intermediate writing. This means that the toc file, the lof file, the lot file, and files of packages like listings no longer need a write handle, so the user will have more write handles for files like indexes or glossaries and can avoid `No room for new \write' error messages. scrwfile also provides facilities to clone auxiliary files, e.g., to have two tables of contents with different tocdepth settings. Requires: scrbase - some basic features for class and package authors tocbasic - basic features for helper files and lists of floats scrlfile - control of package dependencies License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Author maintained Version: 2021/05/30 v0.1.9-alpha ============================================================================== tocbasic - Management of tables and lists of contents using helper files ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maintainer: Markus Kohm E-Mail: komascript at gmx info Abstract: tocbasic is a LaTeX package of the KOMA-Script bundle. The main purpose of package tocbasic is to provide features for authors of classes and packages to create their own tables or lists of contents like the list of figures and the list of tables, and thereby allow other classes or packages some measure of control over these. For example, the tocbasic package delegates control of the language for all these tables and lists of contents to the babel package. Thus changes of language will be automatically reflected inside all these tables and lists of contents. Using tocbasic will free authors of classes and packages from the burden of implementing of such features. KOMA-Script itself uses tocbasic not only for the table of contents but also for the lists of figures and tables mentioned previously. Requires: scrbase - KOMA-Script package for some basic features. License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Author maintained Version: 2021/06/25 v3.34 ============================================================================== typearea - Calculating typeing area and margins depending on typographic rules ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Maintainer: Markus Kohm E-Mail: komascript at gmx info Abstract: Many LaTeX classes, including the standard classes, present the user with the largely fixed configuration of margins and type area. With the standard classes, the choice is limited to selecting a font size. There are separate packages, such as geometry, which give the user complete control over, but also full responsibility for, setting the type area and margins. KOMA-Script takes a somewhat different approach with its typearea package. Users are offered ways to adjust the design and algorithms based on established typographic standards, making it easier for them to make good choices. Requires: scrkbase - internal basic features for KOMA-Script packages License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Autor maintained Version: 2021/06/25 v3.34 ==============================================================================
