-\section{Example}\secidx{Example}
+\section{Example}
A use case typically looks as follows:
-\begin{beispiel}
- \ReadCounterPattern{se.sse}
-\end{beispiel}
-where the key \code{se} stands for the current value of the \code{section} counter
-and \code{sse} for \code{subsection}, respectively. \code{se.sse} is an example
-for what will be called \emph{pattern}. The keys for the counters can have optional
-arguments that specify the format:
-\begin{beispiel}
- \stepcounter{subsection}
- \ReadCounterPattern{se[A](sse[r])}
-\end{beispiel}
-\code{A} stands for \cmd{Alph} and \code{r} for \cmd{roman}. A complete list can
-be found in table~\ref{tab:predefined:formats} on page~\pageref{tab:predefined:formats}.
-As you can see you can insert arbitrary other tokens in a pattern that won't be
-changed. It is important to notice, though, that the patterns are only replaced
-if they're \emph{not} placed in a braced group!
-
-\begin{beispiel}
- \ReadCounterPattern{{se[A](sse[r])}}
-\end{beispiel}
-
-I would imagine that the argument to \cmd{ReadCounterPattern} is usually
+\begin{example}[side-by-side]
+ \ReadCounterPattern{se.sse}

+
+\begin{example}[side-by-side]
+ \ReadCounterPattern{{se[A](sse[r])}}
+\end{example}
+
+I would imagine that the argument to \cs{ReadCounterPattern} is usually

-\begin{beispiel}[code only]
- \somesetupcommand{
- counter-format = se[A](sse[r])
- }
-\end{beispiel}
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \somesetupcommand{

\ldots{} and then internally used by the corresponding package or class.

-\section{Usage}\secidx{Usage}
-In the following description of the available commands the symbol \expsign{}
-means that the command is expandable, \unexpsign{} means that it isn't.
-In order to make counters known to \cntformats the following commands are used:
-\begin{beschreibung}
- \Befehl{AddCounterPattern}*[<module>]{<counter>}\ma{<pattern>}\newline
- This command will make the (existing) counter \code{<counter>} known to
- \cntformats and assign the pattern \code{<pattern>} to it.
- \Befehl{NewCounterPattern}*[<module>]{<counter>}\ma{<pattern>}\newline
- This command will create a new counter \code{<counter>}, make it known to
- \cntformats and assign the pattern \code{<pattern>} to it.
- \Befehl{ReadCounterFrom}[<module>]{<counter>}\ma{<internal cmd>}\newline
- If you use one of the commands above with the starred version the number for
- the pattern is not automatically fetched from the internal \cmd*{c@<counter>}.
- This can now be assigned with \cmd{ReadCounterFrom} where \code{<internal cmd>}
- is the macro that holds the number.
-\end{beschreibung}
+\section{Usage}
+In the following description of the available commands the symbol
+\textcolor{expandable}{\expandablesign} means that the command is expandable.
+
+In order to make counters known to \cntformats\ the following commands are used:
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{AddCounterPattern}[\sarg\oarg{module}\marg{counter}\marg{pattern}]

+\end{commands}
The commands above can only be used in the document preamble.
After the creation of these pattern markers one wants to be able to use them.
There are a number of macros that allow different aspects of usage.
-\begin{beschreibung}
- \Befehl{ReadCounterPattern}[<module>]{<pattern>}\newline
- Reads, interprets and prints a pattern.
- \expandable\Befehl{@cntfmts@parsed@pattern}\newline
- After \cmd{ReadCounterPattern} has been used the current pattern interpretation
- is stored in this macro. The \emph{interpretation} is \emph{not} what is printed.
- See the examples below for details.
- \Befehl{ReadCounterPatternFrom}[<module>]{<macro that holds pattern>}\newline
- Reads, interprets and prints a pattern that's stored in a macro.\\
- Otherwise the same as \cmd{ReadCounterPattern}.
- \Befehl{SaveCounterPattern}{<cmd a>}\ma{<cmd b>}\ma{<pattern>}\newline
- Saves the \code{<pattern>} in \code{<cmd a>} and the interpreted pattern in
- \code{<cmd b>}.
- \Befehl{eSaveCounterPattern}[<module>]{<cmd a>}\ma{<cmd b>}\ma{<pattern>}\newline
- Saves the \code{<pattern>} in \code{<cmd a>} and the expanded pattern in
- \code{<cmd b>}.
- \Befehl{SaveCounterPatternFrom}[<module>]{<cmd a>}\ma{<cmd b>}\ma{<macro that
- holds pattern>}\newline
- Like \cmd{SaveCounterPattern} but reads the pattern from a macro.
- \Befehl{eSaveCounterPatternFrom}[<module>]{<cmd a>}\ma{<cmd b>}\ma{<macro that
- holds pattern>}\newline
- Like \cmd{eSaveCounterPattern} but reads the pattern from a macro.
-\end{beschreibung}
-
-The optional argument \code{<module>} should be specific for a package, say, so
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{ReadCounterPattern}[\oarg{module}\marg{pattern}]
+ Reads, interprets and prints a pattern.
+ \expandable\command{\at cntfmts\at parsed\at pattern}
+ After \cs{ReadCounterPattern} has been used the current pattern
+ interpretation is stored in this macro. The \emph{interpretation} is
+ \emph{not} what is printed. See the examples below for details.
+ \command{ReadCounterPatternFrom}[\oarg{module}\marg{macro that holds
+ pattern}]
+ Reads, interprets and prints a pattern that's stored in a macro.\\
+ Otherwise the same as \cs{ReadCounterPattern}.
+ \command{SaveCounterPattern}[\marg{cmd a}\marg{cmd b}\marg{pattern}]
+ Saves the \meta{pattern} in \meta{cmd a} and the interpreted pattern in
+ \meta{cmd b}.
+ \command{eSaveCounterPattern}[\oarg{module}\marg{cmd a}\marg{cmd

+ Saves the \meta{pattern} in \meta{cmd a} and the expanded pattern in
+ \meta{cmd b}.
+ \command{SaveCounterPatternFrom}[\oarg{module}\marg{cmd a}\marg{cmd

+ \command{eSaveCounterPatternFrom}[\oarg{module}\marg{cmd a}\marg{cmd
+ b}\marg{macro that holds pattern}]
+ Like \cs{eSaveCounterPattern} but reads the pattern from a macro.
+\end{commands}
+
+The optional argument \meta{module} should be specific for a package, say, so
that different patterns for the \code{section} for example don't interfer with
-each other. If you leave the argument the default module \code{cntfmts} is used.

+used.
-The \ExSheets packages uses the commands with the module \code{exsheets}.
+The \ExSheets\ packages uses the commands with the module \code{exsheets}.
You can find the following lines in \ExSheets' code:
-\begin{beispiel}[code only]
- \AddCounterPattern*[exsheets]{section}{se}
- \ReadCounterFrom[exsheets]{section} \l__exsheets_counter_sec_int
- \NewCounterPattern*[exsheets]{question}{qu}
- \ReadCounterFrom[exsheets]{question} \l__exsheets_counter_qu_int
-\end{beispiel}
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \AddCounterPattern*[exsheets]{section}{se}
+ \ReadCounterFrom[exsheets]{section} \l__exsheets_counter_sec_int
+ \NewCounterPattern*[exsheets]{question}{qu}
+ \ReadCounterFrom[exsheets]{question} \l__exsheets_counter_qu_int
+\end{sourcecode}
Now let's see a short example that hopefully explains what the macros do:
-\begin{beispiel}
- % preamble
- % \NewCounterPattern{testa}{ta}
- \setcounter{testa}{11}
- \ReadCounterPattern{ta}
- \ReadCounterPattern{ta[a]} \\
- \ttfamily\makeatletter
- \meaning\@cntfmts@parsed@pattern

- \meaning\tmpb
-
- \bigskip
- \eSaveCounterPattern\tmpa\tmpb{ta[a]}
- \meaning\tmpa \\
- \meaning\tmpb
-\end{beispiel}
-You can see that somehow additional (empty) groups and a \cmd*{relax} found their
-way into the interpreted and thus the expanded pattern. This is due to the fact
-that reading optional arguments expandably isn't easy and must have some safety
-net.

\section{Additional Packages}
-\ExSheets actually bundles three packages: \ExSheets, \Tasks\ and \cntformats.
-\Tasks is described in part~\ref{part:tasks} and \cntformats in

\section{Create Questions/Exercises and their Solutions}
Now, let's start with the most important part: the questions and (possibly)
their respective solutions.
-\subsection{The \code{question} Environment}\label{ssec:questions}
-Questions are written inside the \code{question} environment:
-\begin{beschreibung}
- \Umg{question}[<options>]{\unskip\ma{<points>} ... }
-\end{beschreibung}
-\begin{beispiel}
- \begin{question}
- This is our very first very difficult to solve question!
- \end{question}
-\end{beispiel}
+\subsection{The \env*{question} Environment}\label{ssec:questions}
+Questions are written inside the \env{question} environment:
+\begin{environments}
+ \environment{question}[\oarg{options}\marg{points}]
+ The main environment: creates a new exercise/question. Both arguments are
+ optionial!
+\end{environments}
+\begin{example}
+ \begin{question}
+ This is our very first very difficult to solve question!
+ \end{question}
+\end{example}
As you can see a heading is automatically created and the question is
numbered. You can of course change both the numbering and the naming, but
more on that later.
-The \code{question} environment takes an optional argument \ma{<points>} that
+The \env{question} environment takes an optional argument \marg{points} that
can be used to assign points to the question (as is common in written exams):
-\begin{beispiel}
- \begin{question}{3}
- This is our first difficult question that is worth 3 points!
- \end{question}
-\end{beispiel}
+\begin{example}
+ \begin{question}{3}
+ This is our first difficult question that is worth 3 points!
+ \end{question}
+\end{example}
These points are saved internally (see section~\ref{sec:points} for reasons
why) and are written to the right margin next to the question heading in the
default setting.
-You can also assign bonus points by inserting \code{<point>+<bonus points>} as
-argument.
-\begin{beispiel}
- \begin{question}{1+1}
- This question is worth 1 point and 1 bonus point.
- \end{question}
- \begin{question}{+3}
- This question is a bonus question. It is worth 3 bonus points.
- \end{question}
-\end{beispiel}
+You can also assign bonus points by inserting \code{\meta{point}+\meta{bonus
+ points}} as argument.
+\begin{example}
+ \begin{question}{1+1}
+ This question is worth 1 point and 1 bonus point.
+ \end{question}
+ \begin{question}{+3}
+ This question is a bonus question. It is worth 3 bonus points.
+ \end{question}
+\end{example}
\sinceversion{0.3}On additional thing: you might want to define custom
commands that should behave differently if they're inside or outside of the
-\code{question} environment. In this case you can use these commands:
-\begin{beschreibung}
- \expandable\Befehl{IfInsideQuestionTF}{<true code>}\ma{<false code>}
- \expandable\Befehl{IfInsideQuestionT}{<true code>}
- \expandable\Befehl{IfInsideQuestionF}{<false code>}
-\end{beschreibung}
-
-\subsection{Options to the \code{question} Environment}\secidx[options]{questions}
-The \code{question} environment takes one or more of the following options:
-\begin{beschreibung}
- \Option[question]{type}{exam|exercise}\Default{exercise}
- determines the type of question and changes the default name of a question
+\env{question} environment. In this case you can use these commands:
+\begin{commands}
+ \expandable\command{IfInsideQuestionTF}[\marg{true code}\marg{false code}]
+ Check if inside of a question and either leave \meta{true code} or
+ \meta{false code} in the input stream.
+ \expandable\command{IfInsideQuestionT}[\marg{true code}]
+ Check if inside of a question and either leave \meta{true code} in the
+ input stream if true.
+ \expandable\command{IfInsideQuestionF}[\marg{false code}]
+ Check if inside of a question and either leave \meta{false code} in the
+ input stream if not.
+\end{commands}
+
+\subsection{Options to the \env*{question} Environment}
+The \env{question} environment takes one or more of the following options:
+\begin{options}
+ \keychoice{type}{exam,exercise}\Module{question}\Default{exercise}
+ Determines the type of question and changes the default name of a question
from ``Exercise'' to ``Question''. These default names are language
- dependent.
-
- If you use \cmd*{usepackage}[ngerman]{babel}, for example, then the names
- are ``\"Ubung and ``Aufgabe''.
- \Option[question]{name}{<name>}\Default{}
- sets a custom name. All predefined names are discarded.
- \Option[question]{print}{\default{true}|false}\Default{true}
- prints or hides the question.
- \Option[question]{ID}{<id>}\Default{}
- assigns a custom \acs{id} to the question. See section~\ref{ssec:ids} for
- further information.
- \Option[question]{label}{<label>}\Default{}
- Places a \cmd*{label}{<label>} for the question. This will overwrite any
- label that is placed by the \key{auto-label} option.
- \Option[question]{class}{<class>}\Default{}
- assigns a class to the question. See section~\ref{sec:classes} for
+ dependent.\par
+ If you use \cs*{usepackage}\oarg{ngerman}\marg{babel}, for example, then
+ the names are ``\"Ubung and ``Aufgabe''.
+ \keyval{name}{name}\Module{question}\Default
+ Sets a custom name. All predefined names are discarded.
+ \keyval{subtitle}{subtitle}\Module{question}\Default
+ Adds a subtitle \meta{subtitle} for the question that is used by headings
+ instances that make use of the subtitle coffin, see
+ section~\ref{sec:exsheets-headings}.
+ \keybool{print}\Module{question}\Default{true}
+ Prints or hides the question.
+ \keyval{ID}{id}\Module{question}\Default
+ Assigns a custom \acs{id} to the question. See section~\ref{ssec:ids} for
further information.
- \Option[question]{topic}{<topic>}\Default{}
- assigns a topic to the question. See section~\ref{sec:topics} for further
- information.
- \Option[question]{use}{\default{true}|false}\Default{true}
- discards the question. Or not.
-\end{beschreibung}
-\begin{beispiel}
- \begin{question}[type=exam]
- This question has the type \texttt{exam}. The default name has changed from

-\begin{beispiel}
- \begin{question}[ID=first]\label{qu:question_with_solution}

+ \end{question}
+ \begin{solution}
+ This is the solution to exercise~\ref{qu:question_with_solution}!

+\end{example}
You can see that in the default settings the solution is \emph{not} written to
the document. It has been saved, though, for possible later usage. We will
see the solution later!
-\subsection{Options to the \code{solution} Environment}\secidx[options]{solutions}
-The \code{solutions} environment also has options, namely these:
-\begin{beschreibung}

+\subsection{Setting the Counter}\label{ssec:counter}
+The package option \option{counter-format} allows you to specify how the question

The input is an arbitrary string which means you can have anything as counter
number. However, the letter combinations \code{ch}, \code{se}, \code{qu} and

-\cmd{alph}, \code{A}: \cmd{Alph}, \code{r}: \cmd{roman} and \code{R}:
-\cmd{Roman}.

+ \begin{question}
+ A question with a differently formatted number.

+\end{example}
Since the strings associated with the counters are replaced one has to hide
them if they are actually wanted in the counter format. The easiest way would
to hide them in braces.
-\begin{beispiel}

+In the next subsections the usage of the following command is discussed.
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{printsolutions}[\oarg{setting}]
+ Print solutions of questions(exercises.
+\end{commands}
Before we do that a hint: remember that you can set the option \key{print}
globally:
-\begin{beispiel}[code only]
- % in the preamble
- \SetupExSheets{solution/print=true}
-\end{beispiel}
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ % in the preamble
+ \SetupExSheets{solution/print=true}
+\end{sourcecode}
Now if you want to typeset some text depending on the option being true or not
you can use the following commands:
-\begin{beschreibung}
- \expandable\Befehl{PrintSolutionsTF}{<true code>}\ma{<false code>}
- \expandable\Befehl{PrintSolutionsT}{<true code>}
- \expandable\Befehl{PrintSolutionsF}{<false code>}

+ Checks if inside of a \env{solution} environment and either leaves the
+ \meta{true code} or the \meta{false code} in the input stream.
+ \expandable\command{PrintSolutionsT}[\marg{true code}]
+ Checks if inside of a \env{solution} environment and either leaves the

+ \expandable\command{PrintSolutionsF}[\marg{false code}]
+ Checks if inside of a \env{solution} environment and either leaves the
+ \meta{false code} in the input stream if not.
+\end{commands}
They might come in handy if you want two versions of an exercise sheet, one
with the exercises and one with the solutions, and you want to add different
titles to these versions, for instance.

+Yes, there's one more point: \cs{printsolutions} only knows the solutions
that have been set \emph{before} its usage! This is also true for every usage
explained in the next sections.

+\end{example}
-\subsection{Print per chapter/section}\secidx[print!per section/chapter]{solutions}
+\subsection{Print per chapter/section}
\minisec{Current chapter/section}
If you are not creating an exercise sheet or an exam but are writing a
textbook you maybe want a section at the end of each chapter showing the
solution to the exercises presented in that chapter. In this case use the
command as follows:
-\begin{beispiel}[code only]
- \printsolutions[section]
- % or
- \printsolutions[chapter]
-\end{beispiel}
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \printsolutions[section]
+ % or
+ \printsolutions[chapter]
+\end{sourcecode}
Again, this is pretty much self-explaining. The solutions to the questions of
the current chapter\footnote{Only if the document class you're using
\emph{has} chapters, of course!} or section are printed.
-\begin{beispiel}
- \begin{question}
- This is the first and only question in this section.
- \end{question}
- \begin{solution}
- This will be one of a few solutions printed by the following call of
- \cmd{printsolutions}.
- \end{solution}
- And now:
- \printsolutions[section]
-\end{beispiel}
+\begin{example}
+ \begin{question}
+ This is the first and only question in this section.

+ \end{solution}
+ And now:
+ \printsolutions[section]
+\end{example}
\minisec{Specific chapter/section}\label{sssec:print_specific_section}
You can also print only the solutions from chapters or sections other than the
current ones. The syntax is fairly easy:
-\begin{beispiel}[below]
- \printsolutions[section={1-7,10}]
- % the same for chapters:
- % \printsolutions[chapter={1-7,10}]
-\end{beispiel}
-Don't forget that \cmd{printsolutions} cannot know the solutions from
+\begin{example}
+ \printsolutions[section={1-7,10}]
+ % the same for chapters:
+ % \printsolutions[chapter={1-7,10}]
+\end{example}
+Don't forget that \cs{printsolutions} cannot know the solutions from
section~10 yet. It is just used to demonstrate the syntax. You can also use
-an open range, \eg something like
-\begin{beispiel}[code only]
- \printsolutions[section={-4,10-}]
-\end{beispiel}
+an open range, \eg, something like
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \printsolutions[section={-4,10-}]
+\end{sourcecode}
This would print the solutions from sections~1--4 and from all sections with
-number 10\footnote{Or rather where \cmd{value}{section} is 10 or greater --
+number 10\footnote{Or rather where \cs*{value}\Marg{section} is 10 or greater --
the actual counter formatting is irrelevant.} and greater.
There is an obvious disadvantage: you have to know the section numbers! But
-there is a solution: use the package option \key{use-ref}{true}. Then you can
-do something like
-\begin{beispiel}[code only]
- % in the preamble:
- \usepackage[use-ref]{exsheets}
- % somewhere in your code after \section{A really cool section title}:
- \label{sec:ReallyCool}
- % somewhere later in your code:
- \printsolutions[section={-\S{sec:ReallyCool}}]
- % which will print all solutions from questions up to and
- % including the really cool section
-\end{beispiel}
-With the package option \key{use-ref}{true} each usage of \cmd{label} will

+ % somewhere later in your code:
+ \printsolutions[section={-\S{sec:ReallyCool}}]
+ % which will print all solutions from questions up to and
+ % including the really cool section
+\end{sourcecode}
+With the package option \keyis{use-ref}{true} each usage of \cs*{label} will
create additional labels (one preceded with \code{exse:} and another one with
\code{exch:}) which store the section number and the chapter number,
-respectively. These are used internally by two commands \cmd{S} and \cmd{C}

-\subsection{Print by \acs{id}}\label{ssec:ids}\secidx[print!by ID]{solutions}
+\subsection{Print by \acs{id}}\label{ssec:ids}
Now comes the best part: you can also print selected solutions! Every
question has an \acs{id}. To see which \acs{id} a question has you can call
the following command:
-\begin{beschreibung}
- \Befehl{DebugExSheets}{true|false}
- \Befehl{CurrentQuestionID}\newline\sinceversion{0.4a}%
- expands to the current question \acs{id} (after two expansions).
-\end{beschreibung}
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{DebugExSheets}[\Marg{\choices{true,false}}]
+ Enable or disable visual \ExSheets' debugging.
+ \command{CurrentQuestionID}
+ \sinceversion{0.4a}Expands to the current question \acs{id} (after two
+ expansions).
+\end{commands}
Let's create some more questions and take a look what this command does:
-\begin{beispiel}
- \DebugExSheets{true}
- \begin{question}[ID=nice!]
- A question with a nice \acs{id}!
- \end{question}
- \begin{solution}
- The solution to the question with the nice \acs{id}.
- \end{solution}
- \begin{question}{3.75}
- Yet another question. But this time with quarter points!
- \end{question}
- \begin{solution}
- Yet another solution.
- \end{solution}
-\end{beispiel}
+\begin{example}
+ \DebugExSheets{true}
+ \begin{question}[ID=nice!]
+ A question with a nice \acs{id}!
+ \end{question}
+ \begin{solution}
+ The solution to the question with the nice \acs{id}.
+ \end{solution}
+ \begin{question}{3.75}
+ Yet another question. But this time with quarter points!
+ \end{question}
+ \begin{solution}
+ Yet another solution.
+ \end{solution}
+\end{example}
So now we can call some specific solutions:
-\begin{beispiel}
- \printsolutions[byID={first,nice!,10,14}]
-\end{beispiel}
-This makes use of the \paket{l3sort} package which at the time of writing is
+\begin{example}
+ \printsolutions[byID={first,nice!,10,14}]
+\end{example}
+This makes use of the \pkg{l3sort} package which at the time of writing is
still considered experimental. In case you wonder where solution~14 is:
question~14 has no solution given.
If you don't want that the solutions are sorted automatically but appear in
the order given you can use the option
-\begin{beschreibung}
- \Option[solution]{sorted}{\default{true}|false}\Default{true}
+\begin{options}
+ \keybool{sorted}\Module{solution}\Default{true}
Sort solutions given by \acs{id} or don't.

\section{Adding and Using Additional Information to Questions}\label{sec:additional_info}
-\secidx{Additional Information to Questions}
For managing lots of questions and corresponding solutions it can be very
useful to be able to save and recover additional information to the questions.
This is possible with the following commands. First the ones for saving:

- This command defines a question property \code{<name>}. It can only be
+\begin{commands}

Set the properties for a specific question. this command can only be used
- inside the \code{question} environment.
-\end{beschreibung}
+ inside the \env{question} environment.
+\end{commands}
Now the commands for recovering the properties:
-\begin{beschreibung}
- \Befehl{QuestionNumber}{<id>}\newline
- Recover the number of the question with the \acs{id} \code{<id>}. The
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{QuestionNumber}[\marg{id}]
+ Recover the number of the question with the \acs{id} \meta{id}. The
number is displayed according to the format set with

- \Befehl{GetQuestionProperty}{<name>}\ma{<id>}\newline
- Recover the property \code{<name>} of the question with the \acs{id}
- \code{<id>}. Of course the property must have been declared before.
-\end{beschreibung}
-
+ \option{counter-format}.
+ \command{GetQuestionProperty}[\marg{name}\marg{id}]
+ Recover the property \meta{name} of the question with the \acs{id}
+ \meta{id}. Of course the property must have been declared before.
+\end{commands}
+
Let's say we have declared the properties \code{notes}, \code{reference} and
\code{topic}. By default the property \code{points} is available and gets the
value of the optional argument of the \code{question} environment.
We can now do the following:
-\begin{beispiel}
- % uses `biblatex'
- \begin{question}[ID=center,topic=LaTeX]{3}
- Explain how you could center text in a \LaTeX\ document.
- \SetQuestionProperties{
- topic = \TeX/\LaTeX ,
- notes = {How to center text.},
- reference = {\textcite{companion}}}
- \end{question}
- \begin{solution}
- To center a short part of the text body one can use the \texttt{center}
- environment (\points{1}). Inside an environment like \texttt{table} one
- should use \texttt{\string\centering} (\points{1}). For single lines
- there is also the \texttt{\string\centerline} command (\points{1}).

- For example two volumes from \citetitle{knuth:ct}:
- \citetitle{knuth:ct:a,knuth:ct:b,knuth:ct:c,knuth:ct:d,knuth:ct:e}. Each valid

For four questions the table now would look similar to

+\part{The \ExSheetslistings\ Package \exsheetslistingsverion}\label{part:listings}
+\section{The Problem}
+I knew the day would come when people would ask how to include verbatim
+material in the \env{question} and \env{solution} environments. Since they're
+defined with the \pkg{environ} package they're reading their environment
+bodies like macros read their arguments. This makes it impossible to use
+verbatim material inside them\footnote{See the \TeX\ \acs{faq}
+ \url{http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=verbwithin} for reasons
+ why.}. Now the day has come~\cite{tex.sx:131546}. Soon after the first
+question appeared I wrote the first draft for \ExSheetslistings\ for a question
+on \TeX.sx~\cite{tex.sx:133907}.
+
+\section{The Proposed Solution}
+
+The \ExSheetslistings\ package defines \pkg{listings} environments that place
+their contents inside \env{question} and \env{solution} environments. They do
+this by writing the listing to a unique auxiliary file --
+questions to \code{\cs*{jobname}-ex\meta{num}.lst} and solutions to
+\code{\cs*{jobname}-sol\meta{num}.lst} where \meta{num} is an increasing
+integer that ensures that each listing gets a unique file name. Those files
+are then included with \cs{lstinutlisting} if and when the question or
+solution is printed.
+
+\begin{environments}
+ \environment{lstquestion}[\oarg{options}]
+ A \pkg{listings} environment placed in a \env{question}.
+ \environment{lstsolution}[\oarg{options}]
+ A \pkg{listings} environment placed in a \env{solution}.
+\end{environments}
+
+All you have to do to use the package is loading it the usual way:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \usepackage{exsheets-listings}
+\end{sourcecode}
+This will also load the packages \ExSheets\ and \pkg{listings} if they're not
+loaded already.
+
+\begin{example}
+ % this uses my listings style used in this documentation for all pieces of
+ % code:
+ \begin{lstquestion}[%
+ pre=Explain what this piece of \LaTeX\ code does:,
+ listings={style=cnltx}]
+ \begingroup\expandafter\expandafter\expandafter\endgroup
+ \expandafter\ifx\csname foo\endcsname\relax
+ ...
+ \else
+ ...
+ \fi
+ \end{lstquestion}
+\end{example}
+
+The example already shows two options of these environments. Here is the
+complete list:
+\begin{options}
+ \keyval{pre}{text}
+ \meta{text} is placed before the code in the \env{question} or
+ \env{solution} environment.
+ \keyval{post}{text}
+ \meta{text} is placed after the code in the \env{question} or
+ \env{solution} environment.
+ \keyval{options}{options}
+ Options passed to underlying the \env{question} or \env{solution}
+ environment.
+ \keyval{points}{points}
+ The points assigned to the underlying \env{question} environment.
+ \keyval{listings}{options}
+ Options passed to the underlying \pkg{listings} environment.
+\end{options}
+
+There are also two new options for \ExSheets\ that can be set with
+\cs{SetupExSheets}:
+\begin{options}
+ \keyval{listings}{options}\Module{question}
+ Options passed to the underlying \pkg{listings} environment of
+ \env{lstquestion}.
+ \keyval{listings}{options}\Module{solution}
+ Options passed to the underlying \pkg{listings} environment of
+ \env{lstsolution}.
+\end{options}
+
+\section{Own Environments}
+
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{NewLstQuSolPair}[\oarg{options for both environments}\marg{lst question
+ env}\marg{question env}\oarg{options for lst question env}\marg{lst
+ solution env}\marg{solution env}\oarg{options for lst solution env}]
+ Defines two new \pkg{listings} environments that place the listing in a
+ question environment \meta{question env} or a solution environment
+ \meta{solution env}. Those underlying environments should be
+ environments as defined by \cs{NewQuSolPair}. The different options
+ allow to preset options for the newly defined environments.
+\end{commands}
+
+The existing environments have been defined like this:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \NewLstQuSolPair{lstquestion}{question}{lstsolution}{solution}

+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: there is a split at \emph{every} occurrence of the
- item separator. For this reason the default separator is not \cmd*{item}
- but \cmd{task} so it is unique to this environment only.
-\item A fourth difference: the \code{tasks} environment cannot be nested.
- You can, however, use an \code{itemize} environment or something in it.
-\item A fifth difference: verbatim material cannot be used in it. You'll
- have to use \cmd*{string}, \cmd*{texttt} or \cmd*{detokenize}. If this
- won't suffice then don't use \code{tasks}.

+\section{New Tasks}
It is possible to add custom environments that work like the \code{tasks}
environment.
-\begin{beschreibung}
- \Befehl{NewTasks}[<options>]{<name>}\oa{<separator}\da{<cols>}\newline
- Define environment \ma{<name>} that uses \code{<separator>} to introduce a
- new item. Default for \code{<separator>} is \cmd{task}, default for
- \code{<cols>} is \code{1}. The \code{<options>} are the ones described in
- section~\ref{sec:tasks:options}.
- \Befehl{RenewTasks}[<options>]{<name>}\oa{<separator}\da{<cols>}\newline
- Renew environment previously defined with \cmd{NewTasks}.
-\end{beschreibung}
-The \code{tasks} environment is defined as follows:
-\begin{beispiel}[code only]
- \NewTasks{tasks}
-\end{beispiel}
+\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{beispiel}
- % preamble:
- % \usepackage{dingbat}
- \NewTasks[label=\footnotesize\leftthumbsup,label-width=1.3em]{done}[*]
- \begin{done}
- * First task

+ \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
@@ -479,44 +371,46 @@ separator (here for example for a starred variant of a command) within an item
