+
+HISTORY:
+
+ v0.0 2017/02/09 - start with coding the first ideas
+ v0.1 2017/03/19 - first draft which actually seems to do everything as
+ planned
+ v0.2 2017/03/21 - bugfix in the verbwrite module
+ - add `use!' and `print!' properties
+ - add the concepts of `noupdate' and `boolean' properties
+ v0.4 2017/03/24 - \IfExerciseBooleanPropertyTF
+ - \GetExercisePropertyTF, \PropertyValue
+ - \printallsolutions
+ - \UseExerciseTemplate
+ - bug fix in solution environments: now get printed again
+ when option `print=true' is used
+ - bug fix to the translations of the solution list headings:
+ exercise name instead of exercise type is now printed
+ - \AddtoExerciseTypeGoal, \AddtoExerciseGoal
+ \AddtoExerciseTypeGoalPrint, \AddtoExerciseGoalPrint,
+ \ExerciseGoalValuePrint
+ - \addpoints, \addbonus, \points, \printgoal
+ v0.5 2017/03/30 - add style file mechanism
+ - make solution print conditions `section' and `chapter'
+ combinable
+ v0.5a 2017/04/15 - fix wrong translation of the `default-heading'
+ v0.5b 2017/04/16 - add \SetExerciseProperty
+ v0.6 2017/04/27 - official interface for grade distributions
+ - refine hook management (environment module)
+ v0.6a 2017/04/28 - refine \blank command, add documentation for said command
+ v0.7 2017/05/09 - \xsim_list_length:n
+ - new boolean property `used'
+ - when an exercise is collected the counter isn't stepped
+ but only when the exercise is inserted for the first
+ time; when this happens the new property `used' is set to
+ `true'
+ - make setting boolean properties case insensitive
+ - add missing pieces to manual (eg `page' property...)
+ - \TotalExerciseGoals and \TotalExerciseTypeGoals
+ - \XSIMifchapterTF
+ - \xsim_if_goal_sum:nnnTF and friends,
+ \IfExerciseTypeGoalsSumTF and \IfExerciseGoalsSumTF
+ - some more hints in the manual regarding collections
+ v0.8 2017/05/18 - bug fix in \xsim_set_property:nnnn
+ - random exercise lists from collections
+ - \xsim_collection_count:n
+ - \GetExerciseIdForProperty and \GetExerciseTypeForProperty
+ for unique properties
+ - set property `print=false' during collection and only to
+ true when the corresponding exercises actually are
+ printed
+ - do not insert \par at the beginning and end of exercises
+ and solutions; this should be left to the templates!
+ - new option `print-collection/print' which allows to
+ choose between exercises, solutions, and both to be
+ printed
+ - new parameter `solution-counter' in order to avoid
+ possible conflicts with existing counters
+ v0.8a 2017/05/19 - \IfPrintSolutionTF

+\xsim\ loads the packages \pkg{expl3}~\cite{bnd:l3kernel},
+\pkg{xparse}~\cite{bnd:l3packages}, \pkg{etoolbox}~\cite{pkg:etoolbox},
+\pkg{array}~\cite{pkg:array} \pkg{booktabs}~\cite{pkg:booktabs} and
+\pkg{translations}~\cite{pkg:translations}. All of these packages are present
+on a modern and up to date \TeX\ distribution such as \TeX~Live or MiK\TeX\ so
+no further action should be needed. When you are using \xsim\ you should be
+using an up to date \TeX\ distribution, anyway.
+
+\begin{bewareofthedog}
+ Newer versions of \xsim\ may depend on newer versions of the support
+ packages. Remember: it is always dangerous to update single packages.
+ Always update your \TeX\ distribution if you want an up to date version of a
+ package. Be careful: if you're in the middle of an important project it
+ might be better to wait with the update until you've finished the project.
+ Every update might be breaking some things.
+\end{bewareofthedog}
+
+\section{Motivation and Background}
+
+It has been quite a while since I first published
+\pkg{exsheets}~\cite{pkg:exsheets} in June 2012. Since then it has gained a
+user base and a little bit of popularity as the number of questions on tex.sx
+shows (103~at the time of writing)~\cite{texsx:tagged/exsheets}. User
+questions, bug reports and feature requests improved it over the time. It
+still has a version number starting with a zero, though, which in my
+versioning system means I still consider it experimental.
+
+This is due to several facts. It lacks a few features which I consider
+essential for a full version~1. For one thing it is not possible to have
+several kinds of exercises numbered independently. Using verbatim material
+such as listings inside exercises and solutions is not possible and the
+current workaround isn't that ideal either. One request which dates back
+quite a while now was to have different types of points to exercises\ldots
+
+All of those aren't easy to add due to the way \pkg{exsheets} is implemented
+right now. As a consequence I wanted to re-implement \pkg{exsheets} for a long
+time. This is what lead to \xsim. Internally the package works completely
+different.
+
+\begin{bewareofthedog}
+ \xsim\ will be the official successor of \pkg{exsheets} which is now
+ considered obsolete but will stay alive and will still receive bugfix
+ releases. However, new features will not be added to \pkg{exsheets} any
+ more.
+\end{bewareofthedog}
+
+\section{How to Read the Manual}\label{sec:how-read-manual}
+
+\subsection{Nomenclature}
+
+Throughout this manual certain terms are used. This section explains their
+meaning in this manual.
+
+\acuseall
+\printacronyms[heading=none]
+
+\subsection{Package Options}\label{sec:package-options}
+\xsim\ has these package options:
+\begin{options}
+ \opt{verbose}
+ Writes extensive information about what \xsim\ is doing into the log
+ file.
+ \opt{final}
+ If used the exercise and solution environments will not rewrite the
+ environment body files.
+ \opt{clear-aux}
+ If used every time the total number of exercise changes \xsim\ will write
+ \emph{less} information to the auxfile on the next run and only if the
+ number of exercises stays stable between compilations the needed
+ information will be written to the auxfile. \emph{This needs more
+ compilations until everything stabilizes but should reduce the
+ probability of possibly faulty exercises after changes to the document.}
+ The \option{final} option automatically disables this option. See also
+ sections~\vref{sec:how-exerc-envir} and~\vref{sec:resolve-getting}.
+\end{options}
+
+Those options are used the usual way as package option
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \usepackage[verbose]{xsim}
+\end{sourcecode}
+or as global option
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \documentclass[verbose]{article}
+\end{sourcecode}
+or via the setup command:
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{xsimsetup}[\marg{options}]
+ Set up \xsim's package options and all other options described at
+ other places in the manual.
+\end{commands}
+
+\subsection{Setting Options}
+Apart from the package options already described in
+section~\vref{sec:package-options} \xsim\ has further options. Those can be
+\enquote{toplevel} options or options belonging to a module.
+\begin{options}
+ \keyval*{toplevel}{value}
+ A toplevel option.
+ \keyval*{sublevel}{value}\Module*{module}
+ A sublevel option belonging to the module \module*{module}
+\end{options}
+Both kinds of options are set with \cs{xsimsetup}:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \xsimsetup{
+ toplevel = {value} ,
+ module/sublevel = {value}
+ }
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+\subsection{Command descriptions}
+
+Some commands do have a \expandablesymbol\ symbol printed next to their
+names. This indicates that the command is expandable, \ie, it is usable in an
+\cs*{edef} or \cs*{write} context and will expand according to its
+description. All other commands are engine protected, \ie, in the sense of
+\eTeX's \cs*{protected}.
+
+Some command name descriptions end with \code{\TF}.
+\begin{commands}
+ \command*{SomeCommand\TF}[\meta{arguments}\marg{true}\marg{false}]
+ A command with maybe some arguments and ending with the two arguments
+ \meta{true} and \meta{false}.
+\end{commands}
+This means two things: the command is a conditional which tests something and
+depending on the outcome of the test leaves either the \meta{true} argument
+(\code{T}) or the \meta{false} argument (\code{F}) in the input stream. It
+also means two additional commands exist:
+\begin{commands}
+ \command*{SomeCommandT}[\meta{arguments}\marg{true}]
+ The same as \cs*{SomeCommandTF} but only with the \meta{true} argument and
+ no \meta{false} argument.
+ \command*{SomeCommandF}[\meta{arguments}\marg{false}]
+ The same as \cs*{SomeCommandTF} but only with the \meta{false} argument and
+ no \meta{true} argument.
+\end{commands}
+
+
+\section{Exercises and Solutions}
+
+The two predefined environments for exercises and solutions are the following
+ones:
+\begin{environments}
+ \environment{exercise}[\oarg{\acsp*{prop}}]
+ Input and typeset an exercise. See section~\vref{sec:exercise-properties}
+ for details on exercise \acsp*{prop}.
+ \environment{solution}[\oarg{options}]
+ Input and typeset the solution to the exercise of the previous
+ \env{exercise} environment. See section~\vref{sec:printing-solutions} for
+ details on options of solutions.
+\end{environments}
+
+\begin{example}
+ \begin{exercise}
+ A first example for an exercise.
+ \end{exercise}
+ \begin{solution}
+ A first example for a solution.
+ \end{solution}
+\end{example}
+
+As can be seen in the example a solution is not printed with the default
+setup. This can be changed using the following option.
+\begin{options}
+ \keybool{print}\Module{solution}\Default{false}
+ Set if solutions are printed or or not.
+\end{options}
+
+The option (belonging to the module \module*{solution}) can either be set
+locally as option to the \env{solution} environment
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \begin{solution}[print=true]
+ A first example for a solution.
+ \end{solution}
+\end{sourcecode}
+or with the setup command for all following solutions:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \xsimsetup{
+ solution/print = true
+ }
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+There is an completely analoguous option for the \env{exercise} environment:
+\begin{options}
+ \keybool{print}\Module{exercise}\Default{true}
+ Set if exercises are printed or or not.
+\end{options}
+More details on those two environments can be found in
+section~\vref{sec:using-printing}.
+
+\section{How the Exercise Environments Work}\label{sec:how-exerc-envir}
+Both enviroments write the contents of their bodies verbatim to external files
+following a certain naming structure:
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item
+ \code{\meta{jobname}-\meta{type}-\meta{id}-exercise|solution-body.tex}
+\end{itemize}
+The name starts with the name of the job (which is the name of the document
+itself) followed by type and id of the corresponding exercise and then
+followed by the environment type. For example both enviroments from the first
+example have been written to files named
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item \verbcode+xsim_manual-exercise-1-exercise-body.tex+ and
+ \item \verbcode+xsim_manual-exercise-1-solution-body.tex+, respectively.
+\end{itemize}
+Details on the \meta{type} of an exercise will be given in
+section~\vref{sec:new-exercise-types}. \emph{The \meta{id} of an exercise is
+ a positive integer unique to each exercise environment regardless if the
+ exercise is being printed or used at all.}
+
+These external files are input when the respective exercise or solution is
+printed. An advantage of using external files is that \emph{verbatim material
+ is allowed} inside the environments. Each of those files contains some
+information about itself and where and why it was generated\footnote{In this
+ example the sourcecode line number is misleading as the example where the
+ file was generated itself was an external file where the \env{exercise}
+ environment indeed \emph{was} on line~1.}:
+
+\inputsourcecode{exercises/xsim_manual-exercise-1-exercise-body.tex}
+
+Arguably one downside of the approach using external files for each exercise
+and its solution is that your project folder will be cluttered with files. In
+order to deal with this somehow \xsim\ offers the following option:
+\begin{options}
+ \keyval{path}{path name}\Default
+ With this option a subfolder or path within the main project folder can be
+ given. Exercises will be written to and included from this path.
+ \emph{The path must exist on your system before you can use it!} This
+ document uses \keyis{path}{exercises}.
+\end{options}
+
+\begin{bewareofthedog}
+ \xsim\ writes a lot of stuff to the auxfile for re-using information on
+ subsequent compilations. If you add exercises, change properties \etc\ it
+ might happen that wrong information is staying in the auxfile and is wrongly
+ used by \xsim. In such cases deleting the auxfile and doing a few fresh
+ compilations may resolve your problems.
+
+ Sometimes the \emph{existence of exercise or solution files from earlier
+ compilations} may lead to wrong lists of exercises or solutions. In such
+ cases it can be useful to delete all those files and doing a fresh
+ compilation. It may be helpful to use a subfolder for those exernal files
+ which will make deleting them a little bit easier. (Don't forget to both
+ create the subfolder and set \option{path} accordingly then.)
+
+ Using the \option{clear-aux} option might help to reduce erroneous exercises.
+\end{bewareofthedog}
+
+\section{New Exercise Types}\label{sec:new-exercise-types}
+
+It is easy to define new exercise environments together with a corresponding
+solution environment using the following command:
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{DeclareExerciseType}[\marg{type}\marg{parameters}]
+ Declare a new exercise type analoguous to the \env{exercise} and
+ \env{solution} environments.
+\end{commands}
+Declaring a new exercise type will also define a new command:
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{numberof\meta{exercise-env}s}
+ These commands hold the absolut number of used exercises of type
+ \meta{type}. The meaning of \meta{exercise-env} will become clear below
+ when the exercise parameters are explained. It is always the same as the
+ exercise environment name.
+\end{commands}
+\begin{example}
+ There are \numberofexercises~exercises and \numberofproblems~problem in this
+ manual.
+\end{example}
+\xsim's pre-defined environment pair has been defined as follows:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \DeclareExerciseType{exercise}{
+ exercise-env = exercise ,
+ solution-env = solution ,
+ exercise-name = \XSIMtranslate{exercise} ,
+ solution-name = \XSIMtranslate{solution} ,
+ exercise-template = default ,
+ solution-template = default
+ }
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+The above already is an example for almost all parameters that can (and often
+must) be set. Here is the complete list:
+\begin{parameters}
+ \paraval{exercise-env}{exercise environment name}
+ The name for the environment used for the exercises of type \meta{type}.
+ \emph{This parameter is mandatory.} It can't be changed afterwards.
+ \paraval{solution-env}{solution environment name}
+ The name for the environment used for the solutions of type \meta{type}.
+ \emph{This parameter is mandatory.} It can't be changed afterwards.
+ \paraval{exercise-name}{exercise name}
+ The name of the exercises of type \meta{type} -- used for typesetting.
+ \emph{This parameter is mandatory.}
+ \paraval{solution-name}{solution name}
+ The name of the solutions of type \meta{type} -- used for typesetting.
+ \emph{This parameter is mandatory.}
+ \paraval{exercise-template}{exercise template}
+ The template used for typesetting the exercises of type \meta{type}.
+ \emph{This parameter is mandatory.} See
+ section~\vref{sec:styl-exerc-templ} for details on templates.
+ \paraval{solution-template}{solution template}
+ The template used for typesetting the exercises of type \meta{type}.
+ \emph{This parameter is mandatory.} See
+ section~\vref{sec:styl-exerc-templ} for details on templates.
+ \paraval{counter}{counter name}
+ The counter used for the exercises of type \meta{type}. If not explicitly
+ set the counter with the same name as \parameter{exercise-env} is used.
+ Otherwise the specified counter is used. This enables to have different
+ types of exercises sharing a common counter. \emph{This parameter can't
+ be changed afterwards.} If the explicit or implicit counter does not
+ exist, yet, it will be defined.
+ \paraval{solution-counter}{counter name}
+ The counter used for the solutions of type \meta{type}. If not explicitly
+ set the counter with the same name as \parameter{solution-env} is used.
+ Otherwise the specified counter is used. This enables to have different
+ types of solutions sharing a common counter although this doesn't actually
+ make much sense. But it can be useful to avoid using an already existing
+ counter. \emph{This parameter can't be changed afterwards.} If the
+ explicit or implicit counter does not exist, yet, it will be defined. The
+ sole purpose of this counter is to be able to label solutions so they can
+ be \cs*{pageref}ed.
+ \paraval{number}{integer}
+ An internal parameter that is used to keep track of the number of
+ exercises of a type. This parameter cannot be set or changed by the
+ user.
+\end{parameters}
+
+It is possible to change some of the parameters after an exercise type has
+been defined. Those include \parameter{exercise-name},
+\parameter{solution-name}, \parameter{exercise-template}, and
+\parameter{solution-template}:
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{SetExerciseParameter}[\marg{type}\marg{parameter}\marg{value}]
+ Usable to set a single parameter to a new value.
+ \command{SetExerciseParameters}[\marg{type}\marg{parameters}]
+ Set several parameters at once. \meta{parameters} is a csv list of
+ key/value pairs.
+\end{commands}
+If you try to set an already set but fixed parameter like
+\parameter{exercise-env} a warning will be written to the log file. For all
+parameters that can be changed also options exist wich can be set via
+\cs{xsimsetup}. They are explained in
+section~\vref{sec:environment-options-hooks}.
+
+\begin{bewareofthedog}
+ All exercises of a type use the parameters
+ (\eg, \parameter{exercise-template}) that are \emph{currently active}. If
+ you want exercises with a different look or different names in the same
+ document you should use different exercises types.
+\end{bewareofthedog}
+
+\section{Exercise Properties}\label{sec:exercise-properties}
+
+\subsection{Predefined Properties}
+
+Exercise like the \env{exercise} environment and possibly others defined with
+\cs{DeclareExerciseType} have a number of predefined \acsp*{prop}:
+\begin{properties}
+ \propval{id}{integer}
+ Holds the internal id of an exercise. \emph{Cannot be set by the user}.
+ \propval{ID}{text}
+ Holds the user id of an exercise if defined. Otherwise it is equal to
+ \property{id}.
+ \propval{counter}{text}
+ Holds the counter value represenation of an exercise (\ie, what you
+ usually know as \cs*{the\meta{counter}}). \emph{Cannot be set by the
+ user}.
+ \propval{counter-value}{integer}
+ Holds the counter value of an exercise (\ie, what you usually know as
+ \cs*{arabic}\marg{counter}). \emph{Cannot be set by the user}.
+ \propval{subtitle}{text}
+ Holds the subtitle of an exercise.
+ \propval{points}{number}
+ Holds the reachable points of an exercise.
+ \propval{bonus-points}{number}
+ Holds the reachable bonus-points of an exercise.
+ \propbool{print}
+ Holds the print boolean of an exercise.
+ \propbool{print\bang}
+ Holds a special print boolean of an exercise, see
+ page~\pageref{property:print!}.
+ \propbool{use}
+ Holds the usage boolean of an exercise.
+ \propbool{use\bang}
+ Holds a special usage boolean of an exercise, see
+ page~\pageref{property:print!}.
+ \propbool{used}
+ True if an exercise has been used at least once. For an existing exercise
+ this is only false for exercises that have been collected
+ (\cf~section~\vref{sec:collecting-exercises}).
+ \propval{tags}{csv list of tags}
+ Holds the list of tags the exercise should be associated with.
+ \propval{topics}{csv list of topics}
+ Holds the list of topics the exercise should be associated with.
+ \propval{page}{text}
+ Holds the page counter value represenation of an exercise (\ie, what you
+ usually know as \cs*{thepage}).
+ \propval{page-value}{integer}
+ Holds the page counter value of an exercise (\ie, what you usually know as
+ \cs*{arabic}\Marg{page}).
+ \propval{section}{text}
+ Holds the section counter value represenation of an exercise (\ie, what
+ you usually know as \cs*{thesection}).
+ \propval{section-value}{integer}
+ Holds the section counter value of an exercise (\ie, what you usually know
+ as \cs*{arabic}\Marg{section}).
+ \propval{chapter}{text}
+ Holds the chapter counter value represenation of an exercise (\ie, what
+ you usually know as \cs*{thechapter}). \emph{Only if a command
+ \cs*{chapter} \emph{and} a counter \code{chapter} exist.}
+ \propval{chapter-value}{integer}
+ Holds the chapter counter value of an exercise (\ie, what you usually know
+ as \cs*{arabic}\Marg{chapter}). \emph{Only if a command \cs*{chapter}
+ \emph{and} a counter \code{chapter} exist.}
+\end{properties}
+
+Some of these \acsp*{prop} are fixed and cannot be set by the user. Those
+include \property{id}, \property{counter}, and \property{counter-value}. The
+others can be set using the optional argument of the exercise environment.
+
+\begin{example}
+ \begin{exercise}[subtitle={This is a subtitle},points=4,bonus-points=1]
+ An exercise where some properties have been set.
+ \end{exercise}
+\end{example}
+
+\subsection{Declaring Own Properties}
+
+\xsim\ offers the possibility to declare additional exercise properties:
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{DeclareExerciseProperty}[\barg\sarg\narg\marg{property}]
+ Declares the property \meta{property}.
+
+ If used with the optional \barg\ star a unique property is defined which
+ means that each exercise must have a property value distinct from all
+ other exercises (all means all -- \emph{independent from the exercise type}).
+
+ If used with the optional \sarg\ a boolean property is defined which
+ means that it only should get the values \code{true} or \code{false} and
+ if used without value it gets the value \code{true} instead of an empty
+ value. If any other value is used the property is set to
+ \code{false}. A boolean option obviously cannot be unique. The optional
+ \sarg\ takes precedence over the optional \barg, \ie, if both are present
+ the property is boolean \emph{but not} unique.
+
+ If used with the optional \narg\ a property is defined which won't get
+ updated through subsequent compilation runs but is only set when the
+ exercise is used.
+ \command{DeclareExercisePropertyAlias}[\marg{property 1}\marg{property 2}]
+ Declares \meta{property 1} to be an alias of \meta{property 2}. This
+ means that each time \meta{property 2} is set \meta{property 1} will be
+ set to the same value \emph{unless} it has been set already. As an
+ example: property \property{ID} is an alias of property \property{id}.
+\end{commands}
+
+This is better demonstrated with an example:
+\begin{example}
+ \begin{exercise}
+ \lipsum[4] % from package `lipsum'
+ \verb+\GetExerciseProperty{id}+: \GetExerciseProperty{id} \par
+ \verb+\GetExerciseAliasProperty{ID}+: \GetExerciseAliasProperty{ID} \par
+ \verb+\GetExerciseProperty{ID}+: \GetExerciseProperty{ID}
+ \end{exercise}
+ \begin{exercise}[ID=foo-bar]
+ \lipsum[4]
+ \verb+\GetExerciseProperty{id}+: \GetExerciseProperty{id} \par
+ \verb+\GetExerciseAliasProperty{ID}+: \GetExerciseAliasProperty{ID} \par
+ \verb+\GetExerciseProperty{ID}+: \GetExerciseProperty{ID}
+ \end{exercise}
+\end{example}
+
+The power of properties will get more clear when reading
+section~\vref{sec:styl-exerc-templ} about templates.
+
+\subsection{A Special Kind of Property: Exercise Goals}\label{sec:goals}
+
+Exercise goals are a generic concept in \xsim\ for exercise properties like
+\property{points} or \property{bonus-points}. Those are properties which can
+(only) get a decimal number as value the sum of which is calculated and
+available (after a compilation) throughout the document.
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{DeclareExerciseGoal}[\marg{goal}]
+ Declare a new exercise goal named \meta{goal} and also a property called
+ \meta{goal}.
+ \command{TotalExerciseTypeGoal}[\marg{type}\marg{goal}\marg{singular}\marg{plural}]
+ Get the sum of goal \meta{goal} for all exercises of type \meta{type}.
+ \meta{singular} and \meta{plural} are placed after the sum in the input
+ stream depending on whether the sum equals~$1$ or not.
+ \command{TotalExerciseTypeGoals}[\marg{type}\marg{list of
+ goals}\marg{singular}\marg{plural}]
+ Get the sum of goal all goals in \meta{list of goals} for all exercises of
+ type \meta{type}. The goal names in \meta{list of goals} must be
+ separated with \code{+}. \meta{singular} and \meta{plural} are placed
+ after the sum in the input stream depending on whether the sum equals~$1$
+ or not.
+ \command{TotalExerciseGoal}[\marg{goal}\marg{singular}\marg{plural}]
+ Get the sum of goal \meta{goal} for all exercises. \meta{singular} and
+ \meta{plural} are placed after the sum in the input stream depending on
+ whether the sum equals~$1$ or not.
+ \command{TotalExerciseGoals}[\marg{list of
+ goals}\marg{singular}\marg{plural}]
+ Get the sum of goal all goals in \meta{list of goals} for all exercises.
+ The goal names in \meta{list of goals} must be separated with
+ \code{+}. \meta{singular} and \meta{plural} are placed after the sum in
+ the input stream depending on whether the sum equals~$1$ or not.
+ \command{AddtoExerciseTypeGoal}[\marg{type}\marg{goal}\marg{value}]
+ Adds \meta{value} to the goal \meta{goal} of exercise type \meta{type}.
+ \command{AddtoExerciseTypeGoalPrint}[\marg{type}\marg{goal}\marg{value}%
+ \marg{singular}\marg{plural}]
+ Adds \meta{value} to the goal \meta{goal} of exercise type \meta{type}.
+ The value and -- depending on wether the value equals $1$ or not --
+ \meta{singular} or \meta{plural} are left in the input stream.
+ \command{AddtoExerciseGoal}[\marg{goal}\marg{value}]
+ Adds \meta{value} to the goal \meta{goal} of the current exercise
+ type. (To be used within exercises.)
+ \command{AddtoExerciseTypeGoalPrint}[\marg{goal}\marg{value}%
+ \marg{singular}\marg{plural}]
+ Adds \meta{value} to the goal \meta{goal} of the current exercise type.
+ The value and -- depending on wether the value equals $1$ or not --
+ \meta{singular} or \meta{plural} are left in the input stream. (To be used
+ within exercises.)
+ \command{ExerciseGoalValuePrint}[\marg{value}\marg{singular}\marg{plural}]
+ Print \meta{value} and -- depending on wether the value equals $1$ or not --
+ \meta{singular} or \meta{plural}.
+ \command{printgoal}[\marg{value}]
+ Print \meta{value} according to option \option{goal-print}. Defined in
+ terms of \cs{ExerciseGoalValuePrint}.
+ \command{printpoints}[\marg{type}]
+ Print the sum of points for all exercises of type \meta{type} followed by
+ an appropriate translation of the words \enquote{point} or
+ \enquote{points}, respectively\footnote{See section~\vref{sec:exerc-transl}
+ for details on the definition and usage of language dependent words.}.
+ Defined in terms of \cs{TotalExerciseTypeGoal}.
+ \command{printtotalpoints}
+ Print the sum of points for all exercises followed by an appropriate
+ translation of the words \enquote{point} or \enquote{points},
+ respectively. Defined in terms of \cs{TotalExerciseGoal}.
+ \command{addpoints}[\sarg\marg{value}]
+ Adds \meta{value} to the points of the current exercise type. (To be used
+ within exercises.) Prints the value followed by an appropriate
+ translation of the words \enquote{point} or \enquote{points},
+ respectively. The starred version prints nothing. Defined in terms of
+ \cs{AddtoExerciseGoal} and \cs{AddtoExerciseGoalPrint}.
+ \command{points}[\marg{value}]
+ Print \meta{value}followed by an appropriate translation of the words
+ \enquote{point} or \enquote{points}, respectively. Defined in terms of
+ \cs{ExerciseGoalValuePrint}.
+ \command{printbonus}[\marg{type}]
+ Print the sum of bonus points for all exercises of type \meta{type}
+ followed by an appropriate translation of the words \enquote{point} or
+ \enquote{points}, respectively. Defined in terms of
+ \cs{TotalExerciseTypeGoal}.
+ \command{printtotalbonus}
+ Print the sum of bonus points for all exercises followed by an appropriate
+ translation of the words \enquote{point} or \enquote{points},
+ respectively. Defined in terms of \cs{TotalExerciseGoal}.
+ \command{addbonus}[\sarg\marg{value}]
+ Adds \meta{value} to the bonus points of the current exercise type. (To be
+ used within exercises.) Prints the value followed by an appropriate
+ translation of the words \enquote{point} or \enquote{points},
+ respectively. The starred version prints nothing. Defined in terms of
+ \cs{AddtoExerciseGoal} and \cs{AddtoExerciseGoalPrint}.
+\end{commands}
+
+The two existing goals are defined with
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \DeclareExerciseGoal{points}
+ \DeclareExerciseGoal{bonus-points}
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+When goal values are printed the decimal number is fed to a function which can
+be changed using the following option:
+\begin{options}
+ \keyval{goal-print}{code}\Default{\#1}
+ How to format goal values. Use \code{\#1} to refer to the actual number.
+\end{options}
+
+At last some examples for a custom command: let's say you want a command which
+prints the complete sum for all exercises of all exercise types of both
+\property{points} \emph{and} \property{bonus-points} added up:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \NewDocumentCommand\printsumofpointsandbonus{}{%
+ \TotalExerciseGoals{points+bonus-points}
+ {\,\XSIMtranslate{point}}
+ {\,\XSIMtranslate{points}}%
+ }
+\end{sourcecode}
+Here is how you could mimick the command \cs*{totalpoints} from
+\pkg{exsheets}:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \NewDocumentCommand\pointsandbonus{}{%
+ \TotalExerciseGoal{points}{}{}%
+ \IfExerciseGoalsSumF{bonus-points}{=0}
+ {\,(+\,\TotalExerciseGoal{bonus-points}{}{})}%
+ \,\XSIMtranslate{points}%
+ }
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+
+\subsection{A Special Kind of Property: Exercise Tags}\label{sec:tags}
+
+Exercise tags are a generic concept in \xsim\ for exercise properties like
+\property{tags} or \property{topics}. Those are properties which can (only)
+get a csv list of strings as value. Those strings can be used to selectively
+use exercises. See section~\vref{sec:using-printing} for details on
+\emph{usage} of exercises and the difference to \emph{printing} an exercise
+and how to use exercise tags for selection.
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{DeclareExerciseTagging}[\marg{tag}]
+ This defines an exercise tagging group named \meta{tag}. It also defines a
+ property named \meta{tag}. In addition two options are defined: an option
+ named \code{\meta{tag}} which can be used for selection and an boolean
+ option \code{\meta{tag}/ignore-untagged}.
+\end{commands}
+The two existing tagging groups have been defined and preset with the
+following code:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \DeclareExerciseTagging{tags}
+ \DeclareExerciseTagging{topics}
+ \xsimsetup{tags/ingore-untagged=false}
+\end{sourcecode}
+This means that these options are available:
+\begin{options}
+ \keyval{tags}{csv list of tags}
+ Choose the set of tags whose associated exercises should be printed.
+ \keyval{topics}{csv list of topics}
+ Choose the set of tags whose associated exercises should be printed.
+ \keybool{ignore-tagging}\Module{tags}\Default{false}
+ If set to true exercises with no tags will be printed even if tags have
+ been chosen with the option \option{tags}.
+ \keybool{ignore-tagging}\Module{topics}\Default{true}
+ If set to true exercises with no topics will be printed even if tags have
+ been chosen with the option \option{topics}.
+\end{options}
+
+It may happen that you choose certain tags for printing and want one or two
+exercises to be printed or used even if they don't match the tagging
+criteria. For this reason two additional properties exist which can be set to
+an exercise:\label{property:print!}
+\begin{properties}
+ \propbool{print\bang}
+ If set to true the exercise will be printed (and thus used) regardless of
+ other conditions.
+ \propbool{use\bang}
+ If set to true the exercise will be used regardless of other conditions.
+\end{properties}
+
+\section{Using and Printing an Exercise}\label{sec:using-printing}
+\subsection{What the Environments do}
+
+When an exercise is started with \environ{exercise} (or other environments
+defined through \cs{DeclareExerciseType}) then different things happen
+depending on different settings:
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item If the \emph{insert mode} is active nothing happens, see
+ section~\vref{sec:collecting-exercises} for details on this.
+ \item Else the id integer is incremented.
+ \item If the exercise is \emph{used} the corresponding counter is stepped
+ and the exercise is added to the \enquote{use list}. The properties
+ \property{counter} and \property{use} are updated accordingly.
+ \item If an exercise is \emph{printed} then it is also \emph{used}. An
+ exercise that isn't used cannot be printed. Being printed means two
+ things: being added to the \enquote{print list} and being typeset at the
+ position where the exercise is placed in the source file. If an exercise
+ is \emph{not printed but used} it means that the counter will be stepped.
+ This can be useful for creating an exercise sheet only containing the
+ solutions for some exercises.
+ \item If an exercise is printed certain hooks and template code is inserted
+ around the environment body.
+\end{itemize}
+
+\begin{example}
+ \begin{exercise}[print=false]
+ This exercise will not be printed but the exercise counter will be
+ incremented nonetheless. Its solution will be printed in the list of
+ solutions.
+ \end{exercise}
+ \begin{solution}
+ The solution of the exercise that has not been printed.
+ \end{solution}
+\end{example}
+
+The schematic structure of an exercise is shown in
+figure~\vref{fig:schematic-structure}.
+
+\begin{figure}
+ \centering
+ \begin{tikzpicture}
+ \node[draw,minimum width=.7\linewidth] at (0,0) {pre hook};

+ \caption{Schematic structure of an exercise or solution.}\label{fig:schematic-structure}
+\end{figure}
+
+\subsection{Environment Options \& Hooks}\label{sec:environment-options-hooks}
+
+For each exercise type there are the following options for both environments,

+\subsection{(Re-) Inserting a Certain Exercise}
+If you know type and \property{id} of an exercise you can (re-)insert every
+existing exercise, \ie, every exercise whose external file exists.
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{printexercise}[\marg{type}\marg{id}]
+ Inserts the exercise of type \meta{type} with the \property{id}
+ \meta{id}.
+\end{commands}
+\begin{example}
+ \printexercise{exercise}{5}
+\end{example}
+
+\section{Collecting Exercises}\label{sec:collecting-exercises}
+
+\subsection{Background}
+\xsim\ knows the concept of \enquote{exercise collections}. A collection of
+exercises can be useful when you want to print a certain group of exercises
+several times. Each collection must have a unique name with which you can
+refer to the corresponding collection. A collection is realized by declaring
+the collection and by surrounding the exercises belonging to the collection
+with a certain pair of commands (this is explained in the next section).
+
+Let's say you have several files of math exercises where one only contains
+geometry exercises and another only calculus exercises and so on. Surrounding
+the \cs*{input} of each file with said pair of commands for a certain
+collection all exercises of the corresponding file now are a collection which
+then can be printed at once whereever you want the collection of exercises to
+be printed. By choosing certain tags (see section~\vref{sec:tags}) inside
+each collection you could even cherry-pick exercises from the external file.
+
+\subsection{Usage}
+\emph{A collection must be declared in the preamble.} Using a pair of
+commands explained below exercises between those commands are added to the
+corresponding collection but not printed. After a collection is completed the
+collection can be printed as often as needed.
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{DeclareExerciseCollection}[\marg{collection name}]
+ Define a new collection \meta{collection name} in the document preamble.
+ \command{collectexercisestype}[\marg{collection name}\marg{exercise type}]
+ Opens the collection \meta{collection name} which now collects all
+ exercises of type \meta{exercise type} until the collection is closed with
+ \cs{collectexercisesstop}. Collections of other types are not
+ collected\footnote{This command starts a group with
+ \cs*{begingroup}!}.
+ \command{collectexercises}[\marg{collection name}]
+ Opens the collection \meta{collection name} which now collects all
+ exercises until the collection is closed with
+ \cs{collectexercisesstop}\footnote{This command starts a group with
+ \cs*{begingroup}!}.
+ \command{collectexercisesstop}[\marg{collection name}]
+ Closes the collection \meta{collection name}\footnote{This command ends
+ a group with \cs*{endgroup}!}.
+ \command{printcollection}[\oarg{options}\marg{collection name}]
+ Prints the collection \meta{collection name}, \ie, all exercises collected
+ earlier. This command cannot be used before the corresponding collection
+ has been closed correctly.
+\end{commands}
+
+Valid options are the following:
+\begin{options}
+ \keybool{headings}\Module{print-collection}\Default{false}
+ If true a heading for each exercise type is inserted.
+ \keyval{headings-template}{template}\Module{print-collection}\Default{collection}
+ The heading template used when \keyis{headings}{true}.
+ \keychoice{print}{exercises,solutions,both}\Module{print-collection}\Default{exercises}
+ Determines wether \cs{printcollection} prints the exercises or the
+ solutions of the collection. When you choose \code{both} exercises and
+ solutions are printed alternately.
+\end{options}
+
+Those options can also be set via \cs{xsimsetup} using the module
+\module{print-collection}.
+
+\begin{bewareofthedog}
+ Please be aware that exercises are not used or printed while they are
+ collected. Nonetheless the property \property{use} is set to \code{true}
+ (so that solutions can be printed even if the exercises are not) and the
+ property \property{print} is set to \code{false}. Also their counters are
+ \emph{not stepped} during the process. This only happens when they are
+ printed the first time, \cf~the \property{used} property. At that time
+ also the properties \property{page}, \property{section} and
+ \property{chapter} are set and the property \property{print} is set to
+ \code{true}.
+\end{bewareofthedog}
+
+The usage should be clear:
+\begin{example}
+ \collectexercises{foo}
+ \begin{exercise}
+ This exercise is added to the collection `foo'.
+ \end{exercise}
+ \begin{exercise}
+ This exercise is also added to the collection `foo'.
+ \end{exercise}
+ \begin{exercise}
+ So is this.
+ \end{exercise}
+ \begin{exercise}
+ As well as this one.
+ \end{exercise}
+ \collectexercisesstop{foo}
+\end{example}
+Once the collection is closed it can be printed:
+\begin{example}
+ \printcollection{foo}
+\end{example}
+
+You can open several collections at the same time:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \collectexercises{foo}
+ ...
+ \collectexercisestype{bar}{exercises}
+ ...
+ \collectexercisesstop{bar}
+ ...
+ \collectexercisesstop{foo}
+\end{sourcecode}
+Exercises will be added to each open collection.
+
+There is one generic collection called \enquote{\code{all exercises}}. As the
+name already suggests it will hold all exercises. So if you say
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \printcollection{all exercises}
+\end{sourcecode}
+all exercises will be printed.
+
+\begin{bewareofthedog}
+ If you use \cs*{label}s inside of exercises and you print exercises more
+ than once in your document (by reusing a collection for example) you will
+ get
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ LaTeX Warning: There were multiply-defined labels.
+\end{sourcecode}
+ Equally if you have environments like \environ{equation} which step a
+ counter inside an exercise or solution the counter will be stepped each time
+ the exercise is used.
+\end{bewareofthedog}
+
+At last now an example using external files, collections and tags:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ % preamble:
+ % \DeclareExerciseCollection{foo-easy}
+ % \DeclareExerciseCollection{foo-medium}
+ % \DeclareExerciseTagging{difficulty}
+
+ % document:
+ \collectexercises{foo-easy}
+ \xsimsetup{difficulty=easy}
+ \input{foo.tex}
+ \collectexercisesstop{foo-easy}
+ % collection `foo-easy' now contains all exercises of file `foo.tex' tagged
+ % with `difficulty=easy'
+
+ \collectexercises{foo-medium}
+ \xsimsetup{difficulty=medium}
+ \input{foo.tex}
+ \collectexercisesstop{foo-medium}
+ % collection `foo-medium' now contains all exercises of file `foo.tex'
+ % tagged with `difficulty=medium'
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+\begin{bewareofthedog}
+ The recommended usage is similar to the last example. Actually a collection
+ can be printed \emph{before} it is opened, too. (This needs \emph{at least}
+ two compilations, though.) However, it is safer printing a collection only
+ once and only \emph{after it has been collected}. No guaranties are given
+ that properties are set correctly if you use the collection before. You
+ usually also will make sure that the exercises in a collection are unique,
+ \ie, that an exercises is not part of several collections -- at least not if
+ both collections are printed in the same document.
+\end{bewareofthedog}
+
+\section{Printing Random Exercises From a Collection}
+\xsim\ provides the possibility of selecting random exercises from a
+collection (\cf~section~\vref{sec:collecting-exercises}).
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{printrandomexercises}[\oarg{options}\marg{number}]
+ This command prints \meta{number} random exercises from the collection
+ chosen with option \option{collection}, see below. When this command is
+ used it generates a random list of integers which is written to the
+ \code{aux} file. On the subsequent compilations the according exercises
+ are printed. \emph{If you want to regenerate the random list you have to
+ delete the \code{aux} file before compiling.}
+\end{commands}
+Valid options for this command are:
+\begin{options}
+ \keybool{sort}\Module{random}\Default{true}
+ Determines wether the random chosen exercises should be sorted according
+ to their order of definition in the collection or not.
+ \keyval{collection}{collection}\Module{random}\Default{all exercises}
+ The collection from which the exercises are to be chosen from.
+ \keyval{exclude}{csv list of ids}\Module{random}
+ A list of \property{id}s or \property{ID}s of exercises \emph{not} to be
+ chosen.
+ \keychoice{print}{exercises,solutions,both}\Module{random}\Default{exercises}
+ Determines wether \cs{printrandomexercises} prints the exercises or the
+ solutions. When you choose \code{both} exercises and solutions are
+ printed alternately.
+\end{options}
+
+\begin{example}
+ \printrandomexercises[collection=foo]{2}
+\end{example}
+
+The example above of course doesn't make much sense but if have a collection
+which collects exercises from an external file and the exercise haven't been
+printed in the document before then you will get a list of subsequently
+numbered exercises.
+
+\section{Printing Solutions}\label{sec:printing-solutions}
+
+There are different commands for printing the solutions to exercises:
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{printsolutionstype}[\sarg\oarg{options}\marg{exercise type}]
+ Prints the solutions of all used exercises of type \meta{exercise type}.
+ The starred version only prints the solutions of all printed exercises of
+ type \meta{exercise type}.
+ \command{printsolutions}[\sarg\oarg{options}]
+ Prints the solutions of all used exercises of all types ordered by type.
+ The starred version only prints the solutions of all printed exercises of
+ all types.
+ \command{printallsolutions}[\sarg\oarg{options}]
+ Prints the solutions of all used exercises of all types ordered by
+ appearance in the document. The starred version only prints the solutions
+ of all printed exercises of all types.
+ \command{printsolution}[\oarg{options}\marg{type}\marg{id}]
+ Prints the solution of the exercise of type \meta{type} with the
+ \property{id} \meta{id}.
+\end{commands}
+
+\begin{example}
+ \printsolutionstype{exercise}
+\end{example}
+
+The options can be diveded into two groups. The ones in the first group
+modify the layout.
+\begin{options}
+ \keybool{headings}\Default{true}
+ If true a heading for each exercise type is inserted.
+ \keyval{headings-template}{template}\Default{default}
+ The heading template used when \keyis{headings}{true}.
+\end{options}
+
+The ones in the second group set conditions selecting which solutions are
+printed. If you combine those conditions a solution is printed if it meets
+either of the conditions.
+\begin{options}
+ \keychoice{section}{\default{true},false,\meta{integer}}\Default{false}
+ If you set \keyis{section}{true} only solutions of exercises of the
+ current section are printed. If you set \keyis{section}{4} only solutions
+ of exercises in a section with number~$4$ are printed.
+ \keychoice{chapter}{\default{true},false,\meta{integer}}\Default{false}
+ If you set \keyis{chapter}{true} only solutions of exercises of the
+ current chapter are printed. If you set \keyis{chapter}{4} only solutions
+ of exercises in a chapter with number~$4$ are printed.
+ \keychoice{collection}{false,\meta{collection name}}\Default{false}
+ If used only solutions of exercises belonging to collection
+ \meta{collection name} are printed.
+\end{options}
+
+The conditions can be combined. The following call will only print solutions
+from exercises in section~3 of chapter~2:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \printsolutions[chapter=2,section=3]
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+\begin{bewareofthedog}
+ The selection per section or per chapter relies on the \emph{counter
+ numbers} of the sections or chapters, respectively. This means if section
+ numbers are reset (\eg\ by \cs*{chapter} or \cs*{appendix}) and you have
+ exercises from \emph{different} sections with \emph{the same section number}
+ the solutions of \emph{all those exercises} will be printed. This means you
+ only should use the \option{section} selection when section are the top
+ document level headings (apart from parts) and you have no exercises in the
+ appendix. Similar considerations are valid for the \option{chapter}
+ selection.
+\end{bewareofthedog}
+
+All options can also be set via \cs{xsimsetup} using the module
+\module{print-solutions}.
+
+\begin{example}
+ \printsolutions[section=4,headings-template=per-section]
+\end{example}
+
+\begin{example}
+ \printsolution{exercise}{5}
+\end{example}
+
+\section{Grading Tables}\label{sec:grading-tables}
+When you create exercises it may not only be desirable to be able to add
+points and bonus-points to a question (see section~\vref{sec:goals} about
+exercise goals) but also to be able to output a grading table. \xsim\ has
+built-in means for this.
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{gradingtable}[\oarg{options}]
+ Print a grading table.
+\end{commands}
+Valid options for this command are
+\begin{options}
+ \keyval{template}{template}\Default{default}
+ Choose the template used for the grading table.
+ \keyval{type}{exercise type}\Default
+ Choose the exercise type for which the table is printed.
+\end{options}
+Both option defaults can be changed with \cs{xsimsetup} setting the options
+using \module{grading-table}:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \xsimsetup{
+ grading-table/template = default*
+ }
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+An example:
+\begin{example}
+ \gradingtable[type=exercise]
+\end{example}
+
+Or using the \enquote{\code{default*}} template:
+\begin{example}
+ \gradingtable[template=default*,type=exercise]
+\end{example}
+
+Available templates and how to define new ones are explained in
+sections~\vref{sec:grad-table-templ} and~\vref{sec:template-examples}. \xsim\
+per default provides two templates \enquote{\code{default}} and
+\enquote{\code{default*}}, the first one has a vertical layout, the second a
+horizontal layout. Both templates can be used per type like in the examples
+above or for all types at once by leaving the specification \option{type}
+away:
+\begin{example}
+ \gradingtable
+\end{example}
+
+\section{Styling the Exercises -- Templates}\label{sec:styl-exerc-templ}
+
+\subsection{Background}
+Whenever \xsim\ outputs something to be typeset it uses so-called templates
+for the task. \xsim\ knows of three different kinds of templates:
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item environment templates (see section~\vref{sec:envir-templ}),
+ \item heading templates (see section~\vref{sec:heading-templates}) and
+ \item grading table templates (see section~\vref{sec:grad-table-templ})
+\end{itemize}
+
+The most important one for the styling of the exercises are the environment
+templates. Those templates give you complete control over the look and
+arrangement of an exercise. To be able to do this \xsim\ provides a large
+number of commands which can be used only inside template
+definitions\footnote{The last sentence is wrong: those commands can be used
+ anywhere but most of them only give useful results inside of templates.}.
+Those commands are explained in the next section. Their usage will hopefully
+become clear in the examples in section~\vref{sec:template-examples}. Having
+full control over the layout comes at a price: you need to be able to program
+yourself in order to achieve certain layouts\footnote{I plan to incorporate
+ the most common layouts -- and maybe some fancy ones, too -- in the examples
+ section~\vref{sec:template-examples} but at the time of writing this is still
+ up in the air.}.
+
+\subsection{Commands for Usage in Template Definitions}

+ exercise:
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item \code{\#1}: the type of the exercise
+ \item \code{\#2}: the id of the exercise
+ \item \code{\#3}: the \property{counter} property of the exercise
+ \item \code{\#4}: the \property{subtitle} property of the exercise
+ \item \code{\#5}: the \property{points} property of the exercise
+ \item \code{\#6}: the \property{bonus-points} property of the exercise
+ \end{itemize}
+ \expandable\command{XSIMtranslate}[\marg{keyword}]
+ Delivers the translation of \meta{keyword} according to the current
+ document language (in the meaning of a \pkg{babel}~\cite{pkg:babel} or
+ \pkg{polyglossia}~\cite{pkg:polyglossia} language). Existing keywords and
+ keyword translations (and how to add new ones) are explained in
+ section~\vref{sec:exerc-transl}.
+ \command{XSIMexpandcode}[\marg{code}]
+ Expands \meta{code} like \cs*{edef} does and leaves the result in the
+ input stream.
+ \expandable\command{XSIMifchapter\TF}[\marg{true}\marg{false}]
+ Returns \meta{true} if both a macro \cs*{chapter} and a counter
+ \code{chapter} are defined and \meta{false} otherwise.
+ \command{XSIMmixedcase}[\marg{code}]
+ Converts the full expansion\footnote{This is a \cs*{romannumeral}
+ expansion~\cite{texsx:romannumeral}.\label{fn:romannumeral}} of
+ \meta{code} to mixed case: \\
+ \verbcode+\XSIMmixedcase{this is some text}+ \XSIMmixedcase{this is some
+ text} \\
+ \emph{This command expands \meta{code} before converting it}.
+ \command{XSIMputright}[\meta{macro}\marg{code}]
+ Extends the macro definition of \meta{macro} with \meta{code} putting it
+ to the right. This is more or less a local version of the LaTeX kernel
+ macro \cs*{g@addto@macro}.
+ \expandable\command{XSIMifeq\TF}[\marg{code 1}\marg{code
+ 2}\marg{true}\marg{false}]
+ Checks if the full expansion\footref{fn:romannumeral} of \meta{code 1} and
+ \meta{code 2} is the same tokenlist.
+ \expandable\command{XSIMifblank\TF}[\marg{code}\marg{true}\marg{false}]
+ Checks if the full expansion\footref{fn:romannumeral} of \meta{code} is
+ blank (\ie, if it is empty or only consists of spaces).

+
+\subsection{Declaring Templates}
+\subsubsection{Environment Templates}\label{sec:envir-templ}
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{DeclareExerciseEnvironmentTemplate}[\marg{name}\marg{begin
+ code}\marg{end code}]
+ Declare the environment template \meta{name}.
+\end{commands}
+Environment templates are used by the exercise and solution environments.
+Those are the templates set with the parameters \parameter{exercise-template}
+and \parameter{solution-template}.
+
+The predefined template is called \enquote{\code{default}}, see
+section~\vref{sec:exercise-templ-default}.
+
+\subsubsection{Heading Templates}\label{sec:heading-templates}
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{DeclareExerciseHeadingTemplate}[\marg{name}\marg{code}]
+ Declare the heading template \meta{name}.
+\end{commands}
+Heading templates are used by \cs{printsolutions}, \cs{printsolutionstype} and
+\cs{printcollection}. Those are the templates set with the option
+\option{headings-template} of the modules \module{print-solutions} and
+\module{print-collection}.
+
+The predefined templates are \enquote{\code{default}},
+\enquote{\code{collection}}, \enquote{\code{per-section}} and
+\enquote{\code{per-chapter}} see section~\vref{sec:headings-templates}.
+
+\subsubsection{Grading Table Templates}\label{sec:grad-table-templ}
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{DeclareExerciseTableTemplate}[\marg{name}\marg{code}]
+ Declare the grading table template \meta{name}.
+\end{commands}
+Table templates are used by \cs{gradingtable}. Those are the templates set
+with the option \option{template} of module \module{grading-table}
+
+The predefined templates are \enquote{\code{default}} and
+\enquote{\code{default}}, see sections~\vref{sec:table-templ-default}
+and~\vref{sec:table-templ-default*}.
+
+\subsection{Examples}\label{sec:template-examples}
+
+The repository of this package\footnote{GitHub:
+ \url{https://github.com/cgnieder/xsim/}, CTAN:
+ \url{http://www.ctan.org/pkg/xsim/}} currently includes
+\theexamplefiles~example documents demonstrating how different aspects of this
+package work or how different kinds of problems can be solved or how different
+kinds of layouts can be achieved as well as how solve concrete problems that
+have come up in different \LaTeX\ forums, see
+section~\vref{sec:example-files}.
+
+\subsubsection{The \code{default} Exercise Template}\label{sec:exercise-templ-default}
+
+Below the definition of the \code{default} exercise template provided by
+\xsim\ is shown:
+
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \DeclareExerciseEnvironmentTemplate{default}{%
+ \subsection*
+ {%
+ \XSIMmixedcase{\GetExerciseName}\nobreakspace
+ \GetExerciseProperty{counter}%
+ \IfInsideSolutionF
+ {%
+ \GetExercisePropertyT{subtitle}
+ { {\normalfont\itshape\PropertyValue}}%
+ }%
+ }
+ \GetExercisePropertyT{points}
+ {%
+ \marginpar
+ {%
+ \IfInsideSolutionF{\rule{1.2cm}{1pt}\slash}%
+ \PropertyValue
+ \GetExercisePropertyT{bonus-points}{~(+\PropertyValue)}%
+ ~\XSIMtranslate {point-abbr}%
+ }%
+ }%
+ }
+ {}
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+\subsubsection{A New Exercise Type Using \pkg*{tcolorbox}}
+Let's say we want exercises to be put in a \env*{tcolorbox}. We want a bold
+title and. if given, an italic subtitle. Exercises should also have the
+points after the subtitle in parentheses if given. Let's also say we want
+those to be an additional exercise type in addition to the ones \xsim\ already
+provides. This is shown with the following code which is also how the
+problems in this manual have been defined:
+
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \DeclareExerciseEnvironmentTemplate{tcolorbox}
+ {%
+ \tcolorbox[
+ colback = red!5!white ,
+ colframe = red!75!black ,
+ colbacktitle = yellow!50!red ,
+ coltitle = red!25!black ,
+ breakable ,
+ drop shadow ,
+ beforeafter skip = .5\baselineskip ,
+ title =
+ \textbf{\GetExerciseName~\GetExerciseProperty{counter}}%
+ \GetExercisePropertyT{subtitle}{ \textit{\PropertyValue}}%
+ \IfInsideSolutionF{%
+ \GetExercisePropertyT{points}{ % notice the space
+ (%
+ \PropertyValue
+ \IfExerciseGoalSingularTF{points}
+ {\XSIMtranslate{point}}
+ {\XSIMtranslate{points}}%
+ )%
+ }%
+ }%
+ ]%
+ }
+ {\endtcolorbox}
+
+ \DeclareExerciseType{problem}{
+ exercise-env = problem ,
+ solution-env = answer ,
+ exercise-name = Problem ,
+ solution-name = Answer ,
+ exercise-template = tcolorbox ,
+ solution-template = tcolorbox
+ }
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+See it in action:
+\begin{example}
+ \begin{problem}[subtitle=My subtitle,points=5]
+ This is a problem using a subtitle and points.
+ \end{problem}
+ \begin{answer}
+ This is the answer to problem~\GetExerciseProperty{counter}.
+ \end{answer}
+\end{example}
+
+\subsubsection{Mimicking \pkg*{exsheets}' \code{runin} Template}
+
+The following example shows how you could mimick \pkg*{exsheets}' \code{runin}
+template. The outcome isn't exactly the same since \pkg{exsheets} doesn't use
+\cs*{marginpar} but the result should look very similar. A safer definition
+would use a real sectioning command for the title.
+
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \usepackage{needspace}
+ \DeclareExerciseEnvironmentTemplate{runin}
+ {%
+ \par\vspace{\baselineskip}
+ \Needspace*{2\baselineskip}
+ \noindent
+ \textbf{\XSIMmixedcase{\GetExerciseName}~\GetExerciseProperty{counter}}%
+ \GetExercisePropertyT{subtitle}{ \textit{#1}} %
+ \GetExercisePropertyT{points}{%
+ \marginpar{%
+ \PropertyValue
+ \GetExercisePropertyT{bonus-points}{+\PropertyValue}%
+ \,\IfExerciseGoalSingularTF{points}
+ {\XSIMtranslate{point}}
+ {\XSIMtranslate{points}}%
+ }%
+ }%
+ }
+ {}
+\end{sourcecode}

+See it in action:
+\begin{example}
+ \xsimsetup{exercise/template=runin}
+ \renewcommand*\theexercise{\arabic{exercise}.}
+ \begin{exercise}[subtitle=exsheets' runin,points=2.5]
+ \lipsum[4]
+ \end{exercise}
+\end{example}
+
+\subsubsection{Mimicking \pkg*{exsheets}' \code{margin} Template}
+
+The following example shows how you could mimick \pkg*{exsheets}'
+\code{margin} template.
+
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \usepackage{needspace}
+ \DeclareExerciseEnvironmentTemplate{margin}
+ {%
+ \par\vspace{\baselineskip}
+ \Needspace*{2\baselineskip}

+ \GetExercisePropertyT{bonus-points}{+#1}%
+ \,\XSIMtranslate{point-abbr}%
+ )%
+ }%
+ \endtabular
+ } % notice the space
+ }%
+ }
+ {}
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+See it in action:

+ \xsimsetup{exercise/template=margin}
+ \renewcommand*\theexercise{\arabic{exercise}.}
+ \begin{exercise}[subtitle=exsheets' margin,points=2.5]
+ \lipsum[4]
+ \end{exercise}
+\end{example}
+
+\subsubsection{The Headings Templates}\label{sec:headings-templates}
+\xsim\ defines four heading templates which only differ by which text they
+output:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \DeclareExerciseHeadingTemplate{default}
+ {\section*{\XSIMtranslate{default-heading}}}
+ \DeclareExerciseHeadingTemplate{collection}
+ {\section*{\XSIMtranslate{collection-heading}}}
+ \DeclareExerciseHeadingTemplate{per-section}
+ {\section*{\XSIMtranslate{per-section-heading}}}
+ \DeclareExerciseHeadingTemplate{per-chapter}
+ {\section*{\XSIMtranslate{per-chapter-heading}}}
+\end{sourcecode}
+Section~\vref{sec:exerc-transl} shows how the translations are defined.
+
+\subsubsection{The \code{default} Table Template}\label{sec:table-templ-default}
+This template is the one used for grading tables per default. It has a
+vertical layout.
+
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \DeclareExerciseTableTemplate{default}{%
+ \XSIMputright\ExerciseTableCode{%
+ \toprule
+ \XSIMifblankTF{\ExerciseType}
+ {}
+ {\XSIMmixedcase{\GetExerciseParameter{exercise-name}}}

+ \noexpand\begin{tabular}{\XSIMifblankTF{\ExerciseType}{l}{c}cc}
+ \noexpand\ExerciseTableCode
+ \noexpand\end{tabular}%
+ }%
+ }
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+The part
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \XSIMifblankTF{\ExerciseType}{ ... }{ ... }
+\end{sourcecode}
+repeatedly checks if an exercise type has been given for the table. This
+makes it possible to design the table differently if it is for one exercise
+type only (the \code{true} case) or for all exercise types (the \code{false}
+case). \cs*{ExerciseTableType}\marg{code} either expands to the given
+exercise type or to \meta{code}.
+
+\subsubsection{The \code{default*} Table Template}\label{sec:table-templ-default*}
+The second of the predefined grading table templates. It has a horizontal
+layout.
+\begin{bewareofthedog}
+ If you have a lot of exercises the width of a table with this layout may
+ exceed the text width of the document!
+\end{bewareofthedog}

+\end{sourcecode}
+
+The part
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \XSIMifblankTF{\ExerciseType}{ ... }{ ... }
+\end{sourcecode}
+repeatedly checks if an exercise type has been given for the table. This
+makes it possible to design the table differently if it is for one exercise
+type only (the \code{true} case) or for all exercise types (the \code{false}
+case). \cs*{ExerciseTableType}\marg{code} either expands to the given
+exercise type or to \meta{code}.
+
+\section{Exercise Translations}\label{sec:exerc-transl}
+
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{DeclareExerciseTranslation}[\marg{keyword}\marg{language}\marg{translation}]
+ Declare the translation of \meta{keyword} for language \meta{language}.
+ \command{DeclareExerciseTranslations}[\marg{keyword}\marg{translations}]
+ Declare the translations of \meta{keyword} for several languages at once.
+ See an example of the usage below.
+ \expandable\command{XSIMtranslate}[\marg{keyword}]
+ Delivers the translation of \meta{keyword} according to the current
+ document language (in the meaning of a \pkg{babel}~\cite{pkg:babel} or
+ \pkg{polyglossia}~\cite{pkg:polyglossia} language).
+ \command{ForEachExerciseTranslation}[\marg{code}]
+ Loops over all translations of all keywords known to \xsim. Inside
+ \meta{code} you can refer to the keyword with \code{\#1}, to the language
+ with \code{\#2}, and to the translation with \code{\#3}.
+\end{commands}
+
+As an example how to use \cs{DeclareExerciseTranslations} here is how the
+translations for \code{exercise} have been defined:
+
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \DeclareExerciseTranslations{exercise}{
+ Fallback = exercise ,
+ English = exercise ,
+ French = exercice ,
+ German = \"Ubung
+ }
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+Table~\vref{tab:translation-keys} shows all existing keywords with all
+predefined translations.
+
+\ForEachExerciseTranslation{
+ \appto\translationtable{\texttt{#1} & #2 & \texttt{\detokenize{#3}} \\}
+}
+
+\begin{longtable}{llp{.55\linewidth}}
+ \caption{Translation keywords predefined by \xsim.}
+ \label{tab:translation-keys} \\
+ \toprule
+ \bfseries keyword & \bfseries language & \bfseries translation \\
+ \midrule
+ \endfirsthead
+ \toprule
+ \bfseries keyword & \bfseries language & \bfseries translation \\
+ \midrule
+ \endhead
+ \bottomrule
+ \endlastfoot
+ \midrule
+ & & \hfill\emph{continues} \\
+ \endfoot
+ \translationtable
+\end{longtable}
+
+\section{Cloze Tests and Blank Lines}
+
+Similar to \pkg{exsheets} \xsim\ provides a command \cs{blank}:
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{blank}[\sarg\oarg{options}\marg{text to be filled in}]
+ Creates a blank in normal text or in an exercise but fills the text of its
+ argument if inside a solution. If used at the \emph{begin of a paragraph}
+ \cs{blank} will do two things: it will set the linespread according to an
+ option explained below and will insert \cs*{par} after the lines. The
+ starred version doesn't do these things.
+\end{commands}
+
+Those are the options for customization:
+\begin{options}
+ \keyval{blank-style}{code}\Module{blank}\Default{\cs*{underline}\Marg{\#1}}
+ Instructions for typesetting the blank cloze. Refer to the filled in
+ space with \code{\#1}.
+ \keyval{filled-style}{code}\Module{blank}\Default{\cs*{underline}\Marg{\#1}}
+ Instructions for typesetting the filled cloze. Refer to the filled in text
+ with \code{\#1}
+ \keyval{style}{code}
+ Shortcut for setting both \option{blank-style} and \option{filled-style}
+ at once.
+ \keyval{scale}{decimal number}\Module{blank}\Default{\code{1}}
+\textsc{} Scales the blank to \meta{decimal number} times its natural width.
+ \keyval{width}{dim}\Module{blank}\Default
+ Sets the blank to a width of \meta{dim}. This takes precendence over
+ \option{scale}.
+ \keyval{linespread}{decimal number}\Module{blank}\Default{\code{1}}
+ Set the linespread for the blank lines. This only has an effect if
+ \cs{blank} is used at the begin of a paragraph.
+ \keyval{line-increment}{dim}\Module{blank}\Default{\code{1pt}}
+ The blank line is built in multiples of this value. If the value is too
+ large you may end up with uneven lines. If the value is too small you may
+ end up with a non-ending compilation. Experiment with values to find the
+ suiting one for your use case.
+ \keyval{line-minimum-length}{dim}\Module{blank}\Default{\code{2em}}
+ The minimal length a line must have before it is built step by step.
+\end{options}
+
+\begin{example}
+ This is a \blank{blank} outside in normal text.
+ \begin{exercise}
+ Try to fill in \blank[width=4cm]{these} blanks. All of them
+ \blank{are created} by using the \cs{blank} \blank{command}.
+ \end{exercise}
+ \xsimsetup{blank/filled-style=\textcolor{red}{#1}}
+ \begin{solution}[print]
+ Try to fill in \blank[width=4cm]{these} blanks. All of them
+ \blank{are created} by using the \cs{blank} \blank{command}.
+ \end{solution}
+\end{example}
+A number of empty lines are easily created by setting the \option{width}
+option:
+\begin{example}
+ Write up the pros and cons of \xsim\ over \pkg{exsheets}:
+
+ \blank[width=4.8\linewidth,linespread=1.5]{}
+\end{example}
+
+\edef\lastsection{\arabic{section}}
+
+\appendix
+
+\section{Future Plans}
+
+\xsim\ is complete in so far as it is perfectly usable to create exams or
+exercise and solution sections in books with the most freedom in layout
+already. But still there are features which would be useful additions. Below
+I list all ideas that I currently plan to add to \xsim:
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item a document class \code{xsim-exam} for creating exams; this class
+ should itself feature the possibility of creating different versions of an
+ exam, maybe already provide multiple choice questions and so on; one could
+ also think about automatic creation of running headers and footers, \ie,
+ means for changing the layout of the exam; following the spirit of \xsim\
+ this should probably be done using templates as well.
+\end{itemize}
+I am very open to suggestions regarding features, both in general and
+specifically regarding the document class.
+
+\section{FAQ \& How to\dots}
+This section serves as a kind of gallery showing solutions to common
+problems. I expect this section to grow over the years. Some examples
+especially regarding other layouts are also shown in example files added to
+this package.
+
+\subsection{\dots Know if \xsim\ Needs Another Compilation?}
+If \xsim\ wants you to recompile your document it writes the following to the
+logfile:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ *************************************************
+ * xsim warning: "rerun"
+ *
+ * Exercise properties may have changed. Rerun to get them synchronized.
+ *************************************************
+\end{sourcecode}
+So just check the logfile regularly (which you should be doing anyway) and
+keep your eyes open.
+
+\subsection{\dots Resolve Getting Repeatedly Wrong Exercise Properties or
+ Wrong Exercise Lists?}\label{sec:resolve-getting}
+\xsim\ writes a lot of stuff to the auxfile for re-using information on
+subsequent compilations. If you add exercises, change properties \etc\ it
+might happen that wrong information is staying in the auxfile and is wrongly
+used by \xsim. In such cases deleting the auxfile and doing a few fresh
+compilations may resolve your problems.
+
+Sometimes the \emph{existence of exercise or solution files from earlier
+ compilations} may lead to wrong lists of exercises or solutions. In such
+cases it can be useful to delete all those files and doing a fresh
+compilation. It may be helpful to use a subfolder for those exernal files
+which will make deleting them a little bit easier. (Don't forget to both
+create the subfolder and set \option{path} accordingly then.)
+
+Using the \option{clear-aux} option might help to reduce erroneous exercises.
+
+\subsection{\dots Resolve Strange Errors After Updating?}
+\xsim\ writes a lot of stuff to the auxfile. An update may well change how
+this is done so deleting the auxfile and doing a few fresh compilations may
+resolve your problems.
+
+\subsection{\code{! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [text input levels=15].}
+ Why?}
+Did you try to use an exercise or solution in a macro of some sort? This
+generally will fail\footnote{The reasons are not entirely clear to me.}. But
+there should never be the need to hide the environments inside of a macro,
+anyway.
+
+\subsection{\code{Runaway argument? !File ended while scanning use of \^\^M.} Why?}
+Did you try to use an exercise or solution in a macro of some sort? This
+generally will fail. But there should never be the need to hide the
+environments inside of a macro, anyway.
+
+\subsection{\dots Put a Star (or Another Symbol) in Headings of Exercises That
+ Are Special?}
+
+The code below shows one possible modification of an exercise template which
+allows to easily create bonus exercises:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ % preamble:
+ \usepackage{amsymb}
+ % declare boolean property:
+ \DeclareExerciseProperty*{bonus}
+ \DeclareExerciseEnvironmentTemplate{bonus}
+ {%
+ \subsection*
+ {%
+ % test for boolean property and insert star symbol if true:
+ \IfExerciseBooleanPropertyT{bonus}{\llap{$\bigstar$ }Bonus }%
+ \XSIMmixedcase{\GetExerciseName}\nobreakspace
+ \GetExerciseProperty{counter}%
+ \IfInsideSolutionF
+ {%
+ \IfExercisePropertySetT{subtitle}
+ { {\normalfont\itshape\GetExerciseProperty{subtitle}}}%
+ }%
+ }
+ \GetExercisePropertyT{points}
+ {%
+ \marginpar
+ {%
+ \IfInsideSolutionF{\rule{1.2cm}{1pt}\slash}%
+ \PropertyValue
+ \GetExercisePropertyT{bonus-points}
+ {\nobreakspace(+\PropertyValue)}%
+ \nobreakspace\XSIMtranslate{point-abbr}%
+ }%
+ }%
+ }
+ {}
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+The usage is now as follows:
+\begin{example}
+ \xsimsetup{exercise/template = bonus}
+ % set the boolean property to true
+ \begin{exercise}[bonus]
+ A bonus question.
+ \end{exercise}
+\end{example}
+
+\subsection{\dots Create and Use \xsim\ Style Files?}
+
+\xsim\ offers you the possibility to create own \emph{style files}. Let's say
+you want to have a style called \code{math-exam}. Then you need to save all
+necessary definitions in a file called:
+\begin{center}
+ \code{xsim.math-exam.code.tex}
+\end{center}
+The first command in the file should be \cs{xsimstyle}\Marg{math-exam}. This
+file can now be loaded into your document using
+\cs{loadxsimstyle}\Marg{math-exam}:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \documentclass[DIV=18,parskip=half]{scrartcl}
+ \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
+ \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
+
+ \usepackage[clear-aux]{xsim}
+ \loadxsimstyle{math-exam}
+
+ \title{Math Exam \#3}
+ \date{2017-03-28}
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+In this style file stuff like template and property definitions should
+happen. This is more or less a convenient way to
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item keep the preamble \enquote{clean} and
+ \item define re-usable styles without the need of copying the document
+ preamble to another document.
+\end{itemize}
+A style file is like a package or class file, \ie, \code{@} has category
+code~11 (letter).
+
+The formal description of the commands:
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{xsimstyle}[\sarg\marg{style name}]
+ The first command in a \xsim\ style file called \code{xsim.\meta{style
+ name}.code.tex} which defines the \xsim\ style \meta{style name}. The
+ starred version activates expl3 syntax\footnote{Those users who want this
+ will know what it means. If you don't know what it means you will not
+ need it.}.
+ \command{loadxsimstyle}[\marg{csv list of style names}]
+ Load one or more styles into the document.
+\end{commands}
+
+\begin{bewareofthedog}
+ At the moment this mechanism offers no advantages over creating a custom
+ package or simply \cs*{input}ing a file. Future versions might provide
+ additional features.

+\subsection{\dots Print All Solutions Grouped by Section?}
+Here is an idea how to get a list of all solutions grouped by the section the
+corresponding exercises are appearing in.
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ % preamble:
+ % \usepackage{etoolbox}
+ % \newcounter{sections}
+
+ % document:
+ \setcounter{sections}{1}
+ \whileboolexpr
+ { test {\ifnumless{\value{sections}}{\value{section}+1}} }
+ {
+ \printsolutions[section=\value{sections},headings-template=per-section]
+ \stepcounter{sections}
+ }
+\end{sourcecode}
+For this manual we then get the following list\footnote{Taking care of the
+ fact that we're in the appendix now which means we can't use
+ \cs*{value}\Marg{section}. Therefore this manual does
+ \cs*{edef}\cs*{lastsection}\Marg{\cs*{arabic}\Marg{section}} right before
+ \cs*{appendix}}.
+
+\newcounter{sections}
+\setcounter{sections}{1}
+\whileboolexpr
+ { test {\ifnumless{\value{sections}}{\lastsection+1}} }
+ {
+ \printsolutions[section=\value{sections},headings-template=per-section]
+ \stepcounter{sections}
+ }

+\section{The \pkg*{xsimverb} package}\label{sec:xsimverb-package}
+\xsim\ comes bundled with another package called \pkg{xsimverb}. This package
+loads a very small subset of \xsim\ which allows to create environments which
+write their contents verbatim to external files. It provides the following
+commands (which of course are also available in \xsim, too):
+
+\begin{commands}
+ \command{XSIMfilewritestart}[\sarg\marg{file name}]
+ Start writing to the file named \meta{file name}. This should be the
+ \emph{last} command in the \emph{begin} definition of an environment. If
+ is is used in an environment with arguments where the \emph{last} argument
+ is optional you should check if the optional argument is given and use
+ the starred version if the test is negative. This is demonstrated in an
+ example below using \pkg{xparse}'s \cs{NewDocumentEnvironment}. \emph{If
+ you want an environment with only an optional argument you \emph{should}
+ use \pkg{xparse}'s commands to define it. Due to the way how
+ \cs*{newenvironment} scans for optional arguments you'll otherwise may
+ end up with leading spaces gobbled from the first line in your
+ environment.}
+ \command{XSIMfilewritestop}
+ Stop writing to the file. This should be the \emph{first} command in the
+ \emph{end} definition of an environment.
+ \command{XSIMsetfilebegin}[\marg{code}]
+ This command can be used to write something to the external file
+ \emph{before} the environment contents. Must be set before
+ \cs{XSIMfilewritestart} in the \emph{begin} definition.
+ \command{XSIMsetfileend}[\marg{code}]
+ This command can be used to write something to the external file
+ \emph{after} the environment contents. Must be set before
+ \cs{XSIMfilewritestart} in the \emph{begin} definition.
+ \command{XSIMgobblechars}[\marg{integer}]
+ Determines how many characters are cut off of the beginning of each line
+ of the environment body before it is written to the file. The default
+ value is~$0$.
+\end{commands}
+
+An example of how to use those commands:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \documentclass{article}
+ \usepackage{xsimverb,listings}
+
+ \makeatletter
+ \NewDocumentEnvironment{example}{o}
+ {%
+ \XSIMsetfilebegin{\@percentchar\space file `\jobname.tmp'}%
+ \XSIMsetfileend{\@percentchar\space bye bye}%
+ \IfNoValueTF{#1}
+ {\XSIMfilewritestart*{\jobname.tmp}}
+ {\XSIMfilewritestart{\jobname.tmp}}%
+ }
+ {%
+ \XSIMfilewritestop
+ \lstinputlisting[language={[LaTeX]TeX}]{\jobname.tmp}%
+ \input{\jobname.tmp}
+ }
+ \makeatother
+
+ \begin{document}
+
+ \begin{example}
+ bla bla \LaTeX
+ \end{example}
+
+ \end{document}
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+The \code{tmp} file produced by the above example will contain the following
+three lines (if the file itself was called \code{test.tex}):
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ % file `test.tmp'
+ bla bla \LaTeX
+ % bye bye
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+\section{All Exercise Examples}
+
+\begin{bewareofthedog}
+ You will notice that some exercises from
+ section~\vref{sec:template-examples} look differently in this section. That
+ is because all exercises of a type use the template that's \emph{currently
+ active}. If you want exercises with a different look you should use
+ different exercises types.
+\end{bewareofthedog}
+
+The following list is created with this code:
+\begin{sourcecode}
+ \xsimsetup{exercise/template = bonus}
+ \printcollection[headings]{all exercises}
+\end{sourcecode}
+
+\xsimsetup{exercise/template = bonus}
+\printcollection[headings]{all exercises}
