Version 1.1:
- Added the 'matching' environment
- Continuous numbering of questions across sections is now
possible.
- Removed the following environments:
= shortanswer*
= fillin*
= fixed*
= multiplechoice*
= truefalse*
(the functionality provided by these environments can now
be obtained in other ways)
- Changed the syntax of the standard sections. The optional
argument now can be used to set a number of parameters
customizing that section. These parameters are described
at length in the documentation. (Previously, it specified
the section title.)
- The format of the section number and identifier can now be
easily customized.
- Cross-referencing works.
- The 'block' environment now accepts an optional argument.
Right now, the only optional argument is "questions", which
specifies the number of questions in the block, and defines
two new commands (\thefirst and \thelast) which refer to the
range of questions which fall within that block.
- The \pagebreak command can now be used to force pagebreaks
before sections and questions.
- The \BreakPageOnVersion command can be used to introduce
pagebreaks before a question or section only on particular
versions of the test.
- For many of the standard question types, the command \ShortKey
will produce a "shortened" answer key that contains only the
answers (no question or section introduction text), hence saving
paper.
- A not-so-terribly-ugly hack has been provided in order to facilitate
the typesetting of any TeX code requiring catcode changes.
- Fixed a bug that prevented the 'block' environment from
working correctly inside some of the sections.
- The TeX source has been simplified. It's still not pretty,
but it should be a lot easier to understand.
- Probably some other stuff that I've forgotten...
Version 1.02:
- Fixed a bug that broke the cedilla (\c) command.
- Added the following environments:
= frontmatter = shortanswer*
= endmatter = fillin*
= examtop = fixed*
= exampreface = multiplechoice*
= examclosing = truefalse*
= keytop
= keypreface
= keyclosing
= block
- Added the following commands:
= \word
= \examname
= \key
= \examvspace
= \examvspace*
= \examhspace
= \examhspace*
= \keyvspace
= \keyvspace*
= \keyhspace
= \keyhspace*
- Eliminated the \instructions command for inserting
instructions after the section header. The section
environments are now "smart" enough to recognize
when instructions appear.
- The \exam command has been redefined. The old \exam
command, used for specifying the name of the exam, has
been replaced by \examname.
- Added the following user-customizable lengths:
= \beforesectsep = \beforeinstsep
= \aftersectsep = \afterinstsep
- Every question is now surrounded by \@beforequestionhook and
\@endquestionhook, in case the user wants to use them for
anything.
