\maketitle

\begin{abstract}
  This is a ready-to-use package providing symbols of mathematical
  categories with automatic indexing.

  It is certainly plausible that you prefer to name your categories slightly
  differently that the author.
\end{abstract}

\begin{documentation}

\section{General notice}

This package is based on the \pkg{mkessler-symbindex} package.
We thus use \pkg{imakeindex} to generate the index file.

\section{Functionality}

\begin{function}{\category}
  \begin{syntax}
    \cs{category}\marg{category}
  \end{syntax}

  Makes the given argument \meta{category} behave like a math operator
  and prints its name in bold.

  This is just to ensure a unified style for printing categories,
  if you don't like it, redefine this macro.
\end{function}

\begin{function}{\DeclareCategory}
  \begin{syntax}
    \cs{DeclareCategory}\oarg{key=value list}\marg{category}
  \end{syntax}

  Has the same syntax as \cs{DeclareSymbol} from the \pkg{mkessler-symbindex} package,
  but adds the key \texttt{group = categories}.
\end{function}

\begin{function}{\DeclareSimpleCategory}
  \begin{syntax}
    \cs{DeclareSimpleCategory}\oarg{key=value list}\marg{category}\oarg{description}
  \end{syntax}

  Declares a \enquote{simple} category, i.e.~the category \cs{\meta{category}}
  is declared and will expand to \enquote{\cs{category}\marg{category}}
  when expanded.

  The optional \meta{description} is shown in the index when present.
\end{function}

\begin{function}{\MakeCategoryIndex}
  Prints the index of categories.
\end{function}

\section{Language integration}

This package uses \pkg{translator} to translate the package descriptions.
Currently, only English and German are supported.

\section{Default categories}

The package also provides default categories.
These are shown in \autoref{tab:provided-categories}.

You can view their appearance in the index and their descriptions in the
index of this documentation.
Unfortunately, the index is not (yet) compatible with the \texttt{l3doc} class
which is used for this documentation, so ignore everything before the
\enquote{@} characters.
