\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.
