% Version History
% v1.0   Initial version.
% v1.0.1 Added siunitx to required packages.
% v1.0.2 Modified header generation to translate short teaching period strings
%        into long equivalents (e.g., "S1" => "Semester One").
% v1.0.3 Replaced deprecated ifpdf and ifxetex with iftex.

%
% Various setup macros to enable on-the-fly option changing.
% These are particularly necessary for paper detail options (such as
% papertitle) that may contain spaces. From the kvoptions documentation:
%
% ==================================================
%	* Spaces are removed, regardless where:
%		\documentclass[box=0 0 400 600]{article}
%	  Now each package will see box=00400600 as global option.
%
%	* In the previous case also braces would not help:
%		\documentclass[box={0 0 400 600}]{article}
%	  The result is an error message:
%		! LaTeX Error: Missing \begin{document}.
%
%	* The requirements on robustness are extremly high. LATEX expands the
%	  option. All that will not work as environment name will break also
%	  as option. Even a \relax will generate an error message:
%		! Missing \endcsname inserted.
%	  Of course, LATEX does not use its protecting mechanisms. On contrary
%	  \protect itself will cause errors.
% ==================================================
%
% The upshot is that in the \documentclass, spaces are eaten, but we can't use
% {} or macros like \space or "\ " to escape them. The only thing that does
% work is:
%
%	papertitle=some\csname space\endcsname name
%
% which is particularly ugly. A better solution is to follow the hyperref
% model and have a "setup" macro that sets these options AFTER the
% \documentclass.
%
% These also call \hypersetup to ensure that the PDF metadata match.
