KOMA-Script and Friends

Information about the KOMA-Script LaTeX collection, related packages and the KOMA-Script author.

The LaTeX Package “scrdate”

The scrdate package is a spin-off of KOMA-Script and was part of that collection up to version 3.49.2 of scrdate and KOMA-Script. It was separated from KOMA-Script because it tended to be overlooked within the collection and works very well on its own.

Originally, the scrdate package only allowed users to display the name of the current day, with support for multiple languages. It now also offers various functions for determining the day of the week for any given date.

The package is hosted on Codeberg. For more information, see the CTAN catalog entry.
