Theorem environments

[Michael Schmitt]

Hello,

some time ago, I have extended class "Article (KomaScript)" to handle theorems and definitions (see attachment). The patch works fine for private use but it is limited and I don't really understand each and every detail.

But as it seems to be very easy to add new theorem environments to an existing TeX class, I am wondering whether we can define a set of "standard" theorem environments that are included in many more classes in generic way. Is that possible?

Michael
