Now you have it.
i have also tried to figure why koma-script should be superiour to the standard latex classes. this seems not to be explained in brief anywhere?
koma-script is superior because you can adjust nearly everything. You need for example the LaTeX-package "caption" to set the caption font and style - this can be omitted because koma-script allows you to do the same. koma-script supports also specialities like the setting of the dots in the section numbering "1.2.3 Test" or "1.2.3. Test". It offers many commands to generate a suitable title page, headlines chapter layout, indices, the TOC etc. Many of these features aren't available with the standard classes. And I forgot to mention that the documentation is excellent.
