For the purpose of my Master Thesis I put a LaTeX class Scriptum.cls together. A sample document made using this class can be downloaded here and the source code is also available as a tutorial. This PDF document is also a documentation to the LaTeX class.
% Permission is granted to copy all or part of the template class for personal, educational,
% non-commerical use off-line as long as the copyright message

% in Prague and at the Johannes Kepler University in Linz.
