Chapter/Appendix in TOC
Danie Els
and KOMA script) is that they do not have the abbility to format the TOC
simmilar to the AMS classes:
Chapter 1 First chapter
1.1 First section
Appendix A First appendix
A.1 .....
You can tweak tocloft/memoir but the difference in width of Chapter and
Appendix ('Hoofstuk' and 'Bylae' in Afrikaans) causes a problem. The
following example uses a new TOC item, \l@appendix, to obtain the
desired result. This is much simpler than the elaborate AMS procedures
of writing the widths to a file and then reading it back.
I hope someone finds it usefull

Some nice code by Danie Els but if you use memoir or tocloft you can get
away with a lot less code.
% \documentclass[...]{report/book} \usepackage{tocloft}
% \documentclass[...]{memoir}
%% in the preamble, this handles the Chapter entries
\renewcommand*{\cftchappresnum}{\chaptername\space}
\setlength{\cftchapnumwidth}{6em} % change length to suit
%% this will handle the Appendix entries
\DeclareRobustCommand{\changetoapp}{%
\renewcommand*{\cftchappresnum}{\apendixname\space}%
\setlength{\cftchapnumwidth}{7em}}
%% modify the \appendix macro to add code to the ToC
\let\oldappendix\appendix
\renewcommand*{\appendix}{\oldappendix
\addtocontents{toc}{\changetoapp}}
...
\begin{document}
...
\chapter{A chapter}
...
\appendix
\chapter{An appendix}
...

If you use the \include command to include a chapter, the
\addtocontents ends up after the include.
\appendix
\include{App-A}
I'm not sure if this is a bug or a feature of LaTeX, but it is well
known. That's the reason why I don't use information written to the
toc. To overcome this, the \appendix must be inside the included file,
and that is not in the spirit of general markup.
