Module primitives 

Methods for PrimitiveCommands and for registering new ones

Structs

PRIMITIVES

The global PrimitiveInterner.

PrimitiveCommands

A store for all primitive commands.

PrimitiveIdentifier

A Copy identifier for a primitive command. Small and fast to compare.

PrimitiveInterner

We always intern the names for primitive commands/macros, for efficiency; in particular for equality checks. Uses u16 internally, i.e. allowing for up to 65536 primitives.

Functions

register_assignment

Creates a new primitive assignment command.

register_box

Creates a new primitive command that yields a box and registers it with the engine.

register_conditional

Creates a new conditional primitive and registers it with the engine.

register_dim

Creates a new primitive command that yields (and optionally assigns) a dimension value and registers it with the engine.

register_expandable

Creates a new expandable primitive and registers it with the engine.

register_font

Creates a new primitive command that yields (and optionally assigns) a font value and registers it with the engine.

register_int

Creates a new primitive command that yields (and optionally assigns) an integer value and registers it with the engine.

register_muskip

Creates a new primitive command that yields (and optionally assigns) a muskip value and registers it with the engine.

register_primitive_dim

Creates a new primitive named dimension and registers it with the engine.

register_primitive_int

Creates a new primitive named integer value and registers it with the engine.

register_primitive_muskip

Creates a new primitive named skip and registers it with the engine.

register_primitive_skip

Creates a new primitive named skip and registers it with the engine.

register_primitive_toks

Creates a new primitive named token register and registers it with the engine.

register_simple_expandable

Creates a new simple expandable primitive (which does not produce new tokens) and registers it with the engine.

register_skip

Creates a new primitive command that yields (and optionally assigns) a skip value and registers it with the engine.

register_unexpandable

Creates a new unexpandable primitive and registers it with the engine.

register_whatsit

Creates a new “Whatsit” primitive and registers it with the engine.
