54 % Documentation {{{
55 % 1. Question: Who calls the pagebuilder and \output?
56 % Answer: Only \par and $$ (as far as I have read the TeXbook)
58 % 2. Question: So, all together: What is to be done?
59 % Answer: We have to simulate the work of the linebuilder that makes
60 % paragraphs and math into lines in order to find out, what value \prevgraf
61 % might have at a pagepreak. Then, we change the \hsize and \vsize at the
62 % pagepreak and inform PyX about the value of \prevgraf.
64 % 3. Question: When is \prevgraf advanced?
65 % Answer: At every line by 1 and at every display math by 3
67 % 4. Question: How can we hook into the pagebuilding mechanism to find out
68 % about lines and displays?
69 % Answer: We get into the pagebuilder that splits vertical lists into pages
70 % if we enforce a penalty of less than -10000. There are three built-in
71 % hooks: \interlinepenalty
72 % \predisplaypenalty
73 % \postdisplaypenalty
74 % These are set to values less than -10000 by wrapping \par and $$, the
75 % ones who call the pagebuilder and, therefore, \output
77 % Unfortunately, we get only "breaks", but we are interested in lines. At
78 % each list, we have one break less than lines. So, we have to add another
79 % call of \output at the end of a paragraph. This is done by an explicit
80 % \penalty
81 % A display math succeeding some text also calls the pagebuilder. We have
82 % to add another line in such situations. This is done in the output
83 % routine while processing \predisplaypenalty.
85 % 5. Question: Why are there so many \ifnum s in the output routine?
86 % Answer: As explained avove, we have to do different things at different
87 % positions of our text. \interlinepenalty and the \penalty for paragraph
88 % endings have to add a line. \postdisplaypenalty has to add the display
89 % (advances \prevgraf by 3), while \predisplaypenalty may still reside on
90 % the previous page, while the display math has moved to the next one.
91 % Therefore, it does not contribute to the \prevgraf. Nevertheless, if
92 % there was some text before the display math in the same paragraph, we
93 % still have to add the last line of text!
95 % This is the reason for the whole \outputtype business:
96 % We have to show a \prevgraf value different to \myprevgraf at a situation
97 % where an \interlinepenalty is followed by a \predisplaypenalty which is
98 % followed by a pagebreak. The display is on the next page.
99 % The same can -- of course -- also occur with a \predisplaypenalty
100 % following a \penalty caused by \par
102 % 6. Question: What the hell does \leastcost do?
103 % Answer: This is a tricky point. We hooked into the pagebuilding mechanism
104 % by changing penalties. In this case, TeX thinks, there is a very good
105 % pagebreak and calls \output. But \output removes the strongly negative
106 % penalty we added. Now, TeX has to reconsider the pagebreak and may come
107 % to the result that some of the lines that have appeared as perfect
108 % pagebreaks are not so perfect...
109 % Therefore, before we re-inject the whole vertical list and remove the
110 % negative penalty by saying
111 % \unvbox255 \advance\outputpenalty by XXXXXX \penalty\outputpenalty
112 % we have to know in advance, what the pagebuilder will think of the
113 % pagebreak in the next run. See the TeXbook, p. 111 for the correct
114 % formula.
116 % This is the reason for \showprevgraf. We have two counters:
117 % - \myprevgraf counts real lines and displays. This keeps us up-to-date
118 % with the paragraph all the time
119 % - \showprevgraf only counts what will be visible on the current page. It
120 % will be reset to \myprevgraf after the pagebreak.
122 % 7. Question: What do you do to \deadcycles?
123 % Answer: \deadcycles is advanced every time an \output routine has
124 % re-inserted \box255 into the recent contributions. We have to do this for
125 % every line and display math. Therefore, we are restricted to
126 % \maxdeadcycles lines or displays :-(
127 % To avoid this, we cheat the counting of deadcycles and re-advance
128 % \deadcycles by -1. Please, be careful with this hack!
