<span id="index-parser"></span>
<p>The parser has a number of variables that affect its internal operation.
These variables are generally documented in the manual alongside the code that
they affect.
</p>
<p>In addition, there are three non-specific parser customization functions.
<code>add_input_event_hook</code> can be used to schedule a user function for
periodic evaluation. <code>remove_input_event_hook</code> will stop a user function
from being evaluated periodically.
</p>
<span id="XREFadd_005finput_005fevent_005fhook"></span><dl>
<dt id="index-add_005finput_005fevent_005fhook">: <em><var>id</var> =</em> <strong>add_input_event_hook</strong> <em>(<var>fcn</var>)</em></dt>
<dt id="index-add_005finput_005fevent_005fhook-1">: <em><var>id</var> =</em> <strong>add_input_event_hook</strong> <em>(<var>fcn</var>, <var>data</var>)</em></dt>
<dd><p>Add the named function or function handle <var>fcn</var> to the list of functions
to call periodically when Octave is waiting for input.
</p>
<p>The function should have the form
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example"><var>fcn</var> (<var>data</var>)
</pre></div>
<p>If <var>data</var> is omitted, Octave calls the function without any arguments.
</p>
<p>The returned identifier may be used to remove the function handle from the
list of input hook functions.
</p>
<p><strong>See also:</strong> <a href="#XREFremove_005finput_005fevent_005fhook">remove_input_event_hook</a>.
</p></dd></dl>
<span id="XREFremove_005finput_005fevent_005fhook"></span><dl>
<dt id="index-remove_005finput_005fevent_005fhook">: <em></em> <strong>remove_input_event_hook</strong> <em>(<var>name</var>)</em></dt>
<dt id="index-remove_005finput_005fevent_005fhook-1">: <em></em> <strong>remove_input_event_hook</strong> <em>(<var>fcn_id</var>)</em></dt>
<dd><p>Remove the named function or function handle with the given identifier
from the list of functions to call periodically when Octave is waiting
for input.
</p>
<p><strong>See also:</strong> <a href="#XREFadd_005finput_005fevent_005fhook">add_input_event_hook</a>.
</p></dd></dl>
<p>Finally, when the parser cannot identify an input token it calls a particular
function to handle this. By default, this is the internal function
<code>"__unimplemented__"</code> which makes suggestions about possible Octave
substitutes for <small>MATLAB</small> functions.
</p>
<span id="XREFmissing_005ffunction_005fhook"></span><dl>
<dt id="index-missing_005ffunction_005fhook">: <em><var>val</var> =</em> <strong>missing_function_hook</strong> <em>()</em></dt>
<dt id="index-missing_005ffunction_005fhook-1">: <em><var>old_val</var> =</em> <strong>missing_function_hook</strong> <em>(<var>new_val</var>)</em></dt>
<dt id="index-missing_005ffunction_005fhook-2">: <em></em> <strong>missing_function_hook</strong> <em>(<var>new_val</var>, "local")</em></dt>
<dd><p>Query or set the internal variable that specifies the function to call
to provide extra information when an unknown identifier is referenced.
</p>
<p>When called from inside a function with the <code>"local"</code> option, the
variable is changed locally for the function and any subroutines it calls.
The original variable value is restored when exiting the function.
