[description]
[para]
The application described by this document, [syscmd tcldocstrip], is a
relative of [syscmd docstrip], a simple literate programming tool for
LaTeX.
[para]
[syscmd tcldocstrip] is based upon the package [package docstrip].
[subsection {USE CASES}]
[syscmd tcldocstrip] was written with the following three use cases in
mind.
[para]
[list_begin enumerated]
[enum]
Conversion of a single input file according to the listed guards into
the stripped output. This handles the most simple case of a set of
guards specifying a single document found in a single input file.
[enum]
Stitching, or the assembly of an output from several sets of guards,
in a specific order, and possibly from different files. This is the
second common case. One document spread over several inputs, and/or
spread over different guard sets.
[enum]
Extraction and listing of all the unique guard expressions and guards
used within a document to help a person which did not author the
document in question in familiarizing itself with it.
[list_end]
[subsection {COMMAND LINE}]
[list_begin definitions]
[call [cmd tcldocstrip] [arg output] [opt options] [arg input] [opt [arg guards]]]
This is the form for use case [lb]1[rb]. It converts the [arg input]
file according to the specified [arg guards] and options. The result
is written to the named [arg output] file.
Usage of the string [const "-"] as the name of the output signals that
the result should be written to [const stdout]. The guards are
document-specific and have to be known to the caller. The
[arg options] will be explained later, in section [sectref OPTIONS].
[list_begin arguments]
[arg_def path output in]
This argument specifies where to write the generated document. It can
be the path to a file or directory, or [const -].
The last value causes the application to write the generated
documented to [const stdout].
[para]
If the [arg output] does not exist then [lb]file dirname $output[rb]
has to exist and must be a writable directory.
[arg_def path inputfile in]
This argument specifies the path to the file to process. It has to
exist, must be readable, and written in [term docstrip] format.
[list_end]
[para]
[call [cmd tcldocstrip] [opt options] [arg output] ([opt options] [arg input] [arg guards])...]
This is the form for use case [lb]2[rb]. It differs from the form for
use case [lb]1[rb] by the possibility of having options before the
output file, which apply in general, and specifying more than one
inputfile, each with its own set of input specific options and guards.
[para]
It extracts data from the various [arg input] files, according to the
specified [arg options] and [arg guards], and writes the result to the
given [arg output], in the order of their specification on the command
line. Options specified before the output are global settings, whereas
the options specified before each input are valid only just for this
input file. Unspecified values are taken from the global settings, or
defaults. As for form [lb]1[rb] using the string [const "-"] as output
causes the application to write to stdout.
Using the string [const "."] for an input file signals that the last
input file should be used again. This enables the assembly of the
output from one input file using multiple and different sets of
guards, without having to specify the full name of the file every
time.
[call [cmd tcldocstrip] [option -guards] [arg input]]
This is the form for use case [lb]3[rb].
It determines the guards, and unique guard expressions used within the
provided [arg input] document. The found strings are written to
stdout, one string per line.
[list_end]
[subsection OPTIONS]
This section describes all the options available to the user of the
application, with the exception of the option [option -guards]. This
option was described already, in section [sectref {COMMAND LINE}].
[para]
[list_begin options]
[opt_def -metaprefix string]
This option is inherited from the command [cmd docstrip::extract]
provided by the package [package docstrip].
[para]
It specifies the string by which the '%%' prefix of a metacomment line
will be replaced. Defaults to '%%'. For Tcl code this would typically
be '#'.
[opt_def -onerror mode]
This option is inherited from the command [cmd docstrip::extract]
provided by the package [package docstrip].
[para]
It controls what will be done when a format error in the [arg text]
being processed is detected. The settings are:
[list_begin definitions]
[def [const ignore]]
Just ignore the error; continue as if nothing happened.
[def [const puts]]
Write an error message to [const stderr], then continue processing.
[def [const throw]]
Throw an error. [var ::errorCode] is set to a list whose first element
is [const DOCSTRIP], second element is the type of error, and third
element is the line number where the error is detected. This is the
default.
[list_end]
[opt_def -trimlines bool]
This option is inherited from the command [cmd docstrip::extract]
provided by the package [package docstrip].
[para]
Controls whether [emph spaces] at the end of a line should be trimmed
away before the line is processed. Defaults to [const true].
[opt_def -preamble text]
[opt_def -postamble text]
[opt_def -nopreamble]
[opt_def -nopostamble]
The -no*amble options deactivate file pre- and postambles altogether,
whereas the -*amble options specify the [emph user] part of the file
pre- and postambles. This part can be empty, in that case only the
standard parts are shown. This is the default.
[para]
Preambles, when active, are written before the actual content of a
generated file. In the same manner postambles are, when active,
written after the actual content of a generated file.
