<tmdoc-title|Fundamental tree modification routines>
|
|
|
|
From an internal point of view, all modifications to the <TeXmacs> edit
|
|
tree are decomposed into atomic modifications of eight different types. In
|
|
this section, we describe the <value|scheme> interface to these fundamental
|
|
modification routines. Even though it is usually more convenient to use
|
|
higher level modification routines, as described in the <hlink|next
|
|
section|edit-modify.en.tm>, the fundamental tree modification routines may
|
|
occasionally be useful as well.
|
|
|
|
It should be emphasized that the fundamental tree modification routines are
|
|
<em|not> checked for their correctness. It is the responsability of the
|
|
user to verify that the operations are valid and that they lead to a
|
|
correct new edit tree. Although it is sometimes possible to leave the edit
|
|
tree in a temporarily incorrect or ``unsimplified'' state (for instance, by
|
|
allowing subtrees of the form <group|<scm|(concat "")>>), this practice is
|
|
not generally recommended, and may lead to severe bugs.

|
|
On input, we have a <value|scheme> variable <scm-arg|var> of type
|
|
<verbatim|tree> and <scm-arg|new-value> of type <verbatim|content>. The
|
|
macro replaces the tree by <scm-arg|new-value> and updates <scm-arg|var>
|
|
accordingly. The new tree value of <scm-arg|var> is returned.

|
|
The first parameter <scm-arg|var> is a <value|scheme> variable of type
|
|
<verbatim|tree>. If <scm-arg|var> is a compound tree, then <scm-arg|ins>
|
|
should be a list <with|mode|math|u<rsub|0>,\<ldots\>,u<rsub|l-1>> of new
|
|
children of type <verbatim|content>. In that case, the routine inserts
|
|
<with|mode|math|u<rsub|0>,\<ldots\>,u<rsub|l-1>> into the children of
|
|
<scm-arg|var>, at position<nbsp><scm-arg|pos> (see figure
|
|
<reference|insert-remove-fig>). If <scm-arg|var> is a string tree, then
|
|
<scm-arg|ins> should be of string content type, and the string
|
|
<scm-arg|ins> is inserted into <scm-arg|var> at
|
|
position<nbsp><scm-arg|pos>. The variable <scm-arg|var> is updated with
|
|
the result of the insertion and the result is returned.

The first parameter <scm-arg|var> is a <value|scheme> variable of type

|
|
<|explain>
|
|
The first parameter <scm-arg|var> is a <value|scheme> variable of type
|
|
<verbatim|tree>. The macro is used to split the child <with|mode|math|u>
|
|
of <scm-arg|var> at position <scm-arg|pos> into two parts. If
|
|
<with|mode|math|u> is a compound tree, then the first part consists of
|
|
the first <scm-arg|at> children and the second part of the remaining
|
|
ones. Both parts carry the same label as <with|mode|math|u> and
|
|
<with|mode|math|u> is replaced by the two parts inside <scm-arg|var> (see
|
|
figure <reference|split-join-fig>). If <with|mode|math|u> is string tree,
|
|
then it is rather split into two strings at position <scm-arg|at>. The
|
|
variable <scm-arg|var> is updated with the result of the split command
|
|
and the result is returned.

The first parameter <scm-arg|var> is a <value|scheme> variable of type

of <scm-arg|var> at position <scm-arg|pos> with the child

|
<with|mode|math|v> at position <scm-arg|pos>+1. If <with|mode|math|u> and
|
|
<with|mode|math|v> are trees, then they are removed from <scm-arg|var>
|
|
and replaced by a single tree which has the same label as
|
|
<with|mode|math|u> and whose children are those of <with|mode|math|u>,
|
|
followed by the children of <with|mode|math|v> (see figure
|

<reference|split-join-fig>). If <with|mode|math|u> and <with|mode|math|v>
|

are strings, then they are replaced by their concatenation. The variable

<scm-arg|var> is updated with the result of the join command and the

|
|
Each of the macros <scm-macro|tree-assign!>, <scm-macro|tree-insert!>,
|
|
<abbr|etc.> has a functional counterpart
|
|
<verbatim|<scm-fun|tree-assign>>, <verbatim|<scm-fun|tree-insert>>, etc.
|
|
The first parameter of these counterparts can be an arbitrary
|
|
``l-<no-break>value'' and does not have to be a scheme variable. However,
|
|
in the case when a <value|scheme> variable is passed as the first
|
|
parameter, these variants do not necessarily update its contents with the
|
|
return<nbsp>value.
