These macros remove a number of +arguments after them; a feature regulary used inside other +macros. This includes gobble macros for optional arguments. + +The LaTeX package 'gobble-user' provides these macros to the +user level, i.e. using names without '@', so that these can be +used without \makeatletter and \makeatother. + +The same macros are provided inside .tex files for use with +plain-TeX or other TeX formats. However, the gobble macros +for optional macros require \@ifnextchar to be defined. + |
