% ==========================================================================
%
% The macros use the term `chapter' for what in the book is called
% a `section', `section' for the book's `subsection', etc.  For purposes of
% defining macros it's convenient to think of the book as divided into
% chapters, but because of the nonsequential nature of the book we don't
% want to tell the readers that they are reading chapters.


% An embedded file should end with \byebye.
% 
\begingroup
\ifx \macsin\relax
   % In frontm.tex, we do \input macros several times, and we still want
   % the \byebye at the end to end the job.
   % So we \input inside a group in frontm, and make the assignment to
   % \endinput local.
