%
% Whilst there is a reasonable amount of code overlap between backends,
% it is much clearer to have the blocks more-or-less separated than run
% in together and DocStripped out in parts. As such, most of the following
% is set up on a per-backend basis, though there is some common code (again
% given in blocks not interspersed with other material).
%
% All the file identifiers are up-front so that they come out in the right
% place in the files.

% The order of the backend code here is such that we get somewhat logical
% outcomes in terms of code sharing whilst keeping things readable. (Trying to
% mix all of the code by concept is almost unmanageable.) The key parts which
% are shared are
% \begin{itemize}
%   \item Color support is either \texttt{dvips}-like or \LuaTeX{}/pdfTeX{}-like.
%   \item \LuaTeX{}/pdfTeX{} and \texttt{dvipdfmx}/\XeTeX{} share drawing routines.
%   \item \XeTeX{} is the same as \texttt{dvipdfmx} other than image size
%     extraction so takes most of the same code.
% \end{itemize}

%  The one shared function for all backends is access to the basic
%  \tn{special} primitive: it has slightly odd expansion behaviour
%  so a wrapper is provided.

%
% \begin{macro}{\__kernel_backend_first_shipout:n}
%   We need to write at first shipout in a few places. As we want to use the

%
% \subsection{\texttt{dvips} backend}
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
%<*dvips>
%    \end{macrocode}
%
% \begin{macro}
%   {\__kernel_backend_literal_postscript:n, \__kernel_backend_literal_postscript:x}
%   Literal PostScript can be included using a few low-level formats. Here,
%   we use the form with no positioning: this is overall more convenient as
%   a wrapper. Note that this does require that where position is important,
%   an appropriate wrapper is included.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\cs_new_protected:Npn \__kernel_backend_literal_postscript:n #1
  { \__kernel_backend_literal:n { ps:: #1 } }
\cs_generate_variant:Nn \__kernel_backend_literal_postscript:n { x }
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
% \begin{macro}{\__kernel_backend_postscript:n, \__kernel_backend_postscript:x}
%   PostScript data that does have positioning, and also applying
%   a shift to |SDict| (which is not done automatically by
%   |ps:| or |ps::|, in contrast to |!| or |"|).
%    \begin{macrocode}
\cs_new_protected:Npn \__kernel_backend_postscript:n #1
  { \__kernel_backend_literal:n { ps: SDict ~ begin ~ #1 ~ end } }
\cs_generate_variant:Nn \__kernel_backend_postscript:n { x }
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
% PostScript for the header: a small saving but makes the code clearer.
% This is held until the start of shipout such that a document with no
% actual output does not write anything.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\bool_if:NT \g__kernel_backend_header_bool
  {
    \__kernel_backend_first_shipout:n
      { \__kernel_backend_literal:n { header = l3backend-dvips.pro } }
  }
%    \end{macrocode}
%
% \begin{macro}
%   {
%     \__kernel_backend_align_begin:,
%     \__kernel_backend_align_end:
%   }
%   In \texttt{dvips} there is no built-in saving of the current
%   position, and so some additional PostScript is required to set up the
%   transformation matrix and also to restore it afterwards. Notice the use
%   of the stack to save the current position \enquote{up front} and to
%   move back to it at the end of the process. Notice that the |[begin]|/^^A
%   |[end]| pair here mean that we can use a run of PostScript statements
%   in separate lines: not \emph{required} but does make the code and
%   output more clear.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\cs_new_protected:Npn \__kernel_backend_align_begin:
  {
    \__kernel_backend_literal:n { ps::[begin] }
    \__kernel_backend_literal_postscript:n { currentpoint }
    \__kernel_backend_literal_postscript:n { currentpoint~translate }
  }
\cs_new_protected:Npn \__kernel_backend_align_end:
  {
    \__kernel_backend_literal_postscript:n { neg~exch~neg~exch~translate }
    \__kernel_backend_literal:n { ps::[end] }
  }
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
% \begin{macro}{\__kernel_backend_scope_begin:, \__kernel_backend_scope_end:}
%   Saving/restoring scope for general operations needs to be done with
%   \texttt{dvips} positioning (try without to see this!). Thus we need the
%   |ps:| version of the special here. As only the graphics state is ever
%   altered within this pairing, we use the lower-cost |g|-versions.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\cs_new_protected:Npn \__kernel_backend_scope_begin:
  { \__kernel_backend_literal:n { ps:gsave } }
\cs_new_protected:Npn \__kernel_backend_scope_end:
  { \__kernel_backend_literal:n { ps:grestore } }
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}

%
% \subsection{\LuaTeX{} and \pdfTeX{} backends}
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
%<*luatex|pdftex>
%    \end{macrocode}
%
% Both \LuaTeX{} and \pdfTeX{} write PDFs directly rather than via an
% intermediate file. Although there are similarities, the move of \LuaTeX{}
% to have more code in Lua means we create two independent files using
% shared DocStrip code.
%
% \begin{macro}{\__kernel_backend_literal_pdf:n, \__kernel_backend_literal_pdf:x}
%   This is equivalent to \verb|\special{pdf:}| but the engine can
%   track it. Without the \texttt{direct} keyword everything is kept in
%   sync: the transformation matrix is set to the current point automatically.
%   Note that this is still inside the text (\texttt{BT} \dots \texttt{ET}
%   block).
%    \begin{macrocode}
\cs_new_protected:Npn \__kernel_backend_literal_pdf:n #1
  {
%<*luatex>
    \tex_pdfextension:D literal
%</luatex>
%<*pdftex>
    \tex_pdfliteral:D
%</pdftex>
      { \exp_not:n {#1} }
  }
\cs_generate_variant:Nn \__kernel_backend_literal_pdf:n { x }
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
% \begin{macro}{\__kernel_backend_literal_page:n}
%  Page literals are pretty simple. To avoid an expansion, we write out
%  by hand.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\cs_new_protected:Npn \__kernel_backend_literal_page:n #1
  {
%<*luatex>
    \tex_pdfextension:D literal ~
%</luatex>
%<*pdftex>
    \tex_pdfliteral:D
%</pdftex>
        page { \exp_not:n {#1} }
  }
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
% \begin{macro}{\__kernel_backend_scope_begin:, \__kernel_backend_scope_end:}
%  Higher-level interfaces for saving and restoring the graphic state.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\cs_new_protected:Npn \__kernel_backend_scope_begin:
  {
%<*luatex>
    \tex_pdfextension:D save \scan_stop:
%</luatex>
%<*pdftex>
    \tex_pdfsave:D
%</pdftex>
  }
\cs_new_protected:Npn \__kernel_backend_scope_end:

    \tex_pdfextension:D restore \scan_stop:
%</luatex>
%<*pdftex>
    \tex_pdfrestore:D
%</pdftex>
  }
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
% \begin{macro}{\__kernel_backend_matrix:n, \__kernel_backend_matrix:x}
%   Here the appropriate function is set up to insert an affine matrix
%   into the PDF. With \pdfTeX{} and \LuaTeX{} in direct PDF output mode there
%   is a primitive for this, which only needs the rotation/scaling/skew part.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\cs_new_protected:Npn \__kernel_backend_matrix:n #1
  {
%<*luatex>
    \tex_pdfextension:D setmatrix
%</luatex>
%<*pdftex>

%</pdftex>
        { \exp_not:n {#1} }

%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
%</luatex|pdftex>
%    \end{macrocode}
%
% \subsection{\texttt{dvipdfmx} backend}
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
%<*dvipdfmx|xetex>
%    \end{macrocode}
%
% The \texttt{dvipdfmx} shares code with the PDF mode one (using the common
% section to this file) but also with \XeTeX{}. The latter is close
% to identical to \texttt{dvipdfmx} and so all of the code here is extracted
% for both backends, with some \texttt{clean up} for \XeTeX{} as
% required.
%
% \begin{macro}{\__kernel_backend_literal_pdf:n, \__kernel_backend_literal_pdf:x}
%   Undocumented but equivalent to \pdfTeX{}'s |literal| keyword. It's similar to
%   be not the same as the documented |contents| keyword as that adds a |q|/|Q|
%   pair.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\cs_new_protected:Npn \__kernel_backend_literal_pdf:n #1
  { \__kernel_backend_literal:n { pdf:literal~ #1 } }
\cs_generate_variant:Nn \__kernel_backend_literal_pdf:n { x }
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
% \begin{macro}{\__kernel_backend_literal_page:n}
%  Whilst the manual says this is like |literal direct| in \pdfTeX{},
%  it closes the |BT| block!
%    \begin{macrocode}
\cs_new_protected:Npn \__kernel_backend_literal_page:n #1

% \begin{macro}{\__kernel_backend_literal_svg:n, \__kernel_backend_literal_svg:x}
%   Unlike the other backends, the requirements for making SVG files mean
%   that we can't conveniently transform all operations to the current point.
%   That makes life a bit more tricky later as that needs to be accounted for.
%   A new line is added after each call to help to keep the output readable
%   for debugging.

% \begin{variable}{\g__kernel_backend_scope_int, \l__kernel_backend_scope_int}
%   In SVG, we need to track scope nesting as properties attach to scopes; that
%   requires a pair of \texttt{int} registers.

% \begin{macro}{\__kernel_backend_scope:n, \__kernel_backend_scope:x}
%   In SVG, the need to attach concepts to a scope means we need to be sure we
%   will close all of the open scopes. That is easiest done if we only need
%   an outer \enquote{wrapper} \texttt{begin}/\texttt{end} pair, and within
%   that we apply operations as a simple scoped statements. To keep down the
%   non-productive groups, we also have a \texttt{begin} version that does take
%   an argument.
