%% === Outline                                  ===
%% % Almost                             %% 2011/07/23
%% % all the            %% including https 2011/08/27
%% The link macros of 'texlinks' are based on macros 
%% |\httpref| and |\httpsref|. For use of 'texlinks' with 'blog.sty', 
%% the latter provides definitions of `\httpref' and `\httpsref'
%% suitable for \HTML, where a choice of opening a new 
%% tab or window---or not---is relevant.
%%
%% For use with 'hyperref' (or ...?), 'texlinks' may 
%% provide definitions of `\httpref' and `\httpsref' 
%% based on `\href'. The decision to do so or not may happen at 
%% `\begin{document}'. 'blog.sty' generates \HTML\ without 
%% using the `{document}' environment, so we might assume 
%% that when `\begin{document}' is found, we are running
%% 'hyperref', or just \emph{something} that provides a 
%% useful `\href'. We might then execute a definition of 
%% `\httpref' in terms of `\href'. Well, not sure ...
%% 
%% Moreover, a \acro{PDF} file with links may be \emph{printed}, 
%% and klicking the links on the paper may fail. 
%% \URL s in main text, on the other hand, sometimes are 
%% troublesome. I consider it a good idea to present 
%% links with their \URL\ as the displayed text in \emph{footnotes}
%% (or endnotes). It may even be useful with \HTML\ to present 
%% the \URL s displayed in some 
%% %% 2011/01/27:                               %% rm. 2011/10/20

%% === Package Options                          ===
%% \label{sec:opt}                                  %% 2013/01/21
%% Somebody may want to suppress a definition of `\httpref'
%% at `\begin{document}' ... [2011/01/24, TODO]
%% %% 2011/02/10:
%% 
%% v0.3: Package option |[blog]| suppresses \emph{any} 
%% `\AtBeginDocument' actions---fine for use with 'blog.sty'. 
\DeclareOption{blog}{\let\AtBeginDocument\@gobble}
%% This option may be improved, and another option may be

\newcommand*{\html}{\htm l}     %% 2012/12/08 below previously
\newcommand*{\pdf}{.pdf}
%% |\DoubleArg{<cmd-maybe-args>}{<arg>}| (v0.83) works like
%%           \[`<cmd-maybe-args>{<arg>}{<arg>}'\] 
%% It replaces `\@double@first@arg' from v0.8;
%% it may also be useful as a user command.
%% It differs from \LaTeX's `\@dblarg' that adds 
%% a missing optional argument:
\newcommand*{\DoubleArg}[2]{#1{#2}{#2}}

%% === Formatting \URL s and File/Package Names ===
%% %% <- was "Fonts for" 2013/02/20
%% \label{sec:fonts}                                %% 2012/12/19
%% %% ** Fonts for \URL s, File Names, and Package Names **
%% %% new 2011/10/19, TODO: `meansltx'? vgl. `makedoc.cfg'
%% This section ``provides" markup for displaying \URL s (|\urlfmt|), 
%% file names (|\filenamefmt|---thinking of single files 
%% that may be found in the internet or on your computer---, 
%% and ``packages" (|\pkgnamefmt|). 
%% For the latter two, in certain files I use shorthands 
%% |\file| and |\pkg|, resp., ... 
%% `\providecommand' will be used so that the user may choose   %% 2012/12/28
%% the style before loading 'texlinks'. 
%% (Once I may provide a variant of `\providecommand'           %% 2012/12/28
%%  that postpones the ``provision" to the ``beginning" of the 
%%  ``document", even with 'blog.sty' TODO)
%% 
%% It is usual to use 
%% the same font as with                                        %% 2012/12/28
%% `\texttt' for formatting \TeX\ code 
%% (``verbatim", `\verb' etc.). It may also be common to use 
%% `\texttt' for file names, perhaps even for \URL s. 
%% Therefore we provide |\urlfmt{<url>}| as follows: 
\providecommand*{\urlfmt}{\texttt}
%% The user may (later) choose a more advanced treatment by 
%% loading \ctanpkgstyref{url} and 
%% \[`\renewcommand{\urlfmt}{\url}'\]
%% 
%% The file name format |\filenamefmt{<file-name>}|
%% may differ from the format for \URL s---if somebody 
%% wants/adjusts it, \emph{here} it is the \emph{same:}
\providecommand*{\filenamefmt}{\texttt}
%% ... 
%% I favor `\code' over `\texttt' as ``logical markup," 
%% inspired by the \xmltagcode{code} element in \HTML, 
%% but it is too difficult to provide this right now here ...
%%
%% (TODO 2012/12/29: This section seems to be relevant for 
%%                   \secref{url-text} only and might move there.)
%% 
%% %% Instead of |\pkgnamefmt{<pack-name>}|, 
%% %% 'blog.sty' had `\pkg{<pack-name>}',      %% was `prg' 2011/10/20
%% %% without a proper implementation. 
%% |\pkgnamefmt{<package-name>}| displays the name of a ``package". 
%% Using `\textsf' for `\pkgnamefmt' 
%% seems to conform to common practice today---implemented here. 
%% The following code may later be suppressed at some package options, 
%% as with the choice for `\httpref':   %% TODO 2011/01/24
% \@ifdefinable\pkgnamefmt {\let\pkgnamefmt\@firstofone}
% \AtBeginDocument         {\let\pkgnamefmt\textsf}
%% <- This was here until v0.7, makes a difference for \acro{PDF}
%% vs.\ 'blog'/\HTML.                       %% / 2012/12/28
%% [Cf.~\secref{opt}!? TODO]---%% 2013/01/21
%% Now we choose the same as with `\urlfmt':
\providecommand*{\pkgnamefmt}{\textsf}
%% Indeed, the same day we are providing `\textsf' in 'blog.sty'.
%% However, the rationale of the earlier solution was 
%% that web pages use sans-serif as the \emph{normal} font ...
%%
%% %% moving \httpsref 2011/08/27:
%% === Providing &\httpref\ and   &\httpsref    ===
%%                             %% rm. \kern-\baselineskip 2011/10/10
%% \[|\httpref{<host-path[#frag]>}{<text>}|\]
%% should display <text> 
%% as a link to `http://<host-path[#frag]>'; 
%% \[|\httpsref{<host-path[#frag]>}{<text>}|\]
%% is the obvious analogue for `https:' \URL s. 
%% In case `\begin{document}' is found with a definition of 
%% `\href' present, we provide definitions of `\httpref'
%% and `\httpsref' in terms of `\href' there:
\AtBeginDocument{%
    \@ifundefined{href}{%
%         \PackageError ... TODO!? 2011/01/24
      }{\newcommand*{\httpref} [1]{\href {http://#1}}%
        \newcommand*{\httpsref}[1]{\href{https://#1}}}}
%%
%% === Variants of &\httpref\ and &\httpsref    ===
%% |\NormalHTTPref| may be used as an alias for `\httpref' 
%% in situations where the latter has been redefined    %% v0.2
%% (as in \secref{urlfoot}):
\AtBeginDocument{\newlet\NormalHTTPref\httpref}  %% TODO: sec:opt
%% |\ithttpref{<url>}{<text>}| displays <text> in italics:
% \newcommand*{\ithttpref}[2]{\NormalHTTPref{#1}{\textit{#2}}}
%% However, I seem never to have used it. And I would now 
%% prefer |\metahttpref| TODO ...
%%
%% ==== Protocol Prefix                   ====      %% 2012/12/15
%% |\httpprefix| is an idea that was missing in 'blog.sty' up to v0.3. 
%% It may be used to determine generally whether a display of an 
%% \URL\ should include `http://'. I choose as default what was default 
%% in 'blog.sty' 
%% (i.e., ``don't include"):                        %% add. 2011/01/27
\newlet\httpprefix\@empty                   %% \newlet 2015/05/25
%% `\let\httpprefix\relax' would be bad for 'blog.sty' 
%% (would display `\relax'), 
%% while it would be somewhat more efficient.%%%---%%%
%%
%% Now you may customize `\httpprefix' by 
%% \[`\renewcommand{\httpprefix}{http://}'\]
%% %% v0.2:
%% ---or by `\let\httpprefix'|\theHTTPprefix|:
\newcommand*{\theHTTPprefix}{http://}
%% With |\urlhttpsref{<url>}|, we \emph{force} displaying \qtd{`https://'}:
\newcommand*{\urlhttpsref}[1]{\httpsref{#1}{\urlfmt{https://#1}}}
%%
%% ==== The \URL\ (or a Part) as the Link Text Phrase ==== %% (...) 2012/12/28
%% \label{sec:url-text}
%% With |\urlhttpref{<url>}|, that \URL\ <url> is displayed:
\newcommand*{\urlhttpref}[1]{%
    \NormalHTTPref{#1}{\urlfmt{\httpprefix#1}}} 
%% %% moved up here 2011/10/20
%% In 'blog.sty' (as of 2010/05/26), there was a command 
%% `\urlref' instead of `\urlhttpref'. It did not provide `\urlfmt'.
%% 
%% |\domainref{<domain>}{<path>}| is similar, but is intended 
%% to show the domain part <domain> of the \URL\ 
%% `<domain>/<path>' only. 
%% This may be useful when the entire \URL\ does not look 
%% nice, while the domain name is a kind of logo, 
%% and when comparing what different web portals have 
%% to say about the same matter, such as the web versions 
%% of newspapers or magazines. So you may compare how
%% %% v0.83 new example, \tugctanorg gone:
%% % \domainref{www.ctan.org}{pkg/morehype} and 
%% % \domainref {\tugctanorg}{pkg/morehype} inform about %% \tugc... 2012/12/29
%% % the 'morehype' bundle (v0.8).
%% \domainref{www.ctan.org}{tex-archive/macros} and
%% \domainref{tug.ctan.org}{tex-archive/macros}
%% display the top-level `macros' directory of the \TeX\ archive.
%% % The command is also used in \secref{wiki-stack}
%% % for `tex.stackexchange.com'. %% why? rm. 2015/05/24 -- see below
%% %% texblog 2012/06/08; v0.8 here
\newcommand*{\domainref}[2]{\httpref{#1/#2}{\urlfmt{#1}}}
%% Note that on some domains 
%% only domain, an article \acro{ID} and maybe the `.html' 
%% suffix and/or a ``category" between domain and \acro{ID}
%% is required for a working \URL, as opposed to an \URL
%% that is displayed in the browser's address line
%% and contains a kind of transcription of the article's title---e.g.,
%% \urlhttpref{tex.stackexchange.com/questions/84878}.
%%
%% v0.83 adds \ |\prefixref{<prefix>}{<suffix>}{<text>}| \
%% just as an alias for `\domainref' because the same function 
%% may be useful in some cases when `<domain>/<path>',
%% for some code strings <prefix> and <suffix>,
%% is the same as `<prefix><suffix>' and `<prefix>'
%% for some <category>,
%% is the same as `<domain>/<category>':
\newlet\prefixref\domainref
%% Then you may compair how 
%% \[\prefixref{www.ctan.org/tex-archive}{macros}\]
%% and \[\prefixref{tug.ctan.org/tex-archive}{macros}\]
%% display the `generic' subdirectory of the `macros' directory.
%%
%% ==== Linking \URL s in Footnotes       ====      %% 2011/08/27
%% \label{sec:urlfoot}
%% |\foothttpurlref{<url>}| just is like
%% `\footnote{\urlhttpref{<url>}}':
\newcommand*{\foothttpurlref}[1]{\footnote{\urlhttpref{#1}}}
%% |\urlfoot{<short>}{<id>}|
%% redefines `\httpref' so that you can use all the shorthand 
%% macros based on `\httpref' to get the according \URL\ 
%% display (as provided by `\urlhttpref')
%% in a footnote without the need to include the 
%% entire \URL\ in your source code. `\urlfoot' is available 
%% with <short> and <id>
%% when a shorthand |\<short>{<id>}{<text>}| has been defined
%% where `\<short>' is the macro name and <id> is the target 
%% identifier (usually part of the \URL\ generated from <id>)
%% according to the syntax declaration of `\<short>'. 
\newcommand*{\urlfoot}[2]{{%
    \let\httpref\foothttpurlref 
    \let\httpprefix\theHTTPprefix   %% TODO customizable!?
    \csname #1\endcsname{#2}{}}}
%% \begin{example}\leavevmode
%% \[`\CtanPkgRef{morehype}{MoreHype}'
%%   \mbox{\quad and\quad } `\ctanpkgref{morehype}'\] 
%% are provided in \secref{sing-pkgs} for linking to
%% `http://ctan.org/pkg/morehype'.
%% \begin{itemize}
%%   \item 
%%     % Try `CtanPkgRef' \emph{here}: 
%%     % \CtanPkgRef{morehype}{MoreHype},\\ 
%%     % for the \emph{footnote} try

%%     % \urlfoot{CtanPkgRef}{morehype}
%%     \simpleyields{\CtanPkgRef{morehype}{MoreHype}}   %% etc. 2012/12/30
%%   \item 
%%     \simplecodefbox{\urlfoot{CtanPkgRef}{morehype}}
%%     yields          \urlfoot{CtanPkgRef}{morehype}

%%     \simplecodefbox{\urlfoot{ctanpkgref}{morehype}}
%%     yields          \urlfoot{ctanpkgref}{morehype}
%% \end{itemize}
%% The lonely \qtd{\pkgnamefmt{morehype}} you see there above 
%% demonstrates that it doesn't work with `ctanpkgref' because 
%% `\ctanpkgref' doesn't have separate arguments for 
%% <id> and <text>, it actually doubles <id>. 
%% A local `\let\ctanpkgref\CtanPkgRef' could help, 
%% but right now I prefer waiting for a better idea. 
%% [TODO] %% 2011/01/27
%% \end{example}
%%
%% v0.3: Now that using `\urlfoot' and `ctanpkgref' together 
%% is so clumsy, while I use it quite often,    %% 2011/02/10
%% we get |\urlpkgfoot{<package-id>}|, abbreviating 
%% `\urlfoot{CtanPkgRef}{<package-id>}':
\newcommand* {\urlpkgfoot} {\urlfoot{CtanPkgRef}}
%% ==== \URL\ Bases ====                            %% 2012/03/09
%% \label{sec:bases} 
%% We typically refer to many web pages under a certain domain, 
%% or in certain subdirectories there. Before v0.6, 
%% I made many definitions like 
%% \[`\newcommand*{\myref}[1]{\httpref{<my-base>/#1}}'\]
%% for this purpose.
%% Storing the definition of such a `\myref' uses 8 tokens 
%% %% including parameter ... %% todo done 2012/12/17
%% in addition to those from <my-base>.
%% With 
%% \[`\newcommand*{\myref}{\httpbaseref{<my-base>}}'\] %% } 2012/12/17
%% we need 5                                       %% was 3 2012/12/17
%% tokens instead, using \ |\httpbaseref{<base>}{<rest>}{<text>}| \
%%                                                 %% <- added text 2013/01/21
%% defined as follows:
\newcommand*{\httpbaseref}[2]{\httpref{#1/#2}}
%% Then `\myref{<rest>}{<text>}' will work like          %% 2013/01/21
%% \[`\httpref{<my-base>/<rest>}{<text>}'\]
%% We change many definitions in ensuing sections accordingly---and 
%% with v0.82 we add a shorthand for definitions like the avove one 
%% for `\myref'. \[|\MakeBasedHref{<cmd>}{<base>}|\] may be applied 
%% as \[`\MakeBasedHref{\myref}{<my-base>}'\] above. In the general 
%% situation, `<cmd>{<path>}{<text>}' will work like 
%% \[`\httpref{<base>/<path>}{<text>}'\]            %% own line 2015/03/27

%% The present section on links to Wikipedia articles 
%% starts with the rather obvious
%% \[|\wikilangref{<language-code>}{<lemma>}{<text>}|\]
%% but then gets somewhat technical. \secref{langcode}
%% may please the user again by 
%% \[|\Wikiref{<lemma>}|\] 
%% where the language version of the Wikipedia is chosen 
%% according to a macro `\langcode' expanding to \qtdcode{en} 
%% by default. On 
%% \domainref{tex.stackexchange.com}{/questions/84878}, 
%% I have posted the following ``minimal working example:"
%% \begin{verbatim}
%%      \documentclass{minimal} 
%%      \usepackage{hyperref,texlinks} 
%%      \begin{document} 
%%          Look up \wikiref{Charlie Bucket}{Wikipedia}
%%              for \Wikiref{Charlie Bucket}. 
%%      \end{document}
%% \end{verbatim}
%% You may find it as `wiki_mwe.tex' with outcome `wiki_mwe.pdf'.
%% See \secref{langcode} for more examples.     %% 2012/12/30
%%
%% Apart from `\langcode', more advanced things are 
%% \emph{disambiguation} (\secref{wiki-back}),
%% ``piped links"        (\secref{wiki-pipe}), and
%% special characters in \URL s (\secref{wiki-urls}).
%%
%% %% 2015/05/19:
%% Starting in spring 2015, the 'morehype' bundle offers 
%% an additional package 'wikimed.sty' that includes 
%% Wikipedias ``sister projects" like Wiktionary and 
%% provides a variant of \wikienref{URL encoding}{\URL\ encoding},
%% converting punctuation and things like umlauts for valid \URL s.
%% 
%% === Backbones   ===
%% \label{sec:wiki-back}
%% As of v0.6, we have a \dqtd{backbone} macro 
%% \[|\wikilangref{<language-code>}{<lemma>}{<text>}|\]
%% for links to Wikipedia. 
%% (It was |\wikiref| before, starting with v0.4---sorry!)
%% <language-code> consists of 
%% two characters like \lq`de'\rq\ for German Wikipedia articles 
%% or \lq`en'\rq\ for English ones. <lemma> is the identifier of 
%% the article, and <text> is displayed as the link:
% \newcommand*{\wikilangref}[2]{\httpref{#1.wikipedia.org/wiki/#2}}
%% <- 2012/03/09 etc. with \secref{bases} ->
\newcommand*{\wikilangref}[1]{\httpbaseref{#1.wikipedia.org/wiki}}
%% There is |\Wikilangref{<language-code>}{<lemma>}| 
%% for the case that <lemma> and <text> are the same. 
%% With v0.7 however, this command becomes more powerful, 
%% see \secref{wiki-pipe}.
% \newcommand*{\Wikilangref}[2]{\wikilangref{#1}{#2}{#2}}
%% `\wikilangref{<lang>}[<lemma>]{<text>}' would be nicer;
%% %% <- shortened 2012/01/06 ->
%% however, the present code is to work with 'blog.sty' 
%% which does not support optional arguments.%%%---
%%
%% Quite often, programs share their names with movies,
%% biological species, etc., then lemma disambiguation is required. 
%% Usually, we don't want to display the disambiguation.
%% \[|\Wikilangdisambref{<language-code>}{<term>}{<tag>}|\] 
%% will link to
%% \[`http://<language-code>.wikipedia.org/wiki/<term>_(<tag>)'\]

%% was something like a more general variant |\wikidisambref|, 
%% now I doubt its usefulness and \textcolor{blue}{omit} it 
%% in order to see where it occurs (2011/05/13).

%% (double brackets) is actually supported by 
%% 'blog.sty' with 'markblog.sty',                       %% was `blogexec' 2012/12/06
%% while otherwise only 
%% \[\GenCmdBox+\Wikilangref{<language-code>}{<lemma>|<text>}+\]
%% works---with settings more below something like 
%% \GenCmdBox+\Wikiref{<lemma>|<text>}+---which 
%% admittedly is not much better than the equivalent 
%% \[`\wikiref{<lemma>}{<text>}'\]
%% 
%% Even Wikipedia's feature that empty <text> removes 
%% the disambiguation term as with `[[Pipe (computing)|]]'
%% resulting in \qtd{\wikiref{Pipe (computing)}{Pipe}}

%% === Blanks and Umlauts in \URL s and Anchors === 
%% \label{sec:wiki-urls}
%% %% <- renamed 2011/05/17 reworked:
%% |\underscorechar| seemed to be useful in macro 
%% definitions. The name was inspired by \LaTeX's 
%% `\@backslashchar' and `\@percentchar'. 
%% However, I am now trying what happens without it. 
%% It occurred in `blog.tex' for the documentation of 
%% the 'blog' package, but `\string_' seems to be a good 
%% replacement.
% \newcommand \underscorechar {}
% {\@makeother\_ \gdef\underscorechar{_}}
%% Anyway, in my notes I have a more elegant macro for 
%% providing ``other" versions of special characters. 
%% 
%% Guessing what `\underscorechar' was good for (2011-05-17):
%% Wikipedia lemmas and anchors often or even \emph{typically} 
%% contain \emph{blank spaces}. 
%% The Wikipedia software usually converts them into 
%% underscore characters. Blank spaces in \emph{lemmas} 
%% seem \emph{not} to need treatment here in 'texlinks'. 
%% However, Wikipedia also creates \emph{anchors} from 
%% \emph{section headings}, which typically contain blank spaces. 
%% This has been more difficult ...
%%
%% Likewise with umlauts: text encoding suffices for \emph{lemmas}
%% (my `\urluml' is not needed for this purpose). 
%% But umlauts in \emph{anchors} 
%% generated from \emph{section headings} are different. 
%% While umlauts in \emph{lemmas} are represented by sequences 
%% starting with a \emph{percent} character, the anchors 
%% use a \emph{dot} instead of the percent character. 
%% Therefore now |\ancuml{<char>}| is provided:
\newcommand*{\ancuml}[1]{\csname ancuml:#1\endcsname}

%% %% new from scratch 2015/05/16f.:
%% ==== Personal motivation                        ====
%% When I created `texlinks.sty' originally, referring to 
%% \CTAN\ material seemed simple to me. Well, what is \CTAN?
%% Please don't ask me, see the \wikiref{CTAN}{Wikipedia article}
%% and/or its major ``home page" \urlhttpref{www.ctan.org}---or 
%% \CTAN\ introducing itself on \urlhttpref{ctan.org/ctan}---or
%% the \ukfaqref{ctan}{\acro{UK FAQ}!}---Well,
%% in order to generate \wikiref{URL}{\URL}s from human-readable
%% or memorizable input and to document my macros that try to 
%% serve this purpose, I must guess what a domain or \CTAN\ has in 
%% mind when they provide \URL s, while they don't seem to tell us
%% what they have in mind and what rules they follow. So I am just 
%% reporting what I observed and what I guess, and I am trying to
%% introduce two technical terms ... \ The ``discovery" section
%% (\secref{ctan-discovery}) may be confusing, then I hope that 
%% the ``summarizing section" (\secref{ctan-tables}) 
%% will help by its tables.---The present \CTAN\ section (\secref{ctan}) 
%% became especially difficult in December 2012 
%% (cf. \ctanannpref{12-12-006718}{\CTAN\ announcement})
%% and January 2013 when some \URL s stopped to work 
%% or changed their behavior---several times very much 
%% within a few days---and I struggled to follow.
%% 
%% ==== \CTAN ology: kinds of \CTAN\ \URL s (archives, bases) ====
%% % \subsubsection{\CTAN ology:\titlefootnote{A moment ago,
%% %                   \wikienref{L. Ron Hubbard}{L.~Ron Hubbard}
%% %                   kindly suggested the section's title to me.}
%% %                   \ \ kinds of \CTAN\ \URL s (archives, bases)}
%% \label{sec:ctan-discovery}
%% \strong{One thing} are \strong{files} that have been \strong{contributed}
%% to the \strong{\CTAN\ archive} so that \strong{users} can download 
%% them in order to run \TeX\ on their computers, especially for new
%% features that have been made available only in recent months.
%% Such files are submitted to the/a \CTAN\ archive, available through 
%% certain \URL s over the internet.
%%
%% It seems that after some years it became difficult to understand 
%% what features have been provided by so many contributors and 
%% how to find them. For a while, the `help' subtree of a \CTAN\ archive
%% tried to help here (especially the \emph{\TeX\ catalogue}) ... 
%% but eventually only experts could understand the abundance. 
%% So a starting page just for providing tools for 
%% \strong{exploring} the \TeX\ archive became useful and was 
%% provided---over certain \URL s. Here I have called pages
%% available by such \URL s as ``\CTAN\ \strong{description}"
%% pages or so---\strong{second thing}.
%%
%% In order to save internet capacity (per time, 
%% and to save users' patience), \strong{\Wikiref{web mirror}}s 
%% of both archive and description pages have been established 
%% and maintained---copies of the central directory structure.
%% 
%% I have seen two kinds of \strong{\URL s} interesting here:
%% \begin{itemize}
%%   \item \strong{domains} ending on `ctan.org'
%%   \item \URL s ending on `/tex-archive'
%% \end{itemize}
%% 
%% \TeX\ \strong{archive} \URL s show (only) a list of top-level 
%% directories `biblio'..., `dviware', `fonts', `graphics', 
%% `help', `indexing', `info', `install', `language'...,
%% `macros', `obsolete', `support', `systems', `tds',
%% `usergrps', and `web'. This is what characterizes \TeX\ 
%% \emph{archives} or their \emph{roots}, as opposed to 
%% \emph{description} pages, by their \strong{content}
%% (as opposed to characterization by the form of \strong{\URL s}).
%% Including deeper subdirectories, the directory structures
%% of all \TeX\ archives are the same (``mirrors"). They 
%% change by new contributions, but within 24 hours, 
%% other \TeX\ archives copy the changes of the first 
%% one.---There are several \strong{designs} of archive root pages, 
%% varying between archive \emph{mirrors.}
%%
%% \CTAN\ \strong{description} pages have \emph{roots} as well, 
%% and 'texlinks' previously has chosen macro names containing 
%% `ctanorgbase' for accessing them, so there is an idea to call those roots 
%% \strong{\CTAN\ bases}. In spring 2015, all bases I know
%% have the same \strong{design}, and they actually \emph{combine}
%% archive and description: an upper section shows the 
%% archive top-level directories, the remaining page offers 
%% the description/exploring tools. To compare bases with archives
%% in terms of top-level subdirectories, I know of \CTAN\ base 
%% subdirectories `pkg', `author', `topic', and `tex-archive'.
%%

%% \URL\ in the left-hand column, so the list of macros 
%% probably is not complete here, it just is to give an \emph{idea} 
%% for the following sections. The `\nullctan'\codedots\
