The 'catoptions' package changes package loading internals so
-that all subsequently loaded packages can rely on normal/standard
-catcodes of all ASCII characters. The package defines canonical
-control sequences to represent all the visible ASCII characters.

- The \pkg'{catoptions} provides several extensions to the \pkgm'{pcatcode}. Apart from the tools related to setting up, preserving and restoring category codes, it includes many \texorlatex programming tools and even new list and options processing interfaces. It modifies the \latex kernel's options parsing mechanism to forestall premature expansion of options and values (in the manner of the \pkgs'{xkvltxp,kvoptions-patch}), so that the \pkg'{catoptions} may be loaded even before \hx{\documentclass}. In fact, the package is meant to be loaded on top of other packages, so as to exploit its catcode preserving scheme. Among other reasons, this necessitated the development of the options parsing scheme of this package. Only the catcode and options parsing facilities are treated in this manual; the macro programming interfaces will be covered in the documentation of the \pkg'{ltxtools}. The machinery of the \pkg'{catoptions} adds no cost to the simple syntax of \LaTeX's native options parser. Users who are already familiar with \LaTeX's legacy options processing don't necessarily have to invest the time that is essential in learning the extensive machinery of existing key-value and option parsers, although those other packages (\eg, \pkgs{xkeyval, kvsetkeys, kvoptions, skeyval, rkeyval, pgfkeys, pgfopts}) contain richer featuresets. Existing packages don't have to be modified to use the features of the \pkg'{catoptions}. The \pkg'{catoptions}, while maintaining simplicity, does not strip off even one level of outer braces in parsing package options and in list processing. It robustly normalizes key-values and options prior to parsing. The options parsing scheme of the \pkg'{catoptions} has been tried as a replacement parser on many packages, including \pkgs'{hyperref, cleveref, natbib} without difficulties.

\docsection(sec:motivation){Motivation}
-My motivation for turning to the \pkgnoidx'{pcatcode} was to save myself the trouble of declaring category codes at the beginning of my packages. After spending some time on the \pkgnoidx'{pcatcode}, I discovered I had learnt enough to make changes and additions to some of its macros and functionality. After completing the catcode stuff in the \pkg'{catoptions}, I wanted to pass options to the package. If the package is to be loaded on top of other packages, as intended, then its options parsing scheme should be independent of other packages. But realizing the trouble with passing expandable option values to packages and classes via the \latex kernel's scheme, I decided to implement modifications to the kernel's options parser. Apart from the problem of premature expansion of options and values by the \latex kernel, outer curly braces in option values are lost during parsing. Indeed, the kernel's option parsing scheme doesn't recognize option values indicated with the equality sign. And the syntaxes (if not also the semantics) of \cptuse{latex3}, whose options parser is presumably more robust than that of \cptuse{latex2e}, calls for additional investment in time that may not be readily affordable to some users.

+The command \fx{\XUnknownOptionHandler} can be used in place of \XDecS to specify default action(s) for options undefined in any family in \ang{fams}. \ang{handler} refers to the default function that should be executed if undeclared options are called from families \ang{fams} by the user. \hx{\CurrentOption} can be deployed within \ang{handler} to access the option name (coupled with its current value) for which the option name is unknown. As mentioned above in the case of \XDecS, you can use \fx{#1}, \fx{#2} and \fx{#3} within \ang{handler} to access the current family, current option (uncoupled from its current value), and current value, respectively. \ang{na} is the list of options for which \ang{handler} shouldn't apply; for these options, the kernel's unknown option handler (\ie, \hx{\default@ds}) would apply.

+
+then the unknown option \fx{\cpt@curropt} will be momentarily defined and executed with the option function \ang{callback}. The family of the new option will be \fx{\cpt@currfam} (the prevailing family name); its default value will be \fx{\cpt@currval} (the value specified by the user for the unknown option); and its macro function will be the above-indicated \ang{callback}. You can use \fx{#1}, \fx{#2} and \fx{#3} in \ang{callback} to refer to the current option family, option name, and option value, respectively.
-The following example produces a warning when the user supplies an option that was not previously declared.
+If \fx{\cpt@currval} is \hx{true} or \hx{false}, the new (\ie, unknown) option will be defined as a boolean option with macro prefix \quotedfx{\@currname @}; otherwise it will be defined as a command option with macro prefix \quotedfx{cmd\@currname @}. (See the descriptions of the commands \ffx'{\XDeclareCommandOption,\XDeclareBooleanOption} for the meaning of \quoted{macro prefix}.)

The \stform of \fx{\XProcessOptions} works like the \unstform except that the former also copies user input from the \hx{\documentclass} command and processes the options in the order specified by the \hx{\documentclass}. When the user specifies an option in the \hx{\documentclass} which also exists in the local family (or families) of the package calling \fx{\XProcessOptions}\RedStar, the local option will be set as well. In this case, \fx{#1} in \fx{\XDeclareOption} macro will contain the user-value entered in the \hx{\documentclass} (or \fx{\usepackage} or \fx{\RequirePackage}) command for this option. First the global options from \hx{\documentclass} will set local options and afterwards the local options (specified via \hhx'{\usepackage, \RequirePackage, \LoadClass} or similar commands) will set local options, which could overwrite the global options set earlier, depending on how the options sections are organized. The macro \fx{\XProcessOptions}\RedStar reduces to \fx{\XProcessOptions} only when issued from the class which forms the document class for the file at hand (to avoid setting the same options twice), but not for classes loaded later using, for instance, \hx{\LoadClass}. Global options that do not exist in the local families of the package or class calling \fx{\XProcessOptions}\RedStar will be simply ignored or highlighted.
