+%   2007-2008 Christian Schneider \texttt{<software(at)chschneider(dot)eu>}.}}

+%

+% \clearpage
+%
+% \begin{abstract}
+%   \textsf{ionumbers} stands for `input/output numbers'.
+%
+%   This package restyles numbers in math mode. If a number in the input file
+%   is written, e.g., as |$3,231.44$| as commonly used in English texts, this
+%   package is able to restyle it to be output as `$3\,231{,}44$' as commonly
+%   used in German texts (and vice versa). This may be very useful, if you have
+%   a large table and want to include it in texts with different output
+%   conventions without the need of changing the table.
+%
+%   Furthermore this package can automatically group digits left to the decimal
+%   separator (\emph{thousands}) and right to the decimal separator
+%   (\emph{thousandths}) in triplets without the need of specifing commas
+%   (English) or points (German) as separators. E.g., the input |$1234.567890$|
+%   can be output as `$1\,234.\,567\,890$'.
+%
+%   Finally, an |e| starts the exponent of the number. For example, |$21e6$|
+%   may be output as `$26\times10\,^{6}$'.
+% \end{abstract}
+%
+% \section{Conflicts with other packages}
+%
+% This package potentially conflicts with any other package that defines a
+% macro for any of the following characters: |.,+-0123456789|
+%
+% There are tests for these cases and warning or error messages may be output.
+% Please load \textsf{ionumbers} as last package to be able to detect as
+% many conflicts as possible. As there is no way to detect conflicts in all
+% cases, please report any package known to conflict with
+% \textsf{ionumbers} to the author.
+%
+% \section{Details of number handling}
+%
+% \subsection{General rules}
+%
+% Every input \emph{in math mode} consisting of the following characters is
+% treated by this package: |.,+-0123456789| These characters get macro
+% definitions. A number is any combination of these characters without
+% anything---not even white spaces---in between them. There are two
+% exceptions/special cases:
+%
+% \begin{enumerate}
+%   \item The separator characters |.| and |,| are not treated as part of the
+%     number at its end. This avoids problems with lists like
+%     |1, 2, 3, \ldots|, where the commas are not part of in the numbers. Note,
+%     however, that the commas are treated as part of the numbers in the first
+%     two appearances in |1,2,3,\ldots|, as the commas are immediately followed
+%     by a digit. Please input lists with white spaces after the separators as
+%     shown in the first case.
+%   \item The sign characters |+| and |-| will only be considered as part of
+%     the number, if they appear at the begining of a number.
+% \end{enumerate}
+%
+% The lower case letter |e| plays a special role. An |e| following immediatly a
+% number (without any white space or other input in between) can be configured
+% as begining of the exponential part of a number. The letter is eaten from the
+% input in this case and substituted by some configurable output. (It is
+% virtually impossible to handle it the same way as the other and assigning a
+% macro definition to |e|.)
+%
+% \subsection{Caveats}
+%
+% Please be aware that the first decimal separator of a number marks the
+% begining of the thousandths part of a number; every part of a number
+% appearing left to the first decimal separator is the thousands part. That is
+% why, the input |$1.234.567$| with (only) the package option
+% |autothousandths=true| (|.| is the thousands separator; option will be
+% explained later) will lead to `$1.234.\,567$' in the output. Note the small
+% space after the second point as a result of |234.567| being treated as
+% thousandths part. The thousandths separator---by default a small space---will
+% be output between the third and fourth digit of the thousandths part; the
+% additional point from the input will not be omitted. The input is
+% syntactically incorrect (there must not be two decimal separators in one
+% number) and the output is \emph{not} a bug of this package.
+%
+% A number following an |e| treated as exponential part of a number may be
+% typeset as superscript (depending on the configuration). In the case of an
+% exponential part there \emph{may} be arbitrary input between |e| and the
+% number in the exponent. Especially, the input |$1e \Pi 2| with package option
+% |exponent=timestento| (will be explained later) leads to a superscript
+% |2| in the output: `$1\times10\,\Pi^{2}$'. Again, the input is
+% syntactically incorrect and there is no easy way to circumvent |e| from being
+% treated as begining of the exponential part in this case (at least, I did not
+% find it).
+%
+% \section{Usage}
+%
+% Package options are used to globally configure a default behaviour of
+% \textsf{ionumbers} for the whole document. These options usually consist
+% of a \meta{key}|=|\meta{value} pair. Local changes from this global
+% configuration for arbitrary parts of the document can be applied with special
+% commands.
+%
+% \subsection{Package options concerning the separators in the input}
+% \label{sec:in}
+%
+% The following options configure the meaning of separators in the \LaTeX{}
+% input file:
+% \begin{mydescription}
+%   \item[\texttt{comma}=\meta{value}] comma `|,|' will be treated as \meta{value}
+%   \item[\texttt{point}=\meta{value}] point `|.|' will be treated as \meta{value}
+% \end{mydescription}
+%
+% The following \meta{value}s can be chosen for both of them:
+% \begin{mydescription}
+%   \item[\texttt{ignore}] the separator will be ignored (no output)
+%   \item[\texttt{decimal}] decimal separator (separating the thousands from
+%     the thousandths part of a number)
+%   \item[\texttt{thousands}] thousands separator (used for grouping of
+%     thousands part)
+%   \item[\texttt{default}] default behaviour of \textsf{ionumbers}
+%     (|decimal| for |point|; |thousands| for |comma|)
+% \end{mydescription}
+%
+% The separator for exponents is always the lowercase letter |e|. A
+% thousandths separator does not exist in input files; such a separator will
+% only be output, if automatic grouping of the thousandths part is enabled (see
+% below).
+%
+% \subsection{Package options concerning the separators in the output}
+% \label{sec:out}
+%
+% The previously described options assign a \emph{meaning} to separators in
+% the input file. The \emph{output} of the \emph{meanings} is configured via
+% the following options:
+% \begin{mydescription}
+%   \item[\texttt{thousands}=\meta{value}] thousands separator will be output as \meta{value}
+%   \item[\texttt{decimal}=\meta{value}] decimal separator will be output as \meta{value}
+%   \item[\texttt{thousandths}=\meta{value}] thousandths separator will be \meta{value}
+%   \item[\texttt{exponent}=\meta{value}] exponent separator will be output as \meta{value}
+% \end{mydescription}
+%
+% The list of valid \meta{value}s for |thousands|, |decimal|, and |thousandths| is:
+% \begin{mydescription}
+%   \item[\texttt{none}] will be ignored (no output)
+%   \item[\texttt{point}] normal point; this is the default point without
+%     \textsf{ionumbers}
+%   \item[\texttt{comma}] normal comma
+%   \item[\texttt{punctpoint}] punctuation point (point followed by small space)
+%   \item[\texttt{punctcomma}] punctuation comma (point followed by small space);
+%     this is the default comma without \textsf{ionumbers}
+%   \item[\texttt{apostrophe}] apostrophe (actually |$^\prime$|; \emph{not} for
+%     |decimal|)
+%   \item[\texttt{phantom}] space with width of a point (|$\phantom{.}$|;
+%     \emph{not} for |decimal|)
+%   \item[\texttt{space}] small space (|$\,$|; \emph{not} for |decimal|)
+%   \item[\texttt{default}] default behaviour of \textsf{ionumbers}
+%     (|punctcomma| for |thousands|; |point| for |decimal|; |space| for
+%    |thousandths|)
+% \end{mydescription}
+%
+% The list of valid \meta{value}s for |exponent| is:
+% \begin{mydescription}
+%   \item[\texttt{none}] will be ignored (no output)
+%   \item[\texttt{ite/itE}] italic lower/upper case letter `e'
+%   \item[\texttt{rme/rmE}] roman lower/upper case letter `e'
+%   \item[\texttt{timestento}] |$\times10\,$| with following number output as
+%     superscript
+%   \item[\texttt{cdottento}] |$\cdot10\,$| with following number output as
+%     superscript
+%   \item[\texttt{wedge}] |$^\wedge$|
+%   \item[\texttt{default}] default behaviour of \textsf{ionumbers} (|ite|)
+% \end{mydescription}
+%
+% \subsection{Package options concerning automatic grouping}
+% \label{sec:auto}
+%
+% Automatic grouping is a feature that automatically adds the thousands and
+% thousandths separator, respectively. The separator will be added after each
+% triplet of digits. Automatic grouping can be enable or disabled with the
+% following options:
+% \begin{mydescription}
+%   \item[\texttt{autothousands}=\meta{value}] automatic grouping of thousands
+%     (digits left to decimal separator)
+%   \item[\texttt{autothousandths}=\meta{value}] automatic grouping of
+%     thousandths (digits right to decimal separator)
+% \end{mydescription}
+%
+% The available \meta{value}s are |true| and |false| (default).
+%
+% Notes on automatic grouping:
+% \begin{enumerate}
+%   \item Grouping of thousandths requires |autothousandths=true| in any case,
+%     as there is no thousandths separator for explicitly specifing separations
+%     in the input.
+%   \item Automatic grouping of thousands will be skipped in a number, if it
+%     contains a thousands separator in the input.
+% \end{enumerate}
+%
+% \subsection{Local style changes}
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\ionumbersstyle}
+% The command |\ionumbersstyle|\marg{option list} changes the global style
+% definitions as specified as package options for the rest of the group.
+% The \meta{option list} may contain any of the package options described in
+% sections~\ref{sec:in}--\ref{sec:auto}. An additional \meta{value} for all
+% \meta{key}s is available inside |\ionumbersstyle| to switch back to the
+% configuration specified as package options: |reset|.
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\ionumbersresetstyle}
+% The command |\ionumbersresetstyle| resets all \meta{value}s to the
+% configuration specified as package options. Actually, it is only a shorthand
+% for\\
+% |\ionumbersstyle{comma=reset,point=reset,decimal=reset,...}|.
+%
+% \subsection{User-defined values for output separators}
+% \label{sec:defs}
+%
+% A user may specify further output separators. Any user-defined \meta{value}s
+% for |thousands|, |decimal|, |thousandths|, and |exponent| can be used like
+% the built-in options in section~\ref{sec:out}.
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\newionumbersthousands}
+% \DescribeMacro{\newionumbersdecimal}
+% \DescribeMacro{\newionumbersthousandths}
+% \DescribeMacro{\newionumbersexponent}
+% The command |\newionumbersthousands|\marg{value}\marg{definition} has two
+% mandatory arguments. The first one is the name of the newly defined
+% \meta{value} for the |thousands| \meta{key} and the second one its
+% definition. The commands |\newionumbersdecimal|, |\newionumbersthousandths|,
+% and |\newionumbersexponent| work the same way for the |decimal|,
+% |thousandths|, and |exponent| \meta{key}, respectively. There is a starred
+% version of |\newionumbersexponent| (called |\newionumbersexponent*|) that
+% typesets the following number as superscript.
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\renewionumbersthousands}
+% \DescribeMacro{\renewionumbersdecimal}
+% \DescribeMacro{\renewionumbersthousandths}
+% \DescribeMacro{\renewionumbersexponent}
+% To redefine an existing \meta{key} definition there are |\renew...| versions
+% of the previously described commands.
+%
+% Notes on definitions:
+% \begin{enumerate}
+%   \item All \meta{definition}s are set inside |\ionumbersoff| (see
+%     section~\ref{sec:feat}). This means that numbers appearing in the
+%     \meta{definition}s are not treated by this package.
+%   \item The value |curr| has an internal meaning and should \emph{not} be
+%     defined/redefined by the user.
+% \end{enumerate}
+%
+% \subsection{Enabling and disabling features}
+% \label{sec:feat}
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\ionumbers}
+% The command |\ionumbers| makes comma, point, signs, and digits active in math
+% mode. This is equivalent to enabling the features of this package. This
+% command applies to the end of the current group.
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\endionumbers}
+% To disable the features by making comma, point, signs, and digits inactive
+% again the command |\endionumbers| can be used. This command applies to the
+% end of the current group.
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\ionumbersoff}
+% The command |\ionumbersoff|\marg{stuff} disables the features only for
+% \meta{stuff}.

+%
+% \section{Implementation}
+%
+% The implementation is briefly described in this section. First of all, we
+% need the \textsf{keyval} package for \meta{key}|=|\meta{value} options:
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\RequirePackage{keyval}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+%
+% ---------------------------------------------------------------------
+%
+% \subsection{Default/global configuration}
+%
+% In principle the definitions of all available \meta{key'}|=|\meta{value'}
+% pairs is contained in the internal macros |\ion@|\meta{key'}|@|\meta{value'}.
+% Setting a package option \meta{key}|=|\meta{value} defines
+% |\ion@|\meta{key}|@reset| to be |\ion@|\meta{key}|@|\meta{value}.
+%
+% The following |if|s will be required to remember, if automatic grouping is
+% enabled.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newif\ifion@autothousands
+\newif\ifion@autothousandths
+%    \end{macrocode}
+%
+% These shorthands are used to define the \meta{key}s for package options
+% and set their \meta{value}s using \textsf{keyval}, respectively.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand*\ion@defpackopts{\define@key{ion@packopts}}
+\newcommand*\ion@setpackopts{\setkeys{ion@packopts}}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+%
+% Next the \meta{key}s are defined.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\ion@defpackopts{comma}{%
+  \def\ion@comma@reset{\csname ion@comma@#1\endcsname}%
+  \def\ion@aftercomma@reset{\csname ion@aftercomma@#1\endcsname}}
+\ion@defpackopts{point}{%
+  \def\ion@point@reset{\csname ion@point@#1\endcsname}%
+  \def\ion@afterpoint@reset{\csname ion@afterpoint@#1\endcsname}}
+\ion@defpackopts{decimal}{\def\ion@decimal@reset{%
+  \csname ion@decimal@#1\endcsname}}
+\ion@defpackopts{thousands}{\def\ion@thousands@reset{%
+  \csname ion@thousands@#1\endcsname}}
+\ion@defpackopts{thousandths}{\def\ion@thousandths@reset{%
+  \csname ion@thousandths@#1\endcsname}}
+\ion@defpackopts{exponent}{\def\ion@exponent@reset{%
+  \csname ion@exponent@#1\endcsname}}
+\ion@defpackopts{autothousands}[true]{\def\ion@autothousandsreset{%
+  \csname ion@autothousands#1\endcsname}\ion@autothousandsreset}
+\ion@defpackopts{autothousandths}[true]{\def\ion@autothousandthsreset{%
+  \csname ion@autothousandths#1\endcsname}\ion@autothousandthsreset}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+%
+% Finally, the default \meta{value}s are set and---if specified by the user as
+% package option---overwritten with the user's configuration.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\ion@setpackopts{comma=default,point=default,thousands=default,%
+  decimal=default,thousandths=default,exponent=default,autothousands=false,%
+  autothousandths=false}
+\DeclareOption*{\expandafter\ion@setpackopts\expandafter{\CurrentOption}}
+\ProcessOptions\relax
+%    \end{macrocode}
+%
+% ---------------------------------------------------------------------
+%
+% \subsection{Local style changes}
+%
+% The currently active configuration of a \meta{key} is stored in the macro
+% |\ion@|\meta{key}|@curr|. The |\ion@|\meta{key}|@curr| macros for all
+% \meta{key}s are defined using the mechanism for local configuration changes.
+%
+% The local options are defined and set---analogous to the package option
+% case---with two shorthands using \textsf{keyval}. The latter is
+% publically available to the user.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand*\ion@deflocopts{\define@key{ion@locopts}}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \begin{macro}{\ionumberstyle}
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand*\ionumbersstyle[1]{\setkeys{ion@locopts}{#1}}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+%
+% Now the \meta{key}s for the local options are defined (just as in the case of
+% the package options):
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\ion@deflocopts{comma}{%
+  \def\ion@comma@curr{\csname ion@comma@#1\endcsname}%

+% The macros |\ion@comma@|\meta{value} contain the output for a comma appearing
+% in the input. Actually, a second set of |\ion@|aftercomma|@|\meta{value}
+% macros is required containing commands to be issued whenever a comma appears.
+% If comma is the decimal separator, the appearance of comma in the input will
+% mean that input of the thousands part is complete and the thousandths
+% thousandths part starts (|\ion@beforedecimalfalse| must be issued). If comma
+% is the thousands separator, the automatic grouping of thousands will be

+% \subsection{Definitions of active characters}
+%
+% The macro definitions for the characters |.,+-0123456789| are hold in the
+% following macros. Number processing works by looking at the next character
+% and performing on or more from the following actions:
+% \begin{itemize}
+%   \item the currently configured output for the character will be added to
+%     the end of |\ion@comma@curr| by |\ion@currnum@pushback|;
+%     |\ion@comma@curr| stores the currently processed number
+%   \item only for comma/point: the corresponding |after...| macro will be
+%     issued
+%   \item the currently processed number will be output via
+%     |\ion@currnum@output|
+%   \item the |e| will be eaten and replaced by its configured output
+% \end{itemize}
+% The conditions in the macro definitions should be self-explanatory for each
+% character.

+% \subsection{Test for conflicts with other packages}
+%
+% First of all we test for some packages known to conflict with
+% \textsf{ionumbers}. This will be done by checking at the begining of the
+% document, if one of these packages has been loaded and an error/warning will
+% be issued.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand*{\ion@conflict@package}[1]{%
+  \@ifpackageloaded{#1}{\PackageError{ionumbers}%
+    {Packages #1 and ionumbers conflict!\MessageBreak%
+    Do not load both packages in the same document}{}}{}}
+\newcommand*{\ion@problem@package}[2]{%
+  \@ifpackageloaded{#1}{\PackageWarning{ionumbers}%
+    {Loading #1 and ionumbers is\MessageBreak%
+    problematic!\MessageBreak%
+    #2}{}}}
+\AtBeginDocument{%
+  \ion@conflict@package{ziffer}%
+  \ion@problem@package{dcolumn}{Use `tabular's inside \string\ionumbersoff}%
+}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+%
+% Next the characters |.,+-0123456789| are checked for macro definitions (by
+% other packages). This way conflicts with other packages may be detected with
+% some probability (but only if the conflicting package has already been
+% loaded).
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand*\ion@conflict@definedtest[1]{%
+  \ifx#1\@undefined\else\PackageWarning{ionumbers}%
+    {Potential conflict with other package(s) detected.\MessageBreak%
+    `\string#1' has already been defined. I will redefine it.\MessageBreak%
+    This might break other package(s)!\MessageBreak}\fi}

+% \subsection{Commands for current number}
+%
+% Numbers are processed by first storing one character after the other in an
+% internal macro to be able to automatically group digits. The basic idea when
+% adding single characters is
+% \begin{itemize}
+%   \item remember, whether we processing the thousands or the thousandths part
+%     of a number (|\ifion@beforedecimal|)
+%   \item calculate the number of digits processed modulo 3 plus 1 in the
+%     current part and
+%     \begin{itemize}
+%       \item for the thousands part: add |\ion@thousands@sepa| for 1,
+%         |\ion@thousands@sepb| for 2, and |\ion@thousands@sepc| for 3 after
+%         a digit
+%       \item for the thousandths part: add |\ion@thousandths@sep| after each
+%         third digit
+%     \end{itemize}
+% \end{itemize}
+% The macros |\ion@thousands@sep...| and |\ion@thousandths@sep| are empty by
+% default. Before outputting the number, the number of digits in the thousands
+% part is known and the correct |\ion@thousands@sep...| macro can be set to the
+% thousands separator for correct grouping.
+%
+% First of all, the |if|s, counters and empty separator macros are initialized.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newif\ifion@beforedecimal\ion@beforedecimaltrue
+\newif\ifion@noexplicitthousands\ion@noexplicitthousandstrue
+\newif\ifion@exponent@superscript\ion@exponent@superscriptfalse
+\newcount\ion@thousands@currpos\ion@thousands@currpos=0
+\newcount\ion@thousandths@currpos\ion@thousandths@currpos=0
+\def\ion@currnum{}
+\def\ion@thousands@sepa{}
+\def\ion@thousands@sepb{}
+\def\ion@thousands@sepc{}
+\def\ion@thousandths@sep{}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+%
+% The macro |\ion@currnum@pushback| adds the character in its argument to
+% the end of |\ion@currnum|. In the starred version adding an empty separator
+% macros is omitted.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand{\ion@currnum@pushback}{\@ifstar{\ion@currnum@pushback@@}%
+  {\ion@currnum@pushback@}}
+\newcommand*{\ion@currnum@pushback@@}[1]{%
+  \ion@addto@macro{\ion@currnum}{#1}%
+}
+\newcommand*{\ion@currnum@pushback@}[1]{%
+  \ifion@beforedecimal%
+    %% push back (empty) separator and character
+    \ifcase\ion@thousands@currpos%
+      \ion@addto@macro{\ion@currnum}{#1}%
+    \or%
+      \ion@addto@macro{\ion@currnum}{\ion@thousands@sepa#1}%
+    \or%
+      \ion@addto@macro{\ion@currnum}{\ion@thousands@sepb#1}%
+    \or%
+      \ion@addto@macro{\ion@currnum}{\ion@thousands@sepc#1}%
+    \fi%
+    %% advance thousands counter
+    \advance\ion@thousands@currpos by1\relax%
+    \ifnum\ion@thousands@currpos>3%
+      \ion@thousands@currpos=1%
+    \fi%
+  \else%
+    %% push back (empty) separator and character
+    \ifnum\ion@thousandths@currpos=3%
+      \ion@addto@macro{\ion@currnum}{\ion@thousandths@sep#1}%
+    \else%
+      \ion@addto@macro{\ion@currnum}{#1}%
+    \fi%

+    \advance\ion@thousandths@currpos by1\relax%
+    \ifnum\ion@thousandths@currpos>3%
+      \ion@thousandths@currpos=1%
+    \fi%
+  \fi%
+}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+%
+% The |\ion@currnum@output| macro defines the empty separator macros (depending
+% on the current configuration), outputs the current number, and resets
+% everything for the next number.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand*{\ion@currnum@output}{%
+  \begingroup%
+    %% set automatic thousands separator
+    \ifion@autothousands%
+      \ifion@noexplicitthousands%

+        \or%
+          \def\ion@thousands@sepa{\ion@thousands@curr}%
+        \or%
+          \def\ion@thousands@sepb{\ion@thousands@curr}%

+      \def\ion@thousandths@sep{\ion@thousandths@curr}%
+    \fi%
+    %% output number
+    \ifion@exponent@superscript%
+      ^{\ion@currnum}%
