+
+Presentation
+------------
+
+Defining commands with an optional argument is easy in LaTeXe. There is,
+however, two limitations: there can be at most one optional argument and it must
+be the first one. The xargs package provide extended variants of \newcommand &
+friends, for which these limitations no longer hold.
+
+You may know some tricks in order to define commands with many optional
+arguments, or with last argument optional, etc. Theses tricks are subject to a
+few problems (using arguments in arbitrary order can be difficult, sometimes
+space is gobbled where it should not), which can be difficult to solve. Anyway,
+you don't want to worry about such tricky things while writing a document.
+
+The xargs package provides you with an easy and (hopefully) robust way to define
+such commands, using a nice key=value syntax.

+%
+% \LaTeXe{} permet de définir facilement des commandes ayant un argument
+% optionel. Cependant, il y a deux restrictions : il peut y avoir au plus un
+% argument optionel, et ce doit être le premier. L'extension \xargs{} fournit
+% des versions étendues de \cs{newcommand} et de ses analogues standard, qui ne
+% présentent pas ces restrictions.
+%
+% Vous connaissez peut-être des astuces pour définir des commandes avec
+% plusieurs arguments optionels, ou avec l'argument optionel en dernier. Mais
+% utiliser ces astuces vous force à résoudre certains problèmes (ordre
+% d'utilisation des arguments, gestions des espaces) qui peuvent s'avérer
+% délicats. C'est n'est de toute façon pas le genre de choses auxquelles vous
+% devriez avoir à réfléchir quand vous rédigez un document.
+%
+% L'extension \xargs{} vous fournit donc un moyen pratique et (je l'espère)
+% robuste de définir de telles commandes, avec une syntaxe intuitive de la forme
+% \meta{clé}=\meta{valeur}.

+%
+% \section{Usage}
+%
+% \iffrenchdoc
+%
+% L'extension \xargs{} fournit des analogues de toutes les macros de \LaTeXe{}
+% relatives à la définition de macros. Les macros de \xargs{} ont le même nom
+% que leur analogue standard, mais avec un |x| supplémentaire à la fin : par
+% exemple, \cs{newcommandx}, \cs{renewcommandx} ou encore \cs{newenvironmentx}.
+% Elles ont par ailleurs toutes la même syntaxe. Je ne présenterai donc que
+% \cs{newcommandx}.
+%
+% Commençons par un exemple. Après la définition
+% \begin{center}
+% |\newcommandx*\vect[3][1=1, 3=n]{(#2_{#1},\ldots,#2_{#3})}|
+% \end{center}
+% ^^A j'en profite pour vérifier les espaces parasites...
+% vo\newcommandx*\vect[3][1=1, 3=n]{(#2_{#1},\ldots,#2_{#3})}us
+% pouvez utiliser la macro \cs{vect} d'une des façons suivantes :
+% \begin{center}
+% \begin{tabular}{ll}
+% |$\vect{x}$| & $\vect{x}$ \\
+% |$\vect[0]{y}$| & $\vect[0]{y}$ \\
+% |$\vect{z}[m]$| & $\vect{z}[m]$ \\
+% |$\vect[0]{t}[m]$| & $\vect[0]{t}[m]$ \\
+% \end{tabular}
+% \end{center}
+%
+% Vous avez sans doute compris qu'il s'agit d'une macro prennant trois arguments
+% au total, mais dont le premier et le troisième argument sont optionnels. Ils
+% ont chacun une valeur par défaut (respectivement |1| et |n| ici). Vous pouvez
+% également remarquer que la syntaxe de \cs{newcomandx} est très proche de celle
+% de \cs{newcommand}, la seule différence étant qu'au lieu d'indiquer la valeur
+% par défaut de l'unique argument optionel, vous indiquez ici le numéro de
+% chaque argument à rendre optionel, suivi de sa valeur par défaut.
+%
+% Détaillons maintenant la syntaxe de \cs{newcommandx}, qui, répétons-le, est
+% aussi la syntaxe de toutes les autres commandes de l'extension \xargs.
+% (Pendant qu'on est dans les détails, voici la liste complète de ces commandes
+% : \cs{newcommandx} et \cs{renewcommandx} pour les macros simples,
+% \cs{providecommandx} pour s'assurer qu'une macro existe,
+% \cs{DeclareRobustCommandx} pour (re)définir une macro robuste,
+% \cs{CheckCommandx} pour vérifier le sens d'une macro, \cs{newenvironmentx} et
+% \cs{renewenvironmentx} pour les environnements.)
+%
+% \begin{center}
+% \cs{newcommandx} \meta{|*|} \marg{commande} \oarg{nombre} \oarg{liste}
+% \marg{définition}
+% \end{center}
+%
+% Rappellons brièvement tout ce qui est commun avec la syntaxe usuelle, à savoir
+% tout sauf \meta{liste}. Si une |*| est présente, elle signifie que la macro
+% crée est \emph{courte} au sens de \TeX{}, c'est-à-dire que ses arguments ne
+% peuvent pas contenir de saut de paragraphe (\cs{par} ou ligne vide). La
+% \meta{commande} est n'importe quelle séquence de contrôle, que vous pouvez ou
+% non entourer d'accolades suivant vos goûts. Le \meta{nombre} définit le nombre
+% total d'argument de la \meta{commande}, c'est un entier compris entre $0$ et
+% $9$. La \meta{définition} est un texte équilibré en accolades, et où chaque
+% caractère |#| est suivi soit d'un chiffre représentant un des arguments, soit
+% d'un autre caractère |#|. Les arguments entre crochets sont optionnels.
+%
+% La partie intéressante maintenant. La \meta{liste} est une\ldots{} liste (!)
+% d'éléments de la forme \meta{chiffre}=\meta{valeur}, séparés par des virgules.
+% Le \meta{chiffre} doit être un entier compris entre $1$ et le nombre
+% d'arguments, donné par \meta{nombre}. La \meta{valeur} est n'importe quelle
+% texte équilibré en accolades. Il peut être vide si vous le souhaitez : le
+% signe égal qui le précède est alors optionel. Tous les arguments dont le
+% numéro figure en tant que \meta{chiffre} dans la \meta{liste} seront
+% optionnels, avec pour valeur par défaut celle donnée par la \meta{valeur}
+% correspondante.
+%
+% Concernant l'usage des commandes, notez que, si les arguments $1$ et $2$ (par
+% exemple) sont optionnels, vous ne pouvez spécifier de valeur pour l'argument
+% $2$ si vous n'en avez pas spécifié pour l'argument $1$. Ce comportement est
+% cohérent avec celui de commandes \LaTeX{} existantes, comme \cs{makebox}. Il
+% ne provient pas d'une limitation technique mais surtout de mon incapacité à
+% imaginer une situation où il est vraiment gênant et une syntaxe intelligente
+% pour le contourner. À ce sujet, observez comment j'ai pris soin de séparer
+% les deux arguments optionels par l'argument obligatoire dans le définition de
+% \cs{vect} ci-dessus.
+%
+% Quelques remarques supplémentaires sur la syntaxe de la \meta{liste}, que vous
+% pouvez sauter si vous êtes familiers avec la syntaxe fournie par
+% \package{xkeyval}. Vu que les éléments sont séparés par des virgules, si une
+% \meta{valeur} doit contenir une virgule, il faut entourer la valeur par des
+% accolades pour protéger la virgule. (Cette précaution est également
+% indispensable si la \meta{valeur} contient une accolade fermante.) Ne vous
+% inquiétez pas, cette parie d'accolade sera retirée ultérieurement. D'ailleurs,
+% jusqu'à trois paires d'accolades seront retirées ainsi, et si vous voulez
+% vraiment que votre valeur reste entourée d'acollades, il vous faudra écrire
+% quelque chose comme~|1={{{{\large blabla}}}}|.
+%
+% La dernière particularité de la \meta{liste} que vous devez connaître, est
+% qu'elle ne doit pas contenir de |\par| (ou de ligne vide). C'est le seul point
+% (à ma connaissance) sur lequel les macros d'\xargs{} diffèrent des macros
+% standard. Cette limitation est liée à un choix dans l'implémentation
+% d'\package{xkeyval}, que j'ai eu un peu la flemme de contourner (en fait, je
+% ne suis pas pleinement satisfait de la fiabilité des contournements que je
+% connais). Vous pouvez utiliser \cs{endgraf} à la place de \cs{par} en cas de
+% besoin. Si cette limitation vous gêne, merci de me le faire savoir.
+%
+% Parlons maintenant de trois fonctionnalités d'\xargs{} qui sont plus ou
+% moins cachées mais que j'espère pratiques. La première est que les macros sont
+% crées si possible de façon économique : si vous utilisez \cs{newcommandx} pour
+% définir un macro que vous auriez pu définir avec \cs{newcommand}, \xargs{} le
+% détectera et utilisera automatiquement \cs{newcommand} à la place. Ainsi, vous
+% n'avez à vous soucier de rien et vous pouvez utiliser tout le temps
+% \cs{newcommandx} sans vous poser de questions.
+%
+% La deuxième fonctionnalité est elle aussi transparente, mais comme j'ai pris
+% la peine de la coder, il faut bien que j'en parle. Une macro crée par \xargs{}
+% n'avalera pas les espaces qui la suivent, même si le dernier argument est
+% optionel et n'est pas spécifié. C'est un des avantages d'\xargs{} sur les
+% astuces classiques. Comparez les deux sur l'exemple (idiot) suivant :
+% \begin{quote}
+% |\newcommand\compliment[1]{#1 est gentil\complinterne}|\\
+% |\newcommand\complinterne[1][le]{#1}|\\
+% |\newcommandx\complimentx[2][2=le]{#1 est gentil#2}|
+% \end{quote}
+% \newcommand\compliment[1]{#1 est gentil\complinterne}
+% \newcommand\complinterne[1][le]{#1}
+% \newcommandx\complimentx[2][2=le]{#1 est gentil#2}
+% \begin{center}\begin{tabular}{ll}
+% |\compliment{Clothilde} et\ldots| &
+% \compliment{Clothilde} et\ldots \\
+% |\complimentx{Clothilde} et\ldots| &
+% \complimentx{Clothilde} et\ldots \\
+% \end{tabular}\end{center}
+% Observez comme l'espace a été avalé de façon indésirable dans le premier cas.
+%
+% Enfin, les macros d'\xargs{} essayent de se comporter en tous points comme
+% leurs homoloques standard. Il y a deux exceptions : la première est que vous
+% ne vous pouvez pas utiliser \cs{par} comme vous voulez, je l'ai dit plus haut,
+% et je le regrette. La deuxième réside dans certains comportements de
+% \cs{CheckCommandx}. En effet, à l'heure où j'écris ces lignes,
+% \cs{CheckCommand} souffre de deux bugs (voir
+% \href{http://www.latex-project.org/cgi-bin/ltxbugs2html?pr=latex/3971&introduction=yes&state=open}
+% {PR/3971}) que j'espère avoir évités dans \cs{CheckCommandx}.

+%
+% Vous savez maintenant tout ce qu'il y a à savoir sur l'utilisation de
+% \xargs{}. Si vous souhaitez vous pencher sur son implémentation, il vous
+% faudra lire les commentaires en anglais car je n'ai pas eu le courage de
+% commenter mon code en deux langues. Si vous découvrez des bugs, merci de me
+% les signaler. Si vous trouvez cette extension utile, ça me ferait aussi
+% plaisir de le savoir.

+% \end{center}
+%
+% \else
+%
+% The \xargs{} package defines an extended variant for every \LaTeX{} macro
+% related to macro definition. \xargs{}'s macro are named after their \LaTeX{}
+% couterparts, just adding an |x| at end, e.g. \cs{newcommandx},
+% \cs{renewcommandx} or \cs{newenvironmentx}. Since they all share the same
+% syntax (closely ressembling \cs{newcommand}'s one), I will only explain with
+% \cs{newcommandx}.
+%
+% Let's begin with the following example.
+% \begin{center}
+% |\newcommandx*\vect[3][1=1, 3=n]{(#2_{#1},\ldots,#2_{#3})}|
+% \end{center}
+% \newcommandx*\vect[3][1=1, 3=n]{(#2_{#1},\ldots,#2_{#3})}
+% \begin{center}
+% \begin{tabular}{ll}
+% |$\vect{x}$| & $\vect{x}$ \\
+% |$\vect[0]{y}$| & $\vect[0]{y}$ \\
+% |$\vect{z}[m]$| & $\vect{z}[m]$ \\
+% |$\vect[0]{t}[m]$| & $\vect[0]{t}[m]$ \\
+% \end{tabular}
+% \end{center}
+%
+% You surely understood \cs{vect} is now a macro with 3 arguments, the first and
+% third being optional. They both have their own default value (resp.\@ |1| and
+% |n|). You maybe noticed how \cs{newcommandx}'s syntax closely ressembles
+% \cs{newcommand}'s syntax: The only difference is, instead of the default value
+% of the only optional argument, you have to specifiy the number of the optional
+% arguments, followed by a = and their default value.
+%
+% Now let's have a closer look at \cs{newcommandx}'s syntax, shared by all other
+% \xargs{} commands. (While dealing with details, here is the complete list of
+% those: \cs{newcommandx} and \cs{renewcommandx} for simple macros,
+% \cs{providecommandx} to make sure a macro exists, \cs{DeclareRobustCommandx}
+% to (re)define a robust macro, \cs{CheckCommandx} to check if a macro has the
+% correct meaning, \cs{newenvironmentx} and \cs{renewenvironmentx} for
+% environments.)
+%
+% \begin{center}
+% \cs{newcommandx} \meta{|*|} \marg{command} \oarg{number} \oarg{list}
+% \marg{definition}
+% \end{center}
+%
+% Everything here is the same as usual \cs{newcommand} syntax, except
+% \meta{list}. Let's recall this briefly. The optional |*| make \LaTeX{} define
+% a ``short'' macro, that is a macro that won't accept a paragraph break
+% (\cs{par} or an empty line) inside its argument, otherwise the macro will be
+% long. \meta{command} is any control sequence, and can but need not be
+% enclosed in braces, as you like. The \meta{number} specifies how many
+% arguments your macro will take (including optional ones): It should be a
+% non-negative integer, and at most $9$. The macro's \meta{definition} is a
+% balanced text, where every |#| sign must be followed with a number, thus
+% representing an argument, or with another |#| sign. The two arguments
+% \meta{number} and \meta{list} are optionals.
+%
+% Now comes the new and funny part. \meta{list} is a coma-separated list of
+% element \meta{digit}=\meta{value}. Here, \meta{digit} should be non-zero, and
+% at most \meta{number} (the total number of arguments). The \meta{value} is any
+% balanced text, and can be empty. If so, the |=| sign becomes optional: You
+% only need to write \meta{digit} if you want the \meta{digit}th argument to be
+% optional, with empty default value. Of course, every argument whose number is
+% a \meta{digit} in the \meta{list} becomes optional, with \meta{value} as its
+% default value.
+%
+% While using a macro with many optional arguments, keep in mind the following
+% fact. If arguments, say $1$ and $2$, are optional, then if you specify a value
+% for only one optional argument, it will be used for argument $1$, and argument
+% $2$ will be considered non-specified (thus its default value will be used).
+% This behaviour is consistent with existing \LaTeX{}'s command, like
+% \cs{makebox}. It isn't a technical limitation, I just couldn't imagine a
+% better way to do. By the way, please notice the way I separated the two
+% optional arguments from the exemple above in order to be able to use them
+% independantly.
+%
+% If you are not very familiar with some aspects of the syntax provided by the
+% \package{xkeyval} package, you may be interested in the following remarks
+% about the syntax of \meta{list}. Since \meta{list} is coma-separated, if you
+% want to use a coma inside a \meta{value}, you need to enclose it (either the
+% coma or the whole \meta{value}) in braces. The same applies if you want to use
+% a closing square bracket inside the \meta{list}. Don't worry about those
+% unwanted braces, they will be removed later. Actually, \package{xkeyval}
+% removes up to $3$ braces set: If you really want braces around a value, you
+% need to type something like |1={{{{\large stuff}}}}|.
+%
+% The last thing you (maybe) need to know about \meta{list} is a little
+% limitation of \xargs{}, inherited from \package{xkeyval}, which I didn't
+% managed to work around (actually, I know a way to do it, but it fails in rare
+% cases involving \cs{let}ing an active character equal to a brace, so I decided
+% not to include it). So what is this problem? It's just you cannot use \cs{par}
+% (or an empty line) in the \meta{list}. If you need a paragraph break in a
+% \meta{value}, try \cs{endgraf}. If this issue really bothers you, please let
+% me know.
+%
+% There's only three features or \xargs{} not yet discussed. Since they are all
+% ``good'' features, you may not need to read the end of the documentation, but
+% since I made the effort to implement it, I want to talk about it. First one is
+% that macros are made in a minimalistic way: If you use \cs{newcommandx} to
+% create a macro you could have made with \cs{newcommand}, \xargs{} will notice
+% and use \cs{newcommand} internally. So, you can allways use \cs{newcommandx}
+% without bothering.
+%
+% Second feature consist in avoiding a possible problem with spaces after a
+% macro whose last argument is optional. If defined in a naive way, such macros
+% would gobble spaces after them when the optional argument is not specified,
+% but macros created with \xargs{} don't, so you don't need to take any special
+% care about spaces.
+%
+% Last, \xargs{} macros try to behave exactly as standard \LaTeX{} macros do. As
+% far as I know, there are only two exceptions. I allready mentionned the first,
+% which is the problem with \cs{par} in default value, due to \package{xkeyval}.
+% The other one is that, right now, the current implementation of
+% \cs{CheckCommand} has some problems (see
+% \href{http://www.latex-project.org/cgi-bin/ltxbugs2html?pr=latex/3971&introduction=yes&state=open}
+% {PR/3971}). I tried not to reproduce them in \cs{CheckCommandx}.
+%
+% \fi
+%
+% \StopEventually{}
+%
+% \section{Implementation}
+%
+% If you are familiar with the way \LaTeXe{} manages macros with an optional
+% argument, then you will probably not be surprised by the \xargs{} way.
+% Indeed, with \LaTeXe{}, a command \cs{foo} defined with, say
+% |\newcommand*\foo[2][bar]{baz}| is implemented as the pair:
+% \begin{quote}
+% |\foo=macro:->\@protected@testopt\foo\\foo{bar}| \\
+% |\\foo=macro:[#1]#2->baz|
+% \end{quote}
+% With \xargs's \cs{newcommandx}, a macro \cs{vect} as above is
+% implemented as:
+% \begin{quote}
+% |\vect=macro:->\@protected@testopt@xargs\vect\\vect|\\
+% \hspace*{1em}|{\xargs@test@opt{0},\xargs@put@arg,\xargs@test@opt{n},}|\\
+% |\\vect=macro:[#1]#2[#3]->(#2_{#1},\ldots ,#2_{#3})|
+% \end{quote}
+%
+% This is very similar: the ``real'' macro is the one whose name begins with a
+% \cs{} and the macro called by the user just checks the protection context and
+% collects the arguments for the internal macro, using the default value if none
+% is given for the optional argument(s). However, the analogy ends here, since
+% in ``normal'' \LaTeX{} there is only one optional argument, but
+% \xargs{} commands need more information about optional arguments,
+% namely their position, and not only the default values.
+%
+% This information is stored as a coma-separated list of ``actions'', each
+% action consisting of either the single command \cs{xargs@put@arg}, which
+% denotes a mandatory argument and makes \LaTeX{} grab it and add it to the list
+% of arguments to be passed to the internal macro, or \cs{xargs@test@opt} with
+% argument the default value, which denotes an optional argument. In the later
+% case, the presence of the optional argument is checked in a way slightly
+% differing from \LaTeXe's \cs{@ifnextchar}, then the relevant value added to
+% the arguments list.
+%
+% All this argument grabing job is done with a loop that read and executes each
+% action from the originating list, and concurrently builds an argument list
+% such as |[0]{x}[m]| to be passed to |\\vect| for example. The first part of
+% the code consists of those macros used for the argument grabbing and execution
+% of internal command process.

+% First, load the \package{xkeyval} package for it's nice key=value syntax.

+%
+% \begin{macro}{\xargs@max}
+% \begin{macro}{\xargs@temp}
+% \begin{macro}{\xargs@toksa}
+% \begin{macro}{\xargs@toksb}
+% Then allocate a few registers and make sure the name of our private scratch
+% macro is free for use. Note that for certain uses, we really need a \cs{toks}
+% register because the string used can possibly contain |#| characters.
+% Sometimes I also use a \cs{toks} register instead of a macro just for ease of
+% use (writing less \cs{expandafter}s).
+% \begin{macrocode}

+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\@protected@testop@xargs}
+% This first macros closely resembles kernel's \cs{@protected@testopt}
+% (similarity in their names is intentional, see \cs{CheckCommandx}). It just
+% checks the protection context and call the real argument grabbing macro.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand*\@protected@testopt@xargs[1]{%
+ \ifx\protect\@typeset@protect
+ \expandafter\xargs@read
+ \else
+ \@x@protect#1%

+% \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\xargs@read}
+% Initiate the loop. \cs{xargs@toksa} will become the call to the internal macro
+% with all arguments, \cs{xargs@toksb} contains the actions list for arguments
+% grabbing.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand*\xargs@read[2]{%
+ \xargs@toksa{#1}%

+ \xargs@continue}
+% \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\xargs@continue}
+% \begin{macro}{\xargs@pick@next}
+% Each iteration of the loop consist of two steps: pick the next action (and
+% remove it from the list), and execute it. When there is no more action in the
+% list, it means the arguments grabbing stage is over, and it's time to execute
+% the internal macro by expanding then contents of \cs{xargs@toksa}.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand\xargs@continue{%
+ \expandafter\xargs@pick@next\the\xargs@toksb,\@nil

+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\xargz@put@arg}
+% \begin{macro}{\xargz@test@opt}
+% \begin{macro}{\xargz@put@opt}
+% Now have a look at the argument grabbing macros. The first one,
+% \cs{xargs@put@arg}, just reads an undelimited argument in the input stack and
+% add it to the arguments list. \cs{xargs@testopt} checks if the next non-space
+% token is a square bracket to decide if it have to read an argument from the
+% input or use the default value, and takes care to enclose it in square
+% brackets.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand\xargs@put@arg[1]{%

+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\xargs@ifnextchar}
+% \begin{macro}{\xargs@ifnch}
+% \begin{macro}{\xargs@xifnch}
+% You probably noticed that \cs{xargs@testopt} doesn't use kernel's
+% \cs{@ifnextchar}. The reason is, I don't want macros to gobble space if their
+% last argument is optional and not specified. Indeed, it would be strange to
+% have spaces after |\vect[0]{x}| gobbled. So the modified version of
+% \cs{@ifnextchar} below works like kernel's one, except that it remembers how
+% many spaces it gobbles and restitutes them in case the next non-space
+% character isn't a match.
+% \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand\xargs@ifnextchar[3]{%
+ \let\xargs@temp\empty

+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+% \bigskip
+%
+% Okay, we're finished with the execution related macros. Now let's start with
+% stuff for the definition of macros. The idea is to collect through
+% \package{xkeyval} at most 9 actions numbered 1 to \cs{xargs@max} (the total
+% number of arguments) of the type seen above, then structure them in a
+% coma-separated list for use in the user macro's definition. Special care is
+% taken to define simpler macros in the two special cases where all arguments,
+% possibly except the first one, are mandatory (standard \LaTeXe{} cases).
+%
+% \begin{macro}{\@namenewc} \begin{macro}{\xargs@action@1}

+% So our first task is to define container macros for these at most nine

+% \begin{macro}{\xargs@def@key}
+% The next macro will define key for us. Its first argument is the key's

+% \end{macrocode}
+% If the key number is correct, it may be that the user is trying to use it

+% The second argument just consist in setting the value for some \cs{if} wich

+% \begin{macro}{\xargs@add@args}
+% Now our goal is to build two lists from our up to nine actions macros. The
+% first is the coma-separated list of actions allready discussed. The second
+% is the parameter text for use in the definition on the internal macro, for
+% example |[#1]#2[#3]|. The next macro takes the content of a
+% \cs{xargs@action@X} macro for argument and adds the corresponding items to
+% this lists. It checks if the first token of its parameter is \cs{xargs@testopt}
+% in order to know if the |#n| has to be enclosed in square brackets.

+% \begin{macrocode}
+\@ifdefinable\xargs@process@keys{%

+% Some initialisations. We work inside a group so that the default values for

+% \end{macrocode}
+% Now we need to address a special case: If only the first argument is
+% optional, we use \LaTeXe's standard \cs{newcommand}, and we dont need an
+% actions list like the one just build, but only the default value for the first
+% argument. In this case, we extract this value from \cs{xargs@action@1} by

+% \begin{macro}{\xargs@CheckC}
+% Here come the major difference with the kernel version. If |\\reserved@a| is

+% |\@protected@testopt@xargs \foo \\foo|
+% \end{quote}
+% Since I'm to lazy to really check this, the \cs{xargs@check@d} macro only
+% checks if the \cs{meaning} of \cs{foo} begins with \cs{@protected@test@opt}
+% (without a space after it). It does this using a macro with delimited
