Its purpose is twofold: + % a) Show how the functionality of \stepwise can be extended by the user by referring to the macros provided by the + % package. + % b) Show that \steps can appear in any order, and can be made to appear simultaneously in several places (and mention + % the problems this raises). + + % We define a new macro \backstep which will call \step, but the steps will be executed in _reverse_ order. + % This is achieved as follows: + % * We refer to the counter totalsteps, which gives the total number of steps occurring in this argument of + % \stepwise. + % * From this, we subtract the value of the counter stepcommand, which gives the number of this \step command (in the + % order of appearance). + % * The result is compared with the counter step, which gives the number of the current step. + % (the default for `triggering' a \step is the condition \value{step}=\value{stepcommand}) + % + % Note that if the ifthen Package would support this syntax, we could use the bracketed optional argument of \step (as + % in the previous example), defining \backstep like this: + % + % \newcommand{\backstep}{\step[\value{totalsteps}-\value{stepcommand}+1=\value{step}]} + % + % As \ifthenelse doesn't offer this syntax, we have to calculate \value{totalsteps}-\value{stepcommand}+1 in a separate + % counter. This doesn't fit the intended use of \step's optional argument. But hey, there is another syntax ;-) + % If the optional argument is specified with braces (...), then it can contain an arbitrary test which takes two + % arguments and selects the first if it succeeds and the second if it fails. We use this variant here. + % + \newcounter{reversestepno}% + \newcommand{\backstep}{\step(\setcounter{reversestepno}{\value{totalsteps}-\value{stepcommand}+1}\ifthenelse{\value{step}=\value{reversestepno}})}% + % + % We use the custom command \parstepwise which not only wraps the whole argument of \stepwise into a minipage (because + % otherwise vertical spacing goes haywire, don't ask me why), but also gives substance to steps. + % + % If the following \stepwise command would only contain the calls to \backstep, everything would be fine. + % But we _had_ to add something else.... + % In the second part of this application of \stepwise, several steps are executed simultaneously with those executed + % backwards in the first part. This means the value of the counter totalsteps is 14, i.e. the calls to \backstep + % correspond to steps 8...14. To remedy this, we decree that the first step performed shall be number 7, by setting + % the counter firststep accordingly in the optional argument of \stepwise. + % + \parstepwise[\setcounter{firststep}{\value{totalsteps}/2+\value{firststep}}] + {% + \begin{quote} + \Huge + \backstep{Is} \backstep{now} \backstep{it} + \backstep{backwards} \backstep{write} \backstep{to} + \backstep{possible\,!} + + \bigskip + + % By determining explicitly the times at which the following steps are executed, we make them appear + % simultaneously with the preceding flock of \backsteps.
