First, a TABstack cell has +no precise understanding up what content precedes it in the cell to the immediate left, nor what +content follows it in the cell to the immediate right. It does, however know the overall height/depth +of the content across the whole row and creates a vertical ``strut'' of that height and depth, which must, +in some way, be applied to every cell in the row. + +This vertical strut can be applied to the cell immediately +prior to or immediately following the cell content, as we shall see. However, such an action will +have an effect on math operators and relations found at the leading or trailing ends of the cell +content. + +Math operators and relations can be categorized as unary or binary; some +may be both, depending on their usage context, such as the minus sign. When used as $a-b$, the +relation is binary, because it connects $a$ and $b$ in a mathematical relationship. Note how space +appears both before and after the minus sign. Alternatively, when used as $-\pi$, the minus sign +operates only upon what follows, in this case $\pi$, to produce a negative. Note how no space is +introduced between the minus sign and $\pi$. + +Because a TABstack cell has no intimate knowledge of the adjacent cell content, it is up to +the user to employ his tabbing seperators in a way that produces the desired result. By default, +\textsf{tabstackengine} will place the strut after the cell content. This means that any trailing +math operator in a cell will present itself in its binary form (regardless of what comes in the +cell to the right), because the strut will appear as trailing data against which the operator can +be set. Similarly, any leading math operator will present itself as unary (regardless of what +content appears in the cell to the left). + +Thus, \verb|\tabbedLongstack{y =&-mx +& b}| will present as +{\tabbedLongstack{y =&-mx +& b}}, by default, +with the trailing equal and plus signs as binary, and the leading minus sign as unary. The package +can reverse the default with the following declarative modes: +\verb|\TABunaryRight| (identical to \verb|\TABbinaryLeft|); as well +as \verb|\TABbinary|, which will present both leading \textit{and} trailing operators in +their binary form. The default can be restored with +\verb|\TABunaryLeft| (identical to \verb|\TABbinaryRight|). + +Without changing any of the package strut modes, an operator, such as minus, can be +forced into its unary mode +by enclosing it in braces: \verb|{-}|. Likewise, it can be forced into its binary mode by +placing empty braces on both sides of it: \verb|{}-{}|. + \subsection*{The Macros \texttt{\textbackslash readTABrow}, \texttt{\textbackslash TABcell(s)}, and \texttt{\textbackslash TABstrut}} @@ -343,119 +387,13 @@ mode\mdseries.
