The package is originally intended for solving a notational issue regarding the representation of abstract-machine-like calculi in proof theory and computer science. \paragraph{General use} The package also defines \texttt{\textbackslash{}perfectunary} and \texttt{\textbackslash{}perfectbinary} for defining custom delimiters that behave similarly to the above ones. These commands should be considered when facing the need of nested delimiters that consistently grow regardless of the contents. (See ``Advanced Use''.)\medskip{} If the package causes incompatibility errors, refer to the option \texttt{nomathstyle} below. \section{Example} \subsection{Using \texttt{perfectcut.sty}} \global\long\def\cut#1#2{\cutprimitive{#1}{#2}} \noindent \texttt{\footnotesize{}\textbackslash{}usepackage\{perfectcut\}}~\\ \texttt{\footnotesize{}\textbackslash{}let\textbackslash{}cut\textbackslash{}perfectcut}{\footnotesize \par} \begin{center} \fbox{\begin{minipage}[t]{0.8\columnwidth}% The following states the idempotency of an adjunction: \[ \cut t{\mt x.\cut{\mu\alpha.\cut ue}{e'}}=\cut{\mu\alpha.\cut t{\mt x.\cut ue}}{e'} \] The following states the commutativity of a strong monad: \[ \cut t{\mt x.\cut u{\mt y.\cut ve}}=\cut u{\mt y.\cut t{\mt x.\cut ve}} \] Using \texttt{\textbackslash{}underline} to mark redexes: \begin{align*} & \delta(V,x.y,x.y)\\ & =\mu{\star}.\cut V{\perfectcase{\mt x.\underline{\cut y{\star}}}{\mt x.\underline{\cut y{\star}}}}\\ & =\mu{\star}.\cut V{\underline{\perfectcase{\mt x.\cut{\iota_{1}(x)}{\mt z.\cut y{\star}}}{\mt x.\cut{\iota_{2}(x)}{\mt z.\cut y{\star}}}}}\\ & =\mu{\star}.\cut V{\underline{\mt z.}\cut y{\star}}\\ & =\mu{\star}.\cut y{\star}=y \end{align*} % \end{minipage}} \par\end{center} \subsection{Using \texttt{\textbackslash{}left}, \texttt{\textbackslash{}middle} and \texttt{\textbackslash{}right} instead} \global\long\def\fakecut#1#2{\left\langle #1\middle|\mkern-2mu\middle|#2\right\rangle } \noindent \texttt{\footnotesize{}\textbackslash{}renewcommand\{\textbackslash{}cut\}{[}2{]}\{\textbackslash{}left\textbackslash{}langle \#1\textbackslash{}middle|\textbackslash{}mkern-2mu\textbackslash{}middle|\#2\textbackslash{}right\textbackslash{}rangle\}}{\footnotesize \par} \begin{center} \fbox{\parbox[t]{0.8\columnwidth}{% The following states the idempotency of an adjunction: \[ \fakecut t{\mt x.\fakecut{\mu\alpha.\fakecut ue}{e'}}=\fakecut{\mu\alpha.\fakecut t{\mt x.\fakecut ue}}{e'} \] The following states the commutativity of a strong monad: \[ \fakecut t{\mt x.\fakecut u{\mt y.\fakecut ve}}=\fakecut u{\mt y.\fakecut t{\mt x.\fakecut ve}} \] Using \texttt{\textbackslash{}underline} to mark redexes: \begin{align*} & \delta(V,x.y,x.y)\\ & =\mu{\star}.\fakecut V{\left[\mt x.\underline{\fakecut y{\star}}\middle|\mt x.\underline{\fakecut y{\star}}\right]}\\ & =\mu{\star}.\fakecut V{\underline{\left[\mt x.\fakecut{\iota_{1}(x)}{\mt z.\fakecut y{\star}}\middle|\mt x.\fakecut{\iota_{2}(x)}{\mt z.\fakecut y{\star}}\right]}}\\ & =\mu{\star}.\fakecut V{\underline{\mt z.}\fakecut y{\star}}\\ & =\mu{\star}.\fakecut y{\star}=y \end{align*} % }} \par\end{center} As we can see, the legibility of the above rendering is hampered by multiple issues: the delimiters grow inconsistently, vertical bars have the wrong size, accents or underlines uselessly make the delimiters grow, and the spacing could be improved. The package is designed to fix these issues. \section{Advanced use} The package lets you define your own growing delimiters. Let us first stress that the size of these delimiters is entirely determined by the number of nestings and is insensitive to the size of the contents. If you need the size of the contents to be taken into account then it is probably sufficient to use \texttt{\textbackslash{}left} and \texttt{\textbackslash{}right} while tweaking \texttt{\textbackslash{}delimitershortfall} and \texttt{\textbackslash{}delimiterfactor}. \subsection{Example} The following displays a set $\{\#1\mid\#2\}$ with delimiters appropriately sized if there are other \texttt{\textbackslash{}perfectcommands} inside \texttt{\#1} and \texttt{\#2}.\medskip{} \texttt{\footnotesize{}\textbackslash{}def\textbackslash{}Set\#1\#2\{\textbackslash{}perfectbinary\{IncreaseHeight\}\textbackslash{}\{|\textbackslash{}\}\{\#1\textbackslash{}mathrel\{\}\}\{\textbackslash{}mathrel\{\}\#2\}\}}{\footnotesize \par} \texttt{\footnotesize{}\textbackslash{}{[}\textbackslash{}Set\{\textbackslash{}perfectparens\{a\}\}\{\textbackslash{}perfectparens\{b\}\}\textbackslash{}{]}}{\footnotesize \par} \def\Set#1#2{\perfectbinary{IncreaseHeight}\{|\}{#1\mathrel{}}{\mathrel{}#2}} \[ \fbox{\ensuremath{\Set{\perfectparens{a}}{\perfectparens{b}}}} \] \subsection{Custom delimiters} \begin{description} \item [{\texttt{\textbackslash{}perfectunary\#1\#2\#3\#4}}] Displays \texttt{\#2} \texttt{\#4} \texttt{\#3} where \texttt{\#2} and \texttt{\#3} are delimiters. The delimiters grow according to \texttt{\#1} which must be one of \texttt{IncreaseHeight}, \texttt{CurrentHeight}, or \texttt{CurrentHeightPlusOne}. \item [{\texttt{\textbackslash{}perfectbinary\#1\#2\#3\#4\#5\#6}}] Displays \texttt{\#2} \texttt{\#5} \texttt{\#3} \texttt{\#6} \texttt{\#4} where \texttt{\#2}, \texttt{\#3} and \texttt{\#4} are delimiters. The delimiters grow according to \texttt{\#1} which must be one of \texttt{IncreaseHeight}, \texttt{CurrentHeight}, or \texttt{CurrentHeightPlusOne}. \end{description} \subsection{Stock delimiters} The stock commands behave as follow: \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{>{\raggedright}p{11em}lll} \toprule Command & Produces & Growth & Inserts skips\tabularnewline \midrule \texttt{\textbackslash{}perfectcut\{\#1\}\{\#2\}} & $\perfectcut{\#1}{\#2}$ & \texttt{IncreaseHeight} & Yes\tabularnewline \texttt{\textbackslash{}perfectbra\{\#1\}} & $\perfectbra{\#1}$ & \texttt{IncreaseHeight} & Yes\tabularnewline \texttt{\textbackslash{}perfectket\{\#1\}} & $\perfectket{\#1}$ & \texttt{IncreaseHeight} & Yes\tabularnewline \texttt{\textbackslash{}perfectcase\{\#1\}} & $\perfectcase{\#1}{\#2}$ & \texttt{CurrentHeightPlusOne} & Yes\tabularnewline \texttt{\textbackslash{}perfectbrackets\{\#1\}} & $\perfectbrackets{\#1}$ & \texttt{CurrentHeightPlusOne} & Only inside\tabularnewline \texttt{\textbackslash{}perfectparens\{\#1\}} & $\perfectparens{\#1}$ & \texttt{CurrentHeight} & Only inside\tabularnewline \texttt{\textbackslash{}perfectunary\{\#1\}}~\\ \texttt{~\{\#2\}\{\#3\}\{\#4\}} & $\#2\,\#4\,\#3$ & \#1 & No\tabularnewline \texttt{\textbackslash{}perfectbinary\{\#1\}}~\\ \texttt{~\{\#2\}\{\#3\}\{\#4\}\{\#5\}\{\#6\}} & $\#2\,\#5\,\#3\,\#6\,\#4$ & \#1 & No\tabularnewline \bottomrule \end{tabular} \par\end{center} \section{Options} \subsection{Option \texttt{nomathstyle}} The use of \texttt{\textbackslash{}currentmathstyle} from the package \texttt{mathstyle} prevents the exponential blowup in recursions that would occur if we used \texttt{\textbackslash{}mathpalette} instead. To record the \texttt{\textbackslash{}currentmath\-style}, \texttt{mathstyle} redefines many primitives and is therefore a source of incompatibilities. If you run into such issues, please refer to the \texttt{mathstyle} manual. If you want to disable the loading of \texttt{mathstyle}, use the \texttt{nomathstyle} option. With the \texttt{nomathstyle} option, the style is set to \texttt{\textbackslash{}cutstyle}, which you must define by hand to be \texttt{\textbackslash{}displaystyle}, \texttt{\textbackslash{}textstyle }(default), \texttt{\textbackslash{}scriptstyle}, \texttt{\textbackslash{}scriptscriptstyle}. This means that cuts in subscripts and superscripts do not have the proper size unless \texttt{\textbackslash{}cutstyle }is redefined. \subsection{Option \texttt{realVert}} With the option \texttt{realVert}, the double bars are obtained with the \texttt{\textbackslash{}Vert} command. Without it, two \texttt{\textbackslash{}vert} symbols are used and their spacing is controlled with \texttt{\textbackslash{}cutinterbarskip}. But, if \texttt{realVert} is not activated, then a penalty (\texttt{binoppenalty}) is added, such that $\cut{\mu\alpha.\cut ab}{\mt x.\cut cd}$ splits across lines. \subsection{Option \texttt{fixxits}} For some reason that the author was unable to identify, the vertical alignment is wrong with the Opentype XITS math font with XeTeX. The option \texttt{fixxits} fixes this behaviour. \subsection{Customisation} The following mu-skips can be redefined in your preamble: \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{ll} \toprule Command & Defines the spacing...\tabularnewline \midrule \texttt{\textbackslash{}cutbarskip=5.0mu plus 8mu minus 2.0mu} & around bars\tabularnewline \texttt{\textbackslash{}cutangleskip=0.0mu plus 8mu minus 1.0mu} & around delimiters (inside)\tabularnewline \texttt{\textbackslash{}cutangleouterskip=0.0mu plus 8mu minus 0mu} & around delimiters (outside)\tabularnewline \texttt{\textbackslash{}cutinterbarskip=0.8mu plus 0mu minus 0mu} & between bars (excl. \texttt{realVert})\tabularnewline \bottomrule \end{tabular} \par\end{center} \noindent (1 mu equals $1/18$ of an em in the current math font.) \section{Reimplementation of fixed-size delimiters} In addition, I provide the following corrections and generalisations of \texttt{\textbackslash{}big},\texttt{\textbackslash{}bigg}, etc. Why not using the latter? Because both the plain \TeX{} and the \texttt{amsmath} versions can be incorrect when changing the math font, the font size, the math style or \texttt{\textbackslash{}delimitershortfall}. Moreover, Opentype math fonts sometimes offer more than five sizes. For this package we need a robust solution. \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{lll} \toprule Command & Example & \tabularnewline \midrule \multicolumn{3}{l}{\emph{\#1-th size of delimiter \#2}}\tabularnewline \texttt{\textbackslash{}nthleft\{\#1\}\{\#2\} } & \texttt{\textbackslash{}nthleft\{2\}(} & $\nthleft{2}($\tabularnewline\addlinespace[0.1em] \texttt{\textbackslash{}nthmiddle\{\#1\}\{\#2\}} & \texttt{\textbackslash{}nthmiddle\{2\}\textbackslash{}Vert} & $\nthmiddle{2}\Vert$\tabularnewline\addlinespace[0.1em] \texttt{\textbackslash{}nthright\{\#1\}\{\#2\}} & \texttt{\textbackslash{}nthright\{2\})} & $\nthright{2})$\tabularnewline\addlinespace[0.1em] \multicolumn{1}{l}{\emph{delimiter \#2 of height at least \#1}} & & \tabularnewline\addlinespace[0.1em] \texttt{\textbackslash{}lenleft\{\#1\}\{\#2\}} & \texttt{\textbackslash{}lenleft\{3.2mm\}{[}} & $\lenleft{3mm}[$\tabularnewline\addlinespace[0.1em] \texttt{\textbackslash{}lenmiddle\{\#1\}\{\#2\}} & \texttt{\textbackslash{}lenmiddle\{3.2mm\}|} & $\lenmiddle{3mm}|$\tabularnewline\addlinespace[0.1em] \texttt{\textbackslash{}lenright\{\#1\}\{\#2\}} & \texttt{\textbackslash{}lenright\{3.2mm\}{]}} & $\lenright{3mm}]$\tabularnewline\addlinespace[0.1em] \multicolumn{3}{l}{\emph{delimiter \#2 of height exactly \#1 obtained by scaling the above one}}\tabularnewline\addlinespace[0.1em] \texttt{\textbackslash{}reallenleft\{\#1\}\{\#2\}} & \texttt{\textbackslash{}reallenleft\{3.2mm\}{[}} & $\reallenleft{3mm}[$\tabularnewline\addlinespace[0.1em] \texttt{\textbackslash{}reallenmiddle\{\#1\}\{\#2\}} & \texttt{\textbackslash{}reallenmiddle\{3.2mm\}|} & $\reallenmiddle{3mm}|$\tabularnewline\addlinespace[0.1em] \texttt{\textbackslash{}reallenright\{\#1\}\{\#2\}} & \texttt{\textbackslash{}reallenright\{3.2mm\}{]}} & $\reallenright{3mm}]$\tabularnewline \bottomrule \end{tabular} \par\end{center} \subsection{Example with \texttt{\textbackslash{}nthleft}} \texttt{\footnotesize{}\textbackslash{}nrthleft0{[}\textbackslash{}nthleft1{[}\textbackslash{}nthleft2{[}\textbackslash{}nthleft3{[}\textbackslash{}nthleft4{[}\textbackslash{}nthleft5{[}\textbackslash{}nthleft6{[}}{\footnotesize \par} \[ \nthleft0(\nthleft1(\nthleft2(\nthleft3(\nthleft4(\nthleft5(\nthleft6( \] \subsection{Example with \texttt{\textbackslash{}big},\texttt{\textbackslash{}Big},\texttt{\textbackslash{}bigg},\texttt{\textbackslash{}Bigg}} \texttt{\footnotesize{}{[}\textbackslash{}big{[}\textbackslash{}Big{[}\textbackslash{}bigg{[}\textbackslash{}Bigg{[}}{\footnotesize \par} \[ (\big(\Big(\bigg(\Bigg( \] The above uses the \texttt{\textbackslash{}big} commands from the \texttt{amsmath} package. The \texttt{amsmath} package corrects issues with the original \TeX{} commands, but I could still notice inconsistencies, such as \texttt{\textbackslash{}big} starting at size 2, under some font combinations. \texttt{\textbackslash{}nthleft}, \texttt{\textbackslash{}nthright} and \texttt{\textbackslash{}nthmiddle} are implemented in a more robust way. \section{License} This work may be distributed and/or modified under the conditions of the \LaTeX{} Project Public License, either version 1.3 of this license or (at your option) any later version.
