It should be backwards-compatible with \LaTeXe\ counters. \end{abstract} \tableofcontents \section{Documentation} This package is intended to complement the \LaTeXe\ counter macros with \LaTeX3 counterparts. The new macros use the same internal counters and macros as the \LaTeXe\ ones, and as such they should be fully backwards-compatible. The package is not terribly complicated but could be useful in adapting (or rewriting) \LaTeXe\ packages or document styles to \LaTeX3 standards. \Warning{The package is not backwards-compatible as it is now: the resetting of child counters is not implemented in a backwards-% compatible way.} \subsection{Options} \Option{replace}\WithValues{true,false}\AndDefault{false} There is only one option, \opt{replace}, which will make the package replace the original \LaTeXe\ public API macros with new, \LaTeX3-% based ones (with the same API). Its default value is \texttt{false}. \subsection{Public API} The public \LaTeX3 API has macros corresponding to the macros of the \LaTeXe\ API according to \vref{tab:macros}. In addition to the direct replacements there are also a number of new macros which are missing in the original \LaTeXe\ API. \begin{table}[tbp] \centering \caption{\LaTeX3 counterparts of the \LaTeXe\ counter macros} \label{tab:macros} \begin{tabular}{ll} \toprule \textbf{\LaTeXe} & \textbf{\LaTeX3} \\ \midrule \cs*{newcounter} & \cs*{ctr_new:n} \\ \cs*{stepcounter} & \cs*{ctr_gincr:n} \\ \cs*{refstepcounter} & \cs*{ctr_ref_gincr:n} \\ \cs*{addtocounter} & \cs*{ctr_gadd:nn} \\ \cs*{setcounter} & \cs*{ctr_gset:nn} \\ \cs*{value} & \cs*{ctr_use:n} \\ \cs*{arabic} & \cs*{ctr_use_arabic:n} \\ \cs*{alph} & \cs*{ctr_use_alph:n} \\ \cs*{Alph} & \cs*{ctr_use_Alph:n} \\ \cs*{roman} & \cs*{ctr_use_roman:n} \\ \cs*{Roman} & \cs*{ctr_use_Roman:n} \\ \cs*{fnsymbol} & \cs*{ctr_use_fn:n} \\ \bottomrule \end{tabular} \end{table} \subsubsection{Creating counters} \DescribeMacro\ctr_new:n{} \DescribeMacro\ctr_new:nn{}{} This macro creates a new counter, and is the direct counterpart of the \cs{newcounter} \LaTeXe\ macro. It has two variants, one of which also sets a parent counter (\emph{i.e.} a counter which will reset the new counter when incremented), corresponding to using \cs{newcounter} with an optional argument. \subsubsection{Setting counters} \DescribeMacro\ctr_gzero:n{} This macro has no \LaTeXe\ counterpart, but could be useful (and is used internally by other \thepkg\ macros). It sets the counter value to zero. \DescribeMacro\ctr_gincr:n{} This macro increments the counter by one, and is the \LaTeX3 equivalent of \cs{stepcounter}. \DescribeMacro\ctr_ref_gincr:n{} In addition to incementing the counter by one, this macro sets the internal \LaTeXe\ macro \cs{@currentlabel}, so that references and labels work properly. It is the \LaTeX3 variant of \cs{refstepcounter}. \DescribeMacro\ctr_gadd:nn{}{} The \LaTeX3 counterpart of \cs{addtocounter}. Simply adds \meta{value} to the counter. \DescribeMacro\ctr_gset:nn{}{} Corresponds to \cs{setcounter}. Sets the counter to \meta{new value}. \subsubsection{Displaying counters} \LaTeXe\ provides a couple of different ways to express counters in typeset text. These macros correspond to (and extend) the repertoire of counter value macros provided by \LaTeXe\ using functionality from the \pkg{l3int} package. \DescribeMacro\ctr_use:n{} This is simply \cs{value}. It will simply use the value of the counter (using \cs{int_use:c}) and as such could be used in a \pkg{l3int} context whenever an integer value of the counter is needed. \DescribeMacro\ctr_use_arabic:n{} This macro typesets the counter value as arabic numbers, and corresponds to the \cs{arabic} macro. \DescribeMacro\ctr_use_alph:n{} \DescribeMacro\ctr_use_Alph:n{} Typesets the counter value as lower-case or upper-case alphabetic characters --- the corresponding \LaTeXe\ macros are \cs{alph} and \cs{Alph}. \DescribeMacro\ctr_use_roman:n{} \DescribeMacro\ctr_use_Roman:n{} Typesets the counter value as lower-case or upper-case roman numerals. Corresponds to \cs{roman} and \cs{Roman}. \DescribeMacro\ctr_use_fn:n{} Typesets the counter value as footnote symbols, and is intended for use in footnote marks only. Corresponds to \cs{fnsymbol}. \DescribeMacro\ctr_use_binary:n{} \DescribeMacro\ctr_use_octal:n{} \DescribeMacro\ctr_use_hex:n{} Typesets the counter value as binary, octal or hexadecimal numbers. These macros have no \LaTeXe\ counterparts. \DescribeMacro\ctr_use_custom:nn{}{,\meta{item},...} Typesets the counter value according to the comma-separated list provided (containing a list of items). Values larger than the number of items in the list will cause an error. \section{Known issues} A list of current issues is available in the Github repository of this package\footnote{\url{https://github.com/urdh/l3ctr2e/issues}}, but as of the release of \theversion, there are no known issues. %\begin{description} % \item[\#6] ??? %\end{description} If you discover any bugs in this package, please report them to the issue tracker in the \thepackage\ Github repository. \Implementation \section{Implementation} Start by including \pkg{expl3} and well as declaring the class. \begin{MacroCode}{package} \RequirePackage{expl3,l3keys2e,xparse} \ProvidesExplClass{l3ctr2e}% {2013/05/25}{0.1d}{LaTeX2e counters in LaTeX3 ways} \end{MacroCode} \subsection{Options} \begin{MacroCode}{package} \keys_define:nn{l3ctr2e}{ \end{MacroCode} \begin{option}{replace} \begin{MacroCode}{package} replace .bool_set:N = \g__ctr_replace_latexe_bool, replace .default:n = true, replace .initial:n = false \end{MacroCode} \end{option} \begin{MacroCode}{package} } \ProcessKeysPackageOptions{l3ctr2e} \end{MacroCode} \subsection{Messages} One message is declared for future use. \begin{MacroCode}{package} \msg_new:nnn{l3ctr2e}{no-counter}{No~counter~`#1'~defined!} \end{MacroCode} \subsection{Private macros} \begin{macro}{\__ctr_exists:nT}[1] {Counter name} \begin{MacroCode}{package} \prg_new_conditional:Npnn\__ctr_exists:n#1{T}{ \int_if_exist:cTF{c@#1}{ \prg_return_true: }{ \msg_error:nnn{l3ctr2e}{no-counter}{#1} \prg_return_false: } } \end{MacroCode} \end{macro} \begin{macro*}{\g__ctr_children__ctr_global_tl} \begin{MacroCode}{package} \tl_new:N\g__ctr_children__ctr_global_tl \end{MacroCode} \end{macro*} \begin{macro}{\__ctr_define:n}[1] {Counter name} This does not yet fully correspond to \cs{@definecounter}. \begin{MacroCode}{package} \cs_new:Npn\__ctr_define:n#1{ \int_new:c{c@#1} % actually \newcount, incorrect!

\section{Installation} The easiest way to install this package is using the package manager provided by your \LaTeX\ installation if such a program is available. Failing that, provided you have obtained the package source (\file{l3ctr2e.tex} and \file{Makefile}) from either CTAN or Github, running \texttt{make install} inside the source directory works well. This will extract the documentation and code from \file{l3ctr2e.tex}, install all files into the TDS tree at \texttt{TEXMFHOME} and run \texttt{mktexlsr}. If you want to extract code and documentation without installing the package, run \texttt{make all} instead. If you insist on not using \texttt{make}, remember that packages distributed using \pkg{skdoc} must be extracted using \texttt{pdflatex}, \emph{not} \texttt{tex} or \texttt{latex}. \PrintChanges \PrintIndex \end{document}
