% There are three kinds of box operations: horizontal mode denoted
% with prefix |\hbox_|, vertical mode with prefix |\vbox_|, and the
% generic operations working in both modes with prefix |\box_|.
%
% \section{Creating and initialising boxes}
%
% \begin{function}{\box_new:N, \box_new:c}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{box_new:N} \meta{box}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Creates a new \meta{box} or raises an error if the name is
%   already taken. The declaration is global. The \meta{box} will
%   initially be void.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}{\box_clear:N, \box_clear:c, \box_gclear:N, \box_gclear:c}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{box_clear:N} \meta{box}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Clears the content of the \meta{box} by setting the box equal to
%   \cs{c_void_box}.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}
%   {\box_clear_new:N, \box_clear_new:c, \box_gclear_new:N, \box_gclear_new:c}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{box_clear_new:N} \meta{box}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Ensures that the \meta{box} exists globally by applying
%   \cs{box_new:N} if necessary, then applies \cs{box_(g)clear:N} to leave
%   the \meta{box} empty.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}
%   {

%     \cs{box_set_eq:NN} \meta{box_1} \meta{box_2}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Sets the content of \meta{box_1} equal to that of \meta{box_2}.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}

%   \end{syntax}
%   Sets the content of \meta{box_1} within the current \TeX{} group
%   equal to that of \meta{box_2}, then clears \meta{box_2} globally.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}
%   {
%     \box_gset_eq_clear:NN, \box_gset_eq_clear:cN,

%     \cs{box_gset_eq_clear:NN} \meta{box_1} \meta{box_2}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Sets the content of \meta{box_1} equal to that of \meta{box_2}, then
%   clears \meta{box_2}. These assignments are global.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[EXP, pTF, added=2012-03-03]
%   {\box_if_exist:N, \box_if_exist:c}

%   material specified by the \meta{box function}
%   such that its reference point is displaced horizontally by the given
%   \meta{dimexpr} from the reference point for typesetting, to the right
%   or left as appropriate. The \meta{box function} should be

%   \begin{texnote}
%     This is the \TeX{} primitive \tn{hbox}.
%   \end{texnote}
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}{\hbox_to_wd:nn}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{hbox_to_wd:nn} \Arg{dimexpr} \Arg{contents}

%   \end{syntax}
%   Typesets the \meta{contents} at natural width and then stores the
%   result inside the \meta{box}. In contrast
%   to \cs{hbox_set:Nn} this function does not absorb the argument

%   where the \meta{content} may not be a simple argument.
% \end{function}

%   \begin{texnote}
%     This is the \TeX{} primitive \tn{unhbox}.
%   \end{texnote}
% \end{function}
%
% \section{Vertical mode boxes}
%
% Vertical boxes inherit their baseline from their contents. The
% standard case is that the baseline of the box is at the same position
% as that of the last item added to the box. This means that the box
% will have no depth unless the last item added to it had depth. As a
% result most vertical boxes have a large height value and small or
% zero depth. The exception are |_top| boxes, where the reference point
% is that of the first item added. These tend to have a large depth and
% small height, although the latter will typically be non-zero.

%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{vbox:n} \Arg{contents}
