An expandable addition by one % is complicated enough. Therefore \cmd{\aa@process} uses % only expandible versions of additions by one. The algorithm % starts with one and increments it until the size of the wanted % number is reached. The intermediate number that is incremented % is present in two kinds: % \begin{itemize} % \item the normal decimal form for the \cs{ifnum}-comparison, % \item a digit format: the end of each digit is marked by an dot, % and the digits are in reserved order. An empty digit % ends this format. The meaning of a digit is here the % decimal representation of a letter, the range is % from 1 until 26. % \end{itemize} % Example: The aim number is 100, the intermediate number 50, so % following would be on the argument stack: % \begin{quote} % |50;100;24.1..\aa@alph| % \end{quote} % \cmd{\aa@process} increments the first argument |#1| (|50|), % and calls \cmd{\aa@alphinc} to increment the digit form % (|24.1..|). The middle part with the aim number |;#2;| (|;100;|) % will not be changed. Neither \cmd{\aa@process} nor \cmd{\aa@alphinc} % need the conversion command \cmd{\aa@alph} nor \cmd{\aa@Alph}. % This command is read by \cmd{\aa@getresult}, if the digit form is % ready. % % The expansion motor is \cmd{\number}. It reads and expands token % to get decimal numbers until a token is reached that isn't a % decimal digit. So the expansion doesn't stop, if \cmd{\aa@inc} % is ready, because \cmd{\aa@inc} produces only decimal digits. % \cmd{\aa@alphinc} is expanded to look for further digits. % Now \cmd{\aa@alphinc} makes its job and returns with its % argument |;#2;|.

The files and directories obey the TDS standard. % \begin{description} % \item[\CTAN{macros/latex/contrib/oberdiek/oberdiek-tds.zip}] % \end{description} % \emph{TDS} refers to the standard ``A Directory Structure % for \TeX\ Files'' (\CTAN{tds/tds.pdf}). Directories % with \xfile{texmf} in their name are usually organized this way. % % \subsection{Bundle installation} % % \paragraph{Unpacking.} Unpack the \xfile{oberdiek-tds.zip} in the % TDS tree (also known as \xfile{texmf} tree) of your choice. % Example (linux): % \begin{quote} % |unzip oberdiek-tds.zip -d ~/texmf| % \end{quote} % % \paragraph{Script installation.} % Check the directory \xfile{TDS:scripts/oberdiek/} for % scripts that need further installation steps. % Package \xpackage{attachfile2} comes with the Perl script % \xfile{pdfatfi.pl} that should be installed in such a way % that it can be called as \texttt{pdfatfi}. % Example (linux): % \begin{quote} % |chmod +x scripts/oberdiek/pdfatfi.pl|\\ % |cp scripts/oberdiek/pdfatfi.pl /usr/local/bin/| % \end{quote} % % \subsection{Package installation} % % \paragraph{Unpacking.} The \xfile{.dtx} file is a self-extracting % \docstrip\ archive. The files are extracted by running the % \xfile{.dtx} through \plainTeX: % \begin{quote} % \verb|tex alphalph.dtx| % \end{quote} % % \paragraph{TDS.} Now the different files must be moved into % the different directories in your installation TDS tree % (also known as \xfile{texmf} tree): % \begin{quote} % \def\t{^^A % \begin{tabular}{@{}>{\ttfamily}l@{ $\rightarrow$ }>{\ttfamily}l@{}} % alphalph.sty & tex/generic/oberdiek/alphalph.sty\\ % alphalph.pdf & doc/latex/oberdiek/alphalph.pdf\\ % alphalph.dtx & source/latex/oberdiek/alphalph.dtx\\ % \end{tabular}^^A % }^^A % \sbox0{\t}^^A % \ifdim\wd0>\linewidth % \begingroup % \advance\linewidth by\leftmargin % \advance\linewidth by\rightmargin % \edef\x{\endgroup % \def\noexpand\lw{\the\linewidth}^^A % }\x % \def\lwbox{^^A % \leavevmode % \hbox to \linewidth{^^A % \kern-\leftmargin\relax % \hss % \usebox0 % \hss % \kern-\rightmargin\relax % }^^A % }^^A % \ifdim\wd0>\lw % \sbox0{\small\t}^^A % \ifdim\wd0>\linewidth % \ifdim\wd0>\lw % \sbox0{\footnotesize\t}^^A % \ifdim\wd0>\linewidth % \ifdim\wd0>\lw % \sbox0{\scriptsize\t}^^A % \ifdim\wd0>\linewidth % \ifdim\wd0>\lw % \sbox0{\tiny\t}^^A % \ifdim\wd0>\linewidth % \lwbox % \else % \usebox0 % \fi % \else % \lwbox % \fi % \else % \usebox0 % \fi % \else % \lwbox % \fi % \else % \usebox0 % \fi % \else % \lwbox % \fi % \else % \usebox0 % \fi % \else % \lwbox % \fi % \else % \usebox0 % \fi % \end{quote} % If you have a \xfile{docstrip.cfg} that configures and enables \docstrip's % TDS installing feature, then some files can already be in the right % place, see the documentation of \docstrip. % % \subsection{Refresh file name databases} % % If your \TeX~distribution % (\teTeX, \mikTeX, \dots) relies on file name databases, you must refresh % these. For example, \teTeX\ users run \verb|texhash| or % \verb|mktexlsr|. % % \subsection{Some details for the interested} % % \paragraph{Attached source.} % % The PDF documentation on CTAN also includes the % \xfile{.dtx} source file. It can be extracted by % AcrobatReader 6 or higher. Another option is \textsf{pdftk}, % e.g. unpack the file into the current directory: % \begin{quote} % \verb|pdftk alphalph.pdf unpack_files output .| % \end{quote} % % \paragraph{Unpacking with \LaTeX.} % The \xfile{.dtx} chooses its action depending on the format: % \begin{description} % \item[\plainTeX:] Run \docstrip\ and extract the files. % \item[\LaTeX:] Generate the documentation. % \end{description} % If you insist on using \LaTeX\ for \docstrip\ (really, % \docstrip\ does not need \LaTeX), then inform the autodetect routine % about your intention: % \begin{quote} % \verb|latex \let\install=y\input{alphalph.dtx}| % \end{quote} % Do not forget to quote the argument according to the demands % of your shell. % % \paragraph{Generating the documentation.} % You can use both the \xfile{.dtx} or the \xfile{.drv} to generate % the documentation. The process can be configured by the % configuration file \xfile{ltxdoc.cfg}. For instance, put this % line into this file, if you want to have A4 as paper format: % \begin{quote} % \verb|\PassOptionsToClass{a4paper}{article}| % \end{quote} % An example follows how to generate the % documentation with pdf\LaTeX: % \begin{quote} %\begin{verbatim} %pdflatex alphalph.dtx %makeindex -s gind.ist alphalph.idx %pdflatex alphalph.dtx %makeindex -s gind.ist alphalph.idx %pdflatex alphalph.dtx %\end{verbatim} % \end{quote} % % \begin{History} % \begin{Version}{1999/03/19 v0.1} % \item % The first version was built as a response to a % \URL{question}^^A % {http://www.dejanews.com/[ST_rn=ps]/getdoc.xp?AN=455791936}^^A % of \NameEmail{Will Douglas}{william.douglas@wolfson.ox.ac.uk} % and the % \URL{request}^^A % {http://www.dejanews.com/[ST_rn=ps]/getdoc.xp?AN=456358639}^^A % of \NameEmail{Donald Arsenau}{asnd@reg.triumf.ca}, % published in the newsgroup % \href{news:comp.text.tex}{comp.text.tex}: % \URL{``Re: alph counters \textgreater\ 26''}^^A % {http://www.dejanews.com/[ST_rn=ps]/getdoc.xp?AN=456485421} % \item % Copyright: LPPL (\CTAN{macros/latex/base/lppl.txt}) % \end{Version} % \begin{Version}{1999/04/12 v1.0} % \item % Documentation added in dtx format. % \item % \eTeX\ support added. % \end{Version} % \begin{Version}{1999/04/13 v1.1} % \item % Minor documentation change. % \item % First CTAN release. % \end{Version} % \begin{Version}{1999/06/26 v1.2} % \item % First generic code about \cmd{\ProvidesPackage} improved. % \item % Documentation: Installation part revised. % \end{Version} % \begin{Version}{2006/02/20 v1.3} % \item % Reload check (for \plainTeX) % \item % New DTX framework. % \item % LPPL 1.3 % \end{Version} % \begin{Version}{2006/05/30 v1.4} % \item % \cs{newalphalph} added. % \end{Version} % \begin{Version}{2007/04/11 v1.5} % \item % Line ends sanitized. % \end{Version} % \end{History} % % \PrintIndex % % \Finale \endinput
