\testfileincipit
\begin{center}
\bfseries Two features of \texttt{mathastext}:\\
extended scope of the math alphabets and added italic corrections\par
\end{center}
The package makes
${!}\,{?}\,{,}\,{:}\,{;}\,{+}\,{-}\,{=}\,{(}\,{)}\,{[}\,{]}\,{<}\,{>}\,{\{}\,{\}}$,
the asterisk $*$, and $.\,/\,\vert\,\backslash\,{\#}\,{\$}\,{\%}\,{\&}$ obey the
math alphabet commands (this is the maximal list, some characters may have been
excluded by the corresponding package options). For the characters listed first
the mechanism involves a `mathematical activation'.
As this process may create incompatibilities, it will be put into action
for
${!}\,{?}\,{,}\,{:}\,{;}\,{+}\,{-}\,{=}\,{(}\,{)}\,{[}\,{]}\,{<}\,{>}$
only if the user makes use of the package command
\verb|\MTnonlettersobeymathxx| (and the braces necessitate
\verb|\MTexplicitbracesobeymathxx|).
It could be that one such character has been made `active' in the entire
document by some other package, typically a language definition file for the
\verb|babel| system. Here for example we have used \verb|babel| with the
\verb|french| option, which makes the high punctuation characters !?:; active
throughout the document (extra spacing is put in front of the character when
used in text; no change in math but perhaps for other languages and characters
this could happen, it is up to the language definition file to decide).
When \verb|mathastext| detects that a character it wants to `mathematically
activate' is already `active', it does not go further except if it seems that
the activation was done by Babel. If the activation was done by Babel, then
\verb|mathastext| replaces the expansion of the active character in math mode by
what is necessary to achieve its goal. It does not additionally mathematically
activate the character; rather it makes sure that the character is \emph{not}
mathematically active. In the present document the colon was made mathematically
active by \verb|mathtools| but this was already canceled in the preamble by
\verb|mathastext| as it was loaded later. And it is better so, because the
combination \verb|babel| (with option \verb|frenchb|) +\verb|mathtools| (with
\verb|centercolon|) makes \verb|$:$| create an infinite loop!
But even if someone had mathematically activated the colon after the preamble,
or after the loading of \verb|mathastext|, this would be canceled again
automatically for each inline or displayed mathematical formula (if the user
does \verb|\MTnonlettersobeymathxx|).
The conclusion with \verb|\MTnonlettersobeymathxx| is: if some package has tried
to make the character mathematically active, this will be overruled by
\verb|mathastext|; if some package has made the character globally active, then
the package wins except if it is Babel, as \verb|mathastext| may in the latter
case safely modify the action in math mode (paying attention to the fact that
the character should be usable in \verb|\label| and \verb|\ref| in and outside
of math mode).
The displayed equations next illustrate the extended scope of the math alphabets
which now apply to $=$, $-$, $($, $)$, $[$, $]$ (but not to the large delimiters
of course). Furthermore, for testing purposes the equations were labeled using
such characters, for example the last one has label \verb|eq=7|, to check that
the mathematical activation of $=$ does not cause problems with
\verb|\label/\ref|.
\def\testformula{\quad\Biggl\lbrace\biggl(\left(\left[[\sin(a) + \cos(b) - \log(c) =
\sec(d)]\right]\right)\biggr)\Biggr\rbrace}
\begin{equation}\testformula\label{eq:1}\end{equation}
\begin{equation}\mathnormalbold{mathnormalbold:\testformula}\label{eq;2}\end{equation}
\begin{equation}\mathrm{mathrm:\testformula}\label{eq?3}\end{equation}
\begin{equation}\mathbf{mathbf:\testformula}\label{eq!4}\end{equation}
\begin{equation}\mathit{mathit:\testformula}\label{eq(5}\end{equation}
\begin{equation}\mathtt{mathtt:\testformula}\label{eq)6}\end{equation}
\begin{equation}\mathsf{mathsf:\testformula}\label{eq=7}\end{equation}
Equations above are numbered \ref{eq:1}, \ref{eq;2}, \ref{eq?3}, \ref{eq!4}, and
$\ref{eq(5}$, $\ref{eq)6}$, and $\ref{eq=7}$.
\def\testline#1{$#1$&$\mathnormalbold{#1}$&$\mathrm{#1}$&$\mathbf{#1}$&$\mathit{#1}$&$\mathtt{#1}$&$\mathsf{#1}$}
\centerline{\begin{tabular}{ccccccc}
\testline{a!b}\\
\testline{a?b}\\
\testline{a,b}\\
\testline{a;b}\\
\testline{a:b}\\
\testline{a:=b}\\
\testline{a\vcentcolon= b}\\
\testline{a\colon b}\\
\testline{a.b}\\
\testline{a-b}\\

\end{tabular}}
The question mark has been made active by \verb|babel+frenchb|.
\verb|mathastext| has imposed in math mode its ways (now \verb|$\mathbf{???}$|
gives $\mathbf{???}$). As the extra spacing is added by \verb|frenchb| only in
text, we had to use the math alphabet to check that indeed \verb|mathastext|
overruled Babel.
To double-check we will now make \string? mathematically active:
\verb|\mathcode`?="8000|\mathcode`?="8000. This is a sure cause for disaster
normally with Babel (don't do this at home without \verb|mathastext|!). But here
with \verb|$?$| no bad surprise (infinite loop!) awaits us: just $?$.
Let's take some other character, for example the opening parenthesis, and make
it catcode active:
\verb|\catcode`(=\active \def ({X}|.
Let's try the input
\verb|( and $($|.
\begingroup
\catcode`(=\active \gdef ({X}
This gives ( and $($. We see that \verb|mathastext| does not attempt to modify
the definition of the active character, as this activation was not done via the
\verb|babel| services. \catcode`\(=12 \mathcode`(="8000 We now revert the
parenthesis to catcode other (but maintain \verb|\def ({X}| as definition of its
active version), and then make it mathematically active using the command
\verb|\mathcode`(="8000|. If we try \verb|$((($| we see that the parenthesis is
not converted into an $X$: $((($. The mathematically active character was
overruled by \verb|mathastext|.
Issuing \verb|\MTnonlettersdonotobeymathxx|\MTnonlettersdonotobeymathxx\ we do
get the $X$'s from the input \verb|$((($|: $((($
\endgroup
This shows that \verb|mathastext| now does not modify in math mode the
non-letter \verb|(|.
\MTversion{upright}\MTnonlettersobeymathxx
We defined in the preamble of the document a \verb|mathastext|-enhanced
math version (named \verb|upright|) having the Latin letters upright in
math mode. Let's switch to
it: \newline
\hbox to\linewidth{\hss\verb|\MTversion{upright}|\hss}
With a font which is neither italic nor slanted, \verb|mathastext| automatically
inserts italic corrections for better positioning of the subscript:
\verb|$f_i^i$| gives
$f_i^i$.
After \verb|\MTnoicinmath| which turns off this feature\MTnoicinmath{}, the same
input gives $f_i^i$, which is different.
\footnote{last time I tried, this only worked with PDF\LaTeX{}, not with
\LuaLaTeX{} or \XeTeX{}.}
Again with italic corrections on (\verb|\MTicinmath|)\MTicinmath{}
\verb|$f_{abc}^{def}$| gives $f_{abc}^{def}$, and here is another one:
$f^{f_{abc}^{def}}_u$. Without italic corrections\MTnoicinmath: $f_{abc}^{def}$,
and respectively $f^{f_{abc}^{def}}_u$.\MTicinmath We can also check that the
added italic corrections do not prevent the formation of ligatures when using
the math alphabets, apart from \verb|\mathnormal| (which comes first):
$\mathnormal{ff}$, $\mathrm{ff}$, $\mathit{ff}$, $\mathbf{ff}$, $\mathtt{ff}$
(no ligature in teletype) and $\mathsf{ff}$.
