<h3><b>Introduction</b></h3><p>
<tt>mathspic</tt> is a graphics program which implements a simple
programming notation, <i>mathspic</i>, suitable for the
creation of diagrams or mathematical figures.
<tt>mathspic</tt>'s input is a LaTeX file containing
<tt>mathspic</tt> plotting commands.
<tt>mathspic</tt>'s output is the equivalent LaTeX file
containing PiCTeX plotting commands.
Technically, therefore, <tt>mathspic</tt>
is a preprocessor or `filter' for use with the PiCTeX drawing engine.
<tt>mathspic</tt> was originally written in PowerBASIC 3.5, a
DOS-based programming language. Since, many
potential users are working in rather different programming environments,
the authors thought of porting <tt>mathspic</tt> into another programming
cross-platform language which would be widely available.
The authors decided to rewrite <tt>mathspic</tt> in Perl
since not only is Perl pretty stable, but it has
extensive mathematical support.<p>

<h3><b>Program Structure</b></h3><p>
<a name="NWDCUvTi-2">Initially, we define a little package that is used to implement the </a><code>loop</code>
command. Then, we must do is to check the possible command line arguments.
Next, we process the input file.
If the user has used the <code>-b</code> (see below), the program will `beep'
if any errors are found during processing.
We need some auxiliary subroutines in order to properly parse the input
file and of course to handle the various commands. We also need a
few global variables.

__END__

</pre><p><a name="NWDCUvTi-3">The package </a><code>DummyFH</code> is used in the implementation of the <code>loop</code> command.
It creates a dummy filehandle that is associated with an array of strings. Since
we only read data from this dummy filehandle, we implement the <code>READLINE</code> subroutine.
When we read a line from this dummy filehandle, we actually requesting the next entry
of the array (if any). That is why we use the package variable <code>$index</code>. When there
are no more entries in the array, subroutine <code>READLINE</code> returns the value <code>undef</code>
so to falsify loop that controls the consumption of input from this dummy filehandle.

<pre><a name="NWCUvTi-2YwRNH-1" href="#NWDCUvTi-3"><dfn>&lt;package <tt>DummyFH</tt> &gt;=</dfn></a> <b>(<a href="#NWDCUvTi-2">&lt;-U</a>)</b>
package DummyFH;
my $index = 0;
sub TIEHANDLE {
    my $class = shift;
    my $self= shift;
    bless $self, $class;
}
sub READLINE {
    my $self = shift;
    #shift @$self;
    if ($index &gt; $#$self) {
      $index = 0;
      return undef;
    }
    else {
      return $self-&gt;[$index++];
    }
}

</pre><p><tt>mathspic</tt> accepts at most four command-line switches, namely
<tt>-b</tt> for enabling the beep, <tt>-s</tt> for automatic
screen viewing of the output-file,
<tt>-c</tt> for cleaning out all comment-lines,
and <tt>-o</tt> with a following file-name
for specifying the output file-name.
<tt><a name="NWDCUvTi-4">mathspic</a></tt> requires the name of an existing input-file
(the so-called <tt>mathspic</tt>-file) containing
<tt>mathspic</tt>commands.
If no command-line arguments are supplied, we print a
suitable usage message indicating the syntax.
For each command-line argument we set a global
variable. The default behavior is that the `bell' does not beep
and comment-lines are not removed from the output-file.

<code>-e</code> operator. First we check to see if <code>$file</code> exits.
If the input-file does exist then the variable <code>$file</code> contains
the file name. In case the user has not specified an output
file, the default output file name is the name of the input file with
extension <code>.mt</code>. Finally, the program outputs all error messages to
the screen and to a log file. The name of the log file consists of
the contents of the variable <code>$file</code> and the extension <code>.mlg</code>.

</pre><p><a name="NWDCUvTi-7">Now that we have all the command line arguments, we can start processing</a>
the input file. This is done by calling the subroutine <code>process_input</code>.
Before that we must open all necessary files. Next,
we print some `header' information to the output file and to the log file.

  open(LOG,&quot;&gt;$log_file&quot;)||die &quot;Can't open log file: $log_file\n&quot;;
  print_headers;
  process_input(IN,&quot;&quot;);

</pre><p>In this section we define a few global variables. More specifically:
the variable <code>$version_number</code> contains the current version number of the
program, the variable <code>$commandLineArgs</code> contains the command line arguments.
These two variables are used in the <code>print_headers</code> subroutine.
The variable <code>$command</code> will contain the whole current input line.
Hash <code>%PointTable</code> is used to store point names and related
information. Hash <code>%VarTable</code> is used to store mathspic variable names
and related information, while the associative array <code>%ConstTable</code> contains the
names of constants. Note that the values of both constants and variables are
kept in <code>%VarTable</code>.
The variable <code>$no_errors</code> is incremented whenever the
program encounters an error in the input file. The variables <code>$xunits</code>,
<code>$yunits</code> and <code>$units</code> are related to the <code>paper</code> command.
In particular, the variable <code>$units</code> is used to parse the unit part of the
<code>unit</code> part of the <code>paper</code> command. The variable <code>$defaultsymbol</code> is used to
set the point shape.  The constant <code>PI</code> holds the value of the mathematical
 constant pi.
The constant <code>R2D</code> holds the transformation factor to transform radians to
degrees. The constant <code>D2R</code> holds  the transformation factor
to transform degrees to radians, i.e., the value <code>1/R2D</code>. The global variables
<code>$arrowLength</code>, <code>$arrowAngleB</code> and <code>$arrowAngleC</code> are actually parameters that
<a name="NWDCUvTi-8">are used by the subroutines that draw arrows. Since </a><code>$arrowLength</code> is actually
a length, variable <code>$arrowLenghtUnits</code> holds the units of measure in which
this length is expressed. The hash table <code>%DimOfPoint</code> contains the side or the
radius of a point whose plot-symbol is a square or a circle, respectively. In case the
default point symbol is a circle or a square, variable <code>$GlobalDimOfPoints</code> is used
to store the length of the radius or the length of the side of default point symbol,
respectively. Variable <code>$LineThickness</code> holds the current line thickness (the
default value is  0.4&nbsp;pt).

</pre><p>In this section we define the various subroutines that are needed in order
to process the input file.

<p> Subroutine <tt>mpp</tt> is a mathspic preprocessor that allows the definition
and use of macros with or without arguments. For the moment it is an experimental
feature and it should be used with care. 

<p> Subroutine <tt>PrintErrorMessage</tt> is used to print error messages
to the screen, to the output file and to the log file.

<p> Subroutine <tt>PrintWarningMessage</tt> is used to print warning messages
to the screen, to the output file and to the log file.

<p> Subroutine <tt>PrintFatalError</tt> is used to print an error message
to the screen and to abort execution, where the error is considered fatal
and not recoverable.

<p>Subroutine <tt>chk_lparen</tt> checks whether the next input
character is a left parenthesis. Subroutine <tt>chk_rparen</tt>
checks whether the next input character is a right parenthesis. Subroutine
<tt>chk_comment</tt> checks whether a given command is followed by a trailing
comment. In the same spirit, we define the subroutines <tt>chk_lcb</tt>,
<tt>chk_rcb</tt>, <tt>chk_lsb</tt>, and  <tt>chk_rsb</tt> which check for
opening and closing curly and square brackets respectively.
The subroutine <code>chk_comma</code> checks whether the next token is a comma.

<p> Subroutine <code>print_headers</code> is used to print a header to the output file,
so a user knows that the file has been generated by <tt>mathspic</tt>.

<p> Subroutine <code>get_point</code> is used to parse a point name and to
check whether the point exists (i.e whether the point has been defined).

<p> Subroutine <code>perpendicular</code> is used to compute the coordinates of the
foot of perpendicular line from some point P to a line AB.

<p> Subroutine <code>Length</code> is used to compute the distance between two
points A and B.

<p> Subroutine <code>triangleArea</code> computes the area of a triangle defined
by three points.

<p> Subroutine <code>PointOnLine</code> is used to compute the coordinates of
a point on a line segment AB and  a distance d units from A towards B.

coordinates of three points and computes the center of the circle that
passes through the three points which define the triangle.

<p> Subroutine <code>ComputeDist</code> is used to compute a numeric value that is
specified by either a variable name, a pair of points, or just a number.

<p> Subroutine <code>intersection4points</code> is used to compute the coordinates
of the point of intersection of two lines specified by the four arguments
(i.e. two arguments for each point).

<p> Subroutine <code>IncircleCenter</code> is used to compute the center and
the radius of a circle that touches internally the sides of a triangle,
the coordinates of the three points which define the triangle
being the arguments of the subroutine.

<p> Subroutine <code>Angle</code> determines the opening in degrees of an angle
defined by three points which are the arguments of this subroutine.

<p> Subroutine <code>excircle</code> computes the center and the radius of
a circle that externally touches a given side (4th and 5th arguments) of
triangle (determined by the 1st, the 2nd and the 3rd argument).

<p> Subroutine <code>DrawLineOrArrow</code> is used to parse the arguments of the commands
    <code>drawline</code>, <code>drawthickline</code>, <code>drawarrow</code>, <code>drawthickarrow</code> and
    <code>drawCurve</code>.

<p> Subroutine <code>drawarrows</code> is used to draw one or more arrows between points.

<p> Subroutine <code>drawlines</code> is used to draw one or more lines between points.

<p> Subroutine <code>drawCurve</code> is used to draw a curve between an odd number of points.

<p> Subroutine <code>drawpoints</code> is used to draw the point symbol of one or more points.

<p> Subroutine <code>drawAngleArc</code> is used to draw an arc line within an angle.

declaration.

<p> Subroutine <code>memberOf</code> is used to determine whether a string is a
member of a list of strings.

<p> Subroutine <code>midpoint</code> computes the midpoint of two points.

<p> Subroutine <code>tand</code> computes the tangent of an angle, where the
angle is expressed in degrees.

<p> Subroutine <code>get_string</code> scans a string in order to extract a
valid mathspic string.

<p> Subroutine <code>is_tainted</code> checks whether a string contains data that
may be proved harmful if used as arguments to a shell escape.

<p> Subroutine <code>noOfDigits</code> has one argument which is a number and
returns the number of decimal digits it has.

<p> Subroutine <code>drawsquare</code> has one argument which is the radius of point
and yields LaTeX code that draws a square.

<p> Subroutine <code>X2sp</code> can be used to transform a length to sp units.

</pre><p>Subroutine <tt>mpp</tt> is an implementation of a mathspic preprocessor that allows
the definition of one-line macros with or without arguments. Macro definition has the
following syntax:
<center>
 <tt>"%def" macro_name "(" [ parameters ] ")" macro_code
</center>
where parameters is a list of comma separated strings (e.g., x,y,z). Once a macro is
defined it can be used or it can be undefined. To undefine a macro one has to use
the following command:
<center>
 <tt>"%undef" [ macro_name ] 
</center
This means that an undef command without an accompanying macro name has no effect
at all. In order to use a macro we simply type its name and its arguments in
parentheses. Note that macro arguments should not contain spaces. If a macro has no
argument, there is no need to type any parentheses. We will now describe briefly how
the macro processor operates.
<p> If the current input line starts with <tt>%def</tt>, then we assume that we have
a macro definition. We parse each component of the macro definition and finally we
store the macro name, the macro code and the macro parameters (if any) in an anonymous
hash that eventually becomes part of an array. If we encounter any error, we simply
<a name="NWDCUvTi-A">skip to the next line after printing a suitable error message. Now, if the first tokens</a>
of an input line are <tt>%undef</tt>, we assume the user wants to delete a macro. 
In case these tokens are not followed by a macro name or the macro name has not been
defined we simply go on. Otherwise, we delete the corresponding macro data from the
global array <code>@Macros</code> that contains all the macro information. Macro expansion is
more difficult and it will be described in detail in a separate document. At this point
we would like to thank Joachim Schneider <joachim at hal dot rhein-necker dot de>
for a suggestion on improving macro expansion.

</pre><p>Subroutine <tt>PrintErrorMessage</tt> has two parameters: the
error message that will be printed on the screen, the log file and

where <code>X</code> denotes the line number and <code>Error_Message</code> is the
actual error message. Note, that we print the tokens processed so far
and on the text line the unprocessed tokens, so that the user knows
<a name="NWDCUvTi-B">exactly where the error is. In the variable </a><code>$A</code> we store the processed
tokens, while the variable <code>$l</code> holds the length of <code>$A</code> plus the
length of the <code>$error_line</code> (that is the number of the input line where
the error occurred) plus 7, i.e., 4 (the length of the word
<code>line</code>) plus 2 (the two blank spaces) plus 1 (the symbol <code>:</code>).
Finally, we increment the error counter (variable <code>$no_errors</code>). Note, that
in case the user has specified the <code>-c</code> command line switch, we will not
print any messages to the output file.

a pair of numbers that correspond to the coordinates of a point that lies
at the foot of the perpendicular to the line AB that passes through point P.
The slope of line AB is m<sub>1</sub> and so its equation is

c<sub>1</sub>=y<sub>A</sub>-m<sub>1</sub>x<sub>A</sub>. Similarly, as P is

arguments that correspond to the coordinates of three points that
define a triangle. The subroutine computes the coordinates of
the center of a circle that passes through these three points, and the radius of

of the circle and its radius. Let the triangle points be <code>t1</code>, <code>t2</code>

i.e., <code>t1t2</code> and <code>t2t3</code>. For each
<a name="NWDCUvTi-S">side we locate the midpoints and get the their coordinates. We check</a>
whether either of these two lines is either vertical or horizontal. If this
is true, we know that one of the coordinates of the center of the circumcircle
is the same as that of the midpoints of the horizontal or vertical line.
Next, we determine the slopes of the lines <code>t1t2</code> and <code>t2t3</code>.
We now determine the slope of lines at right-angles to these lines. We solve the
resulting equations and obtain the center of the circumcircle. Now we get the
radius, and then we are done.

</pre><p>The subroutine <code>IncircleCenter</code> computes the center and the
radius of the circle that is inside a triangle and touches the sides of
the triangle. The subroutine has six arguments that correspond to the
coordinates of three points that uniquely determine the triangle. Here are
the details:
<ul>
<li> Let the triangle points be A, B, C and sides a, b, c, where side B
is opposite angle B, etc. </li>
<li> Use angles A and B only.</li>
<li> Let the bisector of angle A meet side a in point A1, and let the
distance of A1 from B be designated BA1</li>
<li> Using the sine rule, one gets: BA1/c = a/(b+c), that is
BA1 = c * a/(b+c).</li>
<li> Now do the same for side b, and determine equivalent point B1.
<a name="NWDCUvTi-V">CB1/a = b/(b+c), that is  CB1 = a * b/(b+c).</a></li>
<li> We can now find the intersection of the line from point A to point A1,
and the line from point B to point B1. We have four points, so we use the
mathspic internal <code>intersection4points</code> subroutine to return the
coordinates of the intersection X<sub>i</sub>, Y<sub>i</sub>.</li>
<li> Now get the radius: R=(area of triangle)/(a+b+c)/2</li>
<li>Finally, return the radius and the coordinates of the center.

</pre><p>The <code>DrawLineOrArrow</code> subroutine is used to parse the arguments of the commands
<code>drawline</code>, <code>drawthickline</code>, <code>drawarrow</code>, <code>drawthickarrow</code> and 
<code>drawCurve</code>. In general, these commands have as arguments a list of points separated by
commas that are used to draw a set of lines. The list of points is
enclosed in parentheses. Here we give only the syntax of the <code>drawline</code>
comma, as the syntax of the other commands is identical: 
<pre>
   drawline ::= "drawline"  "(" Points { "," Points } ")"
   Points ::= Point { separator Point}
   separator ::= blank | empty
</pre>
<a name="NWDCUvTi-Y">In the following code we</a>
scan a list of points (possibly separated by blanks) and we stop when
we encounter either a comma or some other character. In case we have found
a comma, we check whether we have a <code>drawline</code> command and if this is
the case we plot the list of points. We continue with the next list of points,
until there are no more points. The inner while-loop is used to control the
consumption of point tokens and the external to reset the array <code>PP</code> which
holds the point names.

<center>
<tt> \plot x1 y1  x2 y2 / %% pointname1 pointname2</tt>

If there are more than two points, then we need to write the PiCTeX code in
pairs with two points on each line (just to keep things simple) as follows:
<center>
<tt> \plot x1 y1  x2 y2 / %% pointname1 pointname2</tt>
<tt> \plot x2 y2  x3 y3 / %% pointname2 pointname3</tt>

so, then we must take care not to draw the line inside the line-free zone. If
a point does have a line-free zone, then we use the <code>pointOnLine</code>
subroutine to determine the point on the line which is just on the line-free

</pre><p>The subroutine <code>get_string</code> is used to extract a leading  valid mathspic string
from the input line. A string must start with a quotation mark, i.e., <code>&quot;</code>,
and must end with the same symbol. A string may contain quotation marks which
must be escaped with a backslash, i.e., <code>\</code>. Initially, we remove all
leading white space. If the next character of the string is not a quotation
mark we print an error message and stop. Otherwise, we split the string into
an array of characters and store the characters up to the next quotation
mark to the array <code>@cmd</code>. In case the next character is a backslash and
we aren't at the end of the input string and the next character is a
quotation mark, we have an escape sequence. This means that we store these
two characters in the <code>@cmd</code> array and skip to characters after the quotation
mark. Otherwise, we simply store the character in the <code>@cmd</code> array and
<a name="NWDCUvTi-j">skip to the next character. This process is repeated until either we consume</a>
all the characters of the string or until we find a sole quotation mark.
Since we are not sure what has forced the loop to exit, we check whether
there are still characters in the input string and we check whether this
is a quotation mark. If these tests fail we have a string without a
closing quotation mark. In all cases we return a triplet consisting of
a number denoting success (1) or failure (0) and what we have consumed
from the input string, and what is left from the input string.

start the actual processing. The variable <code>$INFILE</code> contains the name of
the input file and the variable <code>$lc</code> is the local line counter. The

of code and so we need to process them here. The variable <code>$no_output</code>

mode. If this is the case, we revert to process mode; otherwise we print
an error message. Finally, depending on whether we are in process or no-process
mode we process the input text or simply printed commented out to the output

<code>LaTeX</code>, and <code>latex</code> are considered exactly the same.
The valid <i>MathsPIC</i> commands are the following (don't pay attention
to the case!):
<ul>
<li>
Commands <code>drawAngleArc</code> and <code>drawAngleArrow</code> are used to draw an arc and an
arrow, respectively. Since, their user interface is identical, we process
them as if they were identical commands.
</li>
<li>
Command <code>drawcircle</code> is used to draw a circle with a specified radius.
</li>
<li>
Command <code>drawCircumCircle</code> is used to draw the circumcircle of triangle
specified by three points.
</li>
<li>
Command <code>drawexcircle</code> is used to draw the excircle of triangle
relative to a given side of the triangle.
</li>
<li>
Command <code>drawincircle</code> is used to draw the incircle of triangle.
</li>
<li>
Command <code>drawincurve</code> is used to draw a curve that passes through a number of points.
</li>
<li> Command <code>drawline</code> is used to draw either
a line (not necessarily a straight one) or a number of lines from a list
or lists of points. The lines are specified as pairs of points that can
be separated by blank spaces.
<li> Command <code>drawthickline</code> is used to draw either
a thick line (not necessarily a straight one) or a number of lines from a list
or lists of points. The lines are specified as pairs of points that can
be separated by blank spaces.
</li>
<li>
Command <code>drawPerpendicular</code> draws a perpendicular line from point A to
line BC.
</li>
<li> Command <code>drawpoint</code> is used to draw one, two or more points.
The point names can be separated by blanks.
</li>
<li>
Command <code>drawRightAngle</code> draws an angle, specified by three points,
of a size specified by a side length.
</li>
<li>
Command <code>drawsquare</code> draws a square, centered at the coordinates of the
first arguments, which is assumed to be a point, with side equal to the
second argument.
</li>
<li>
Command <code>inputfile*</code> is used to verbatim include a file into the output
file.
</li>
<li>
Command <code>inputfile</code> is used to include a <i>MathsPIC</i> program file
into the main file.
</li>
<li>
Command <code>linethickness</code> should be used to set the thickness of lines.
</li>
<li>
The <code>paper</code> command sets the paper scale, size, axes, etc. The most
general format of the command follows:
<center>
<tt>paper{units(mm), xrange(0,120), yrange(0,100),axes(LRTB)}</tt>
</center>
Note, that one may opt not to write the commas between the different
parts of command.
</li>
<li>
Command <code>point*</code> allocates <i>new</i> co-ordinates and optionally
a T<sub>E</sub>X point-name, to an existing point-name.
Command <code>point</code> allocates co-ordinates and, optionally a T<sub>E</sub>X
point character, to a <i>new</i> point-name. Since, both commands have
identical syntax, we handle them together.
</li>
<li> Command <code>PointSymbol</code> is used to set or reset the default
point symbol, i.e., when one plots a point this is the symbol that will
appear on the final DVI/PostScript file.
</li>
<li>
In the original DOS version of <tt>mathspic</tt> the command
<code>setPointNumber</code> was used to set the length of the arrays that keep the
various point related information. Since, in Perl arrays are dynamic objects
and one can push as many objects as he/she wants, the command is implemented
as an no-op. For reasons of compatibility, we only check the syntax of the
command.
</li>
<li>
Commands <code>showAngle</code> and <code>showArea</code>  can be used to get
the angle or the area determined by three points. In addition, the command 
<code>showLenght</code> can be used to get the length between two points. These three
commands produce a comment to the output file. 
</li>
<li> The <code>system</code> command provides a shell escape.
</li>
<li>
The <code>text</code> command is used to put a symbol/text at a
particular point location.
</li>
<li>
Command <code>var</code> is used to store a numeric value into a comma separated
list of variables.
</li>
<li>
Command <code>const</code> is used to store a numeric value into a comma separated
list of variables, whose value cannot be altered.
</li>
<li>
<a name="NWDCUvTi-r">If a line starts with a backslash, </a><code>\</code>, then we copy verbatim this
line to the output file. In case the second character is a space character,
then we simply output a copy of the line without the leading backslash.
</li>
</ul>
Empty lines are always ignored.

</pre><p>The command <code>drawAngleArc</code> draws an arc in the specified angle, a
distance <i>radius</i> from the angle. The angle is either <i>internal</i>
(<= 180 degrees) or <i>external</i> (>180 degrees). The direction of the
arc is either <i>clockwise</i> or <i>anticlockwise</i>. The command
<code>drawAngleArrow</code> draws an arrow just like the command <code>drawAngleArc</code>
draws an arc. The syntax of these commands is as follows:
<pre>
    cmds      ::= ( "drawAngleArc" | "drawAngleArrow" ) args
    args      ::= "{" angle comma radius comma internal comma clockwise "}"
    angle     ::= "angle" "(" three-points ")"
    radius    ::= "radius" "(" distance ")"
    distance  ::= expression
    internal  ::= "internal" | "external"
    clockwise ::= "clockwise" | "anticlockwise"
    comma     ::= "," | empty
</pre>
We first collect all relevant information by parsing the <code>args</code> and then
call the either the subroutine <code>drawAngleArc</code> or the subroutine
<code>drawAngleArrow</code> to produce the actual code
which is then printed into the output file. In order to be able to distinguish
which command we are dealing with we simply use the variable <code>$cmd</code>.
<a name="NWDCUvTi-t">We now start parsing the input line. We first check whether there is a</a>
left curly bracket. Next, we parse the <code>angle</code>, the <code>distance</code>, the
<code>internal</code> and the <code>clockwise</code> parts of the command. Finally, we check
for right curly bracket and a trailing comment. Depending on
the value of
the variable <code>$cmd</code> we call either the subroutine <code>drawAngleArc</code> or the
subroutine <code>drawAngleArrow</code>. These subroutines return the code that will be
finally output to the output file.

</pre>
The <code>modifier</code> is an expression that is used to modify the radius of the
excicle. We start by checking whether there is a left parenthesis. Then we
get names of the three points. In case any of the points is not defined
we issue an error message and continue with the next input line. Next, we
check whether there is a comma that separates the three points defining the
triangle from the two points defining a side of the triangle (variables
<code>$point1</code>, <code>$point2</code>, and <code>$point3</code>). Moreover, we must ensure that
the area of the area defined by these points is not equal to
zero. If it is we issue an error message and we continue with the next
input line. Now, we are ready to get the two
point names that define the side of the triangle (variables <code>$point3</code> and
<code>$point5</code>). At this point we must make sure that these points are different
points and that they are members of the list of points that define the triangle.
We make this check by calling the subroutine <code>memberOf</code>. Next, we check
whether there is a closing right parenthesis. We now compute the center
and the radius of the excircle by calling the subroutine <code>excircle</code>. The
coordinates of the center are stored in the variables <code>$xc</code> and <code>$yc</code>,
while the radius is stored in the variable <code>$r</code>. If the next
non-blank input character is a left square bracket, then we know the user has
specified the optional part. We use the subroutine <code>expr</code> to get the value of
the optional part. The value of the optional part is stored in the variable <code>$R</code>.
At this point we check whether the sum of the radius
plus the optional part is equal to zero and if it is we continue with the
next input line. Next, we check for a closing right square bracket. We are

Some notes are in order:

<li> BS bisects angle ABC, and meets AC in Q, so start by determining point

draw S<sub>1</sub>-S and S<sub>2</sub>-S.</li>
<li> Distance AQ is given by AC/(1+tan(BCA))</li>
<li> The coordinates of Q are computed using the subroutine <code>pointOnLine</code>.</li>
<li> Now we compute the coordinates of S on line BQ.</li>
<li> We compute the coordinates of S<sub>1</sub> and S<sub>2</sub> by using

</ol>
<a name="NWDCUvTi-12">In order to implement the above steps we first compute the length of the line</a>
AB. Note that A is <code>$point1</code>, etc. Next we compute the angle BAC. Now
we compute the distance AQ (variable <code>$line1</code>). The coordinates of point
Q are stored in variables <code>$xQ</code> and <code>$yQ</code>. The coordinates of point
S are stored in variables <code>$xS</code> and <code>$yS</code>. Now we have to determine the

are stored in variables <code>$xS1</code>, <code>$yS1</code> and <code>$xS2</code>, <code>$yS2</code>,

</pre><p>The syntax of the <code>point</code> commands follows:
<pre>
point[*](PointName){Coordinates}[PointSymbol]
</pre>
where <code>PointName</code> is valid point name, <code>Coordinates</code> is either a
pair of numbers denoting the coordinates of the point or an expression
by means of which the system computes the coordinates of the point, and
the <code>PointSymbol</code> is a valid  T<sub><font size=+1>E</font></sub>X
command denoting a point symbol. A valid point name consists of a
letter and at most two trailing digits. That is, the names <code>a11</code>,
<code>b2</code> and <code>c</code> are valid names while <code>qw</code> and <code>s123</code> are not.
The first thing we do is to set the point shape to the default symbol
(this has been initialized in the main program). Next, we check whether
we have a <code>point</code>command or a <code>point*</code> simply by inspecting the very
next token. Note that there must be no blank spaces between the token
<code>point</code> and the star symbol. Next, we get the point name: remember that
<a name="NWDCUvTi-1I">the point name is surrounded by parentheses. In case we don't find a valid</a>
point name we issue an error message and continue with the next line of
input. Suppose the point name was a valid one. If we have a <code>point*</code>
command we must ensure that the this particular point name has been defined.
If we have a <code>point</code> command we must ensure that this particular point
name has not been defined. Point names are stored in the hash <code>%PointTable</code>.
We are now ready to process the coordinates part and the optional
plot symbol part.

We now briefly explain the functionality of each option:
<ul>
<li>midpoint(AB): the midpoint between points A and B</li>
<li>pointOnLine(AB,d): point at distance d from A towards B</li>
<li>intersection(AB,CD): intersection of lines defined by AB and CD</li>
<li>perpendicular(A,BC): point of the foot of the perpendicular from A to line BC</li>
<li>circumCircleCenter(ABC): center of circumcircle of triangle ABC</li>
<li>incircleCenter(ABC):center of incircle of triangle ABC</li>
<li>excircleCenter(ABC,BC): center of excircle of triangle ABC, touching
side BC</li>
<li>A, shift(x,y): Point displaced from A by x and y along the X and Y
axes</li>
<li>A, polar(r,d): Point displaced from A by distance r in direction d</li>
<li>A, rotate(B,d): Rotate A about B by d</li>
</ul>
We now explain how the following piece of code operates. In case the first
token is a number, we assume that the coordinates are specified by a
number and another number, a variable or a pair of points. So, we check
whether there is a comma and use the subroutine <code>ComputeDist</code> to get the
second coordinate. In case the next token is one of the words
<code>perpendicular</code>, <code>intersection</code>, <code>midpoint</code>, <code>pointonline</code>,
<code>circumcircleCenter</code>, <code>IncircleCenter</code>, or <code>ExcircleCenter</code>
we consume the corresponding token and process the corresponding case.
In case the first two tokens are two identifiers, then we assume that we
have a pair of numbers. We compute their distance, check whether there is
a leading comma and compute the y-coordinate by calling subroutine
<code>ComputeDist</code>. In case the next token is a single identifier, we store
its name in the variable <code>$PointA</code>. If this identifier is a defined point name,
we check whether the next token is a comma. In case it is, we check whether
he token after the comma is either the token <code>shift</code>, <code>polar</code>, or
<code>rotate</code> and process each case accordingly. If it is
<a name="NWDCUvTi-1J">none of these tokens we issue an error message and continue with the next</a>
input line. Now, if the token after the identifier isn't a comma, we assume
that the coordinates of the point will be identical to those of the point
whose name has been stored in the variable <code>$PointA</code>. If the identifier is a
variable name, we assume that the x-coordinate is the value of this variable.
We check whether the next token is a comma, and compute the y-coordinate by
calling the subroutine <code>ComputeDist</code>. The x-coordinate is stored in the variable
<code>$Px</code> and the y-coordinate in the variable <code>$Py</code>.

radius is specified, e.g., <tt>[radius=5]</tt>, then the line-free zone will be
applied to the default point character, i.e., <tt>$\bullet$</tt> or whatever it
has been set to. Here is the syntax we employ:

has to be escaped (i.e., <tt>\]</tt>).

</pre><p>The <code>ArrowShape</code> command has either one or three arguments. If the only argument of
the command is the token <code>default</code>, then the parameters associated with the
arrow shape resume their default values. Now, if there are three arguments, these are
used to specify the shape of an arrow. The command actually sets the three global variables
<code>$arrowLength</code>, <code>$arrowAngleB</code> and <code>$arrowAngleC</code>. Arguments whose value is equal
to zero, do not affect the value of the corresponding global variables. To reset the
values of the global variables one should use the commane with <code>default</code> as it
only argument. The syntax of the command is as follows:
<center>
<tt><a name="NWDCUvTi-1W">"ArrowShape" "(" expr  [ units ] "," expr "," expr ")"</a></tt> or<br>
<tt>"ArrowShape" "(" "default" ")"                        </tt>
</center>>
Here <code>units</code> is any valid TeX unit (e.g., "mm", "cm", etc.). Note that if
any of the three expressions is equal to zero, the default value is taken
instead. As direct consequence, if the value of the first expression is zero,
the units part is actually ignored.

is as follows:
<pre>
    system-cmd ::= "system" "(" string ")"
</pre>
<a name="NWDCUvTi-1Y">where string is just a sequence of characters enclosed in quotation marks.</a>
We start by parsing a left parenthesis and then we get the command by
calling the subroutine <code>get_string</code>. If there is an error we skip this
command. Otherwise, we assign to the variable <code>$_</code> what is left. Now we check
if the variable <code>$command</code> contains any tainted data. If it doesn't, we
execute the command, otherwise we print an error message and skip to the
next input line. Next, we check for closing right parenthesis and a possible
trailing comment.

   text ::= ascii string
   coords ::= Coord "," Coord |

   lr-code ::= "l" | "r"
   tb-code ::=  "t" | "b" | "B"
</pre>
Initially, we parse the <code>text</code>. Since the text may contain parentheses
we assume that the user enters pairs of matching parentheses. Note, that
this is a flaw in the original design of the language, which may be remedied
in future releases of the software. Then, we check the <code>coords</code> part. Next,
<a name="NWDCUvTi-1Z">if there is a left square bracket, we assume the user has specified the</a>
<code>pos-code</code>. We conclude by checking a possible trailing comment.

</pre><p> In this section we define the code that handles the coordinates part
<a name="NWDCUvTi-1a">of the </a><code>text</code> command. The code just implements the grammar given above.
If the first token is a number, we assume this is the x-coordinate. If
it is a variable, we assume its value is the x-coordinate. However, if
it is a point name, we check whether the next token is another point name.
In this case we compute the distance between the two points. In case we
have a single point followed by a comma, we expect to have either a polar
or a shift part, which we process the same we processed them in the point
command.

The general rule is that we are allowed to have up to two options one

<code>B</code>, <code>b</code>, and <code>t</code>. We first check whether the next character is
letter, if it isn't we issue an error message and continue with the next
input line. If it is a letter we check whether it belongs to one of the
two groups and if it doesn't we issue an error message and continue with the
next input line. If the next character belongs to first group, i.e., it is
either <code>l</code> or <code>r</code>, we store this character into the variable <code>$pos</code>. Next,
<a name="NWDCUvTi-1b">we check whether there is another letter. If it is a letter, we store it</a>

other group, i.e., it is either <code>b</code>, <code>B</code>, or <code>t</code>. In case it belongs
to the other group, we append the value of <code>$np</code> to the string stored in
the variable <code>$pos</code>. Otherwise we issue an error message and continue with the
next input line. We work similarly for the other case. In order to check
whether a character belongs to some group of characters, we use the user
defined function <code>memberOf</code>.

there is a valid variable name, a <code>=</code> sign, and an expression. The
<code>do-while</code> construct terminates if the next token isn't a comma. The variable
<code>$Varname</code> is used to store the initial variable name, while we store
in the variable <code>$varname</code> the lowercase version of the variable name.
The last thing we do is to check whether there is a trailing comment.
In case there, we simply ignore itl; otherwise we print a warning message.
