% \section {Token list pointers}
%
% \LaTeX3 stores token lists in so called `token list pointers'.
% Variables of this type get the suffix "tlp" and functions of this type
% have the prefix "tlp". To use a  token list pointer you simply call
% the corresponding variable.
%
% Often you find yourself with not a token list pointer but an
% arbitrary token list which has to undergo certain tests. We will
% prefix these functions with "tlist". While token list pointers are
% always single tokens, token lists are always surrounded by
% braces. Perhaps these token lists should have their own module but
% for now I decided to put them here because there is quite a bit of
% overlap with token list pointers.

% \begin{syntax}
%    "\tlp_new:Nn" <tlp> "{" <initial token list> "}"
% \end{syntax}
% Defines <tlp> to be a new variable (or constant) of type token list
% pointer. <initial token list> is the initial value of <tlp>. This
% makes it possible to assign values to a constant token list pointer.

%   "\tlp_use:N" <tlp>
% \end{syntax}
% Function that inserts the <tlp> into the processing stream.

%  \end{syntax}
%  Runs through all elements in a |tlist| from left to right and places
%  <function> in front of each element. As this function will also pick
%  up elements in brace groups, the element is returned with braces and
%  hence <function> should be a function with a |:n| suffix even though
%  it may very well only deal with a single token. This function uses a
%  purely expandable loop function and will stay so as long as
%  <function> is expandable too.

%  Allows a syntax like "\tlist_map_inline:nn" "{"<tlist>"}"

%  Remember to double the "#"s for each level.

%  Assigns <temp> to each element on <tlist> and executes <action>.
%  As there is an assignment in this process it is not expandable.
%  \begin{texnote}
%  This is the \LaTeX2{} function \tn{@tfor} but with a more sane syntax.
%  Also it works by tail recursion and so is faster as lists grow longer.

%  \end{syntax}
%  Reverse the token list to result in

%   Replacing the first item in a token list pointer goes like this:
%   Define a temporary function with delimited arguments containing
%   the search term and take a closer look at what is left. We append
%   the expansion of the tlp with the search term plus the quark
%   |\q_no_value|. If the search term isn't present this last one is
%   found and the following token is the quark, so we test for
%   that. If the search term is present we will have to split off the
%   |#3\q_no_value| we had, so we define yet another function with
%   delimited arguments to do this. The advantage here is that now we
%   have a special end sequence so there is no problem if the search
%   term appears more than once. Only problem left is to prevent brace
%   stripping in both ends, so we prepend the expansion of the tlp
%   with |\q_mark| later to be gobbled and also prepend the remainder
%   of the first split operation with |\q_mark| also to be gobbled
%   again later on.
