% \begin{abstract}
%   ``Abbreviation macros'' expand to defined text and insert following space
%   intelligently, based on context.  They can also expand to one thing the first
%   time they are used and another thing on subsequent invocations.  Thus they
%   can be abbreviations in two senses, in the source and in the document.
%   Useful applications include the abstraction of textual elements such as names
%   without fussing over spacing and the automatic expansion of abbreviations and
%   acronyms at their first use.  The initial and subsequent expansions of an
%   abbreviation macro are available at any time via explicit commands.
%   Abbreviation macros are grouped into categories; there are hooks applicable
%   to each category.  Categories can be reset so that subsequent abbreviation
%   macros in that category behave as if used for the first time again.
%
%   A generic facility is also provided for suffixes like 1900\BC and 6:00\PM,
%   which correctly handles following periods.
% \end{abstract}

%
% \part{Discussion}
%
%   \section{General}
%
% \DescribeMacro{\nospacelist}
%   An abbreviation macro \cs\foo that expands to \meta{text} is robust;
%   \cs\foo can be used in place of \meta{text} almost anywhere.  A space is
%   inserted following an abbreviation macro when the first non-white character
%   following it is \emph{not} in the set \cs\nospacelist, whose default value
%   is \verb*|,.':;?-/~!)]{}\ \/\@xobeysp|.
%
%   When an abbreviation macro has different initial and subsequent expansions,
%   either may be explicitly requested by adding a suffix to the abbreviation
%   macro.  The commands |\|\meta{command}|short| and |\|\meta{command}|long|
%   are also defined whenever an abbreviation macro |\|\meta{command} is
%   defined.  Using the |\|\meta{command}|long| command does not affect what
%   the next abbreviation macros expands to. 
%
%   All abbreviation macros are assigned categories, identified by a string.
%   Four categories are defined by the package, and it is easy to add more.
%   Categories facilitate handling different groups of abbreviation macros in
%   different ways.
%
%   \caveat{Regarding CJK macros and probably other 8-bit input.  If you use
%   the \package{abbrevs} package with the CJK macros for typesetting Chinese,
%   Japanese, and Korean text, you must define your abbreviations within the
%   CJK environment.  I believe that the CJK macros work by interpreting 8-bit
%   input in the source file.  But this input is only interpreted properly
%   within the CJK environment.  If you define the abbrevs outside, such as in
%   the preamble, you will just get a bunch of numbers when your abbreviation
%   expands.}
%
%   I would use capital letters for the name of this macro, since it doesn't
%   seem like a user command to me, but I'm modelling after the kernel's
%   \cs\nocorrlist.

%   referred to by short titles in the main text.  The defining command
%   therefore requires a \BibTeX{} key as an argument.  The first use of the

%
%   \section{Emulation of \package{acromake}}
% We emulate the \package{acromake} package by Paul A.~Thompson (version of
% 1995/7/16 at \url{CTAN:/macros/latex/contrib/other/misc/acromake.sty}).
% \package{Abbrevs} will issue an informative warning when it guesses it is
% about to fail because \package{acromake} is already loaded (we cannot know
% for certain if it is).  I will add an option so that \package{abbrevs} and
% \package{acromake} can both be loaded if anyone persuades me it will be
% useful.
%
% One reason to emulate \package{acromake} with \package{abbrevs} is that it
% can be done easily and by doing so we can avoid keeping two packages around
% when one will do.  Another is that \package{abbrevs} is a more general and
% powerful package which adds value to \package{acromake} functionality.
% \package{Abbrevs} should be a drop-in replacement for \package{acromake}, but
% you can also take advantage of features of \package{abbrevs}: acromake-style
% abbreviations obey \cs\TMInhibitSwitching, and they are defined as their own
% category of abbreviations, \cat{Acromake}, so that \package{acromake}-style
% abbreviations can be manipulated with the general mechanisms available to any
% category.
%
% The following three \package{acromake} user commands are implemented in
% \package{abbrevs}.
%
% \DescribeMacro{\acromake}
% \cs\acromake \marg{csname}\marg{initial text}\marg{final text}  FIX dox
%
% \DescribeMacro{\ACRcnta}
% The macro \cs\ACRcnta contains the number of times (default 1) the initial
% text (full text) is given.  Use \cs\renewcommand to redefine it.
%
% \DescribeMacro{\ACRcntb}
% The macro \cs\ACRcntb contains the number of iterations (default 2) before
% the final text is given.  The intermediate text (final text plus page
% reference) is therefore given $\mbox{|ACRcntb|} - \mbox{|ACRcnta|}$ times.
%
% \DescribeMacro{\AcromakePageref}
% Define the macro \cs\AcromakePageref to contain the text that expresses the
% page reference.  \package{Abbrevs} will replace the string |##1| in the
% definition of this macro with the page number where the abbreviation was
% first used (more precisely, with |\pageref{|\meta{label}|}|).  The default
% value is |(see Page ##1)| for compatibility with \package{acromake}.  The
% styles I am familiar with would call for a lowercase ``page.''
%
% \caveat{\cs\AcromakePageref not implemented yet}
%
%    \subsection{Possible discrepancies}
%  The counter |util| and the macros \cs\pv and \cs\addtomacro are used
%  internally by \package{acromake} and are not defined in \package{abbrevs}.
%  (If you managed to find some use for \cs\addtomacro, you will probably see
%  easily how to redefine it in this context---and if not, write me.)
%
%  The emulation may behave slightly differently due to the difference beteween
%  the way the \package{xspace} package handles following punctuation and space
%  and the way \package{abbrevs} does.  I think \package{abbrevs} is very
%  likely to be as good or better than \package{xspace} at making these
%  decisions.  Let me know if you think otherwise.
%
%   \section{Programmers' interface}
%
% \DescribeMacro{\ResetAbbrevs}
%   When abbreviation macros are reset, their next invocation will expand to
%   the initial text.  Subsequent occurrences will expand to the subsequent
%   text again.  For exmaple, using \cs\ResetAbbrevs|{Name}| at the beginning
%   of chapters will cause the full name to be used only for the first
%   occurrence in each chapter.  \cs\ResetAbbrevs\marg{category list} resets
%   all abbreviation macros of the listed categories.  The list is
%   comma-separated, and the category \cat{All} is a shorthand for all defined
%   categories.   Example:
%   \begin{codeexample}
%     \SaveCS\chapter
%     \renewcommand\chapter {%
%       \ResetAbbrevs{All}%
%       \MDSavedchapter
%     }
%   \end{codeexample}
%
% \DescribeMacro{\NewAbbrevCategory}
% \DescribeMacro{\TMFontAll}
% \DescribeMacro{\TMHookAll}
% \DescribeMacro{\TMResetAll}
% \DescribeMacro{\TMFont<category>}
% \DescribeMacro{\TMHook<category>}
% \DescribeMacro{\TMReset<category>}
%   To create new categories of abbreviation, use
%   \cs\NewAbbrevCategory\marg{category name}.  Macros
%   \cs\TMFont\meta{category}, \cs\TMHook\meta{category}, and
%   \cs\TMReset{}\meta{category} are all reserved.  The hook and font slots
%   start empty.  The virtual category \cat{All} is predefined and refers to
%   all defined categories.  \cs\TMHookAll and \cs\TMFontAll are called
%   \emph{before} the respective category-specific commands.
%
% \DescribeMacro{\NewUserAbbrevDefiner}
%   \cs\NewUserAbbrevDefiner\marg{defining
%   command}\marg{category}\oarg{definer} defines a user command \meta{defining
%   command}.  With the default \meta{definer}, \cs\TMDefineAbbrevStandard,
%   the \meta{defining command} will take the arguments \marg{abbrev
%   command}\marg{initial text}\oarg{subsequent text} and defines
%   \meta{abbrev command} to be a plain or switching abbreviation macro as
%   appropriate.  If given, the optional argument \meta{definer} should be a
%   macro name, which will be first be passed a \marg{category}, then will
%   read user arguments (e.g., in the case of \cs\TMDefineAbbrevStandard,
%   \marg{cs}\marg{initial}\oarg{subsequent}).  The \meta{definer} is
%   expected of course to do something like define \marg{cs}.
%
% \DescribeMacro{\TMInitialSuffix}
% \DescribeMacro{\TMSubsequentSuffix}
%   The factory default suffixes ``short'' and ``long'' may be changed by
%   changing the definitions of \cs\TMSubsequentSuffix and
%   \cs\TMInitialSuffix.  The change should be made after the package is
%   loaded but before any abbreviation macros have been defined.
%
% \DescribeMacro{\DateMark}
%   Abbreviation macros like \cs\PM are defined as \cs\DateMark{}s, like this,
%   without the final period:
%   \begin{codeexample}
%     \newcommand\PM {%
%       \DateMark{p.m}%
%     }
%   \end{codeexample}
%
%  \DescribeMacro{\ifTMInhibitSwitching}
%  \DescribeMacro{\TMInhibitSwitchingfalse}
%  \DescribeMacro{\TMInhibitSwitchingtrue}
%  \DescribeMacro{\ifTMAlwaysLong}
%  \DescribeMacro{\TMAlwaysLongtrue}
%  \DescribeMacro{\TMAlwaysLongfalse}
% When \cname{ifTMInhibitSwitching} is true, first occurrences of an
% abbreviation macro will expand to the initial expansion as usual, but they
% will not trigger the change to subsequent expansions.  Example: inhibit
% switching inside footnotes, and abbreviations will not be spelled out for the
% first and only time in a footnote. That is, if their first appearance is in a
% footnote, their first appearance in the main text will also expand to the
% long version.  See the configuration file for how to do this.
%
% When \cs\TMAlwaysLong is true, every abbreviation macro expands to its
% initial expansion.

%
% Let's begin with the tricky part of inserting space based on context.  The
% strategy is: first, if the following character is not in \cs\nocorr and the
% current font is not slanted, insert an italic correction with
% \cname{sw@slant}; second, if the following character is not in
% \cs\nospacelist, insert a space.
%
% Again, in pseudocode:
% \begin{codeexample}
% LET T = the next token
% IF (slanted font is current AND T NOT IN \nocorrlist)
%   \sw@slant
% FI
% IF T NOT IN \nospacelist
%   \space
% FI
% \end{codeexample}
%
% \begin{macro}{\nospacelist}
%   Put these in the order of their frequency.  Anything in \cs\nocorrlist
%   should also be in here, most likely.  I'm putting in \cname{@xobeysp}

%   would come up.

%
% \begin{macro}{\maybe@ic@space}
% \begin{macro}{\maybe@ic@space@}

%
% \vspace{7ex}^^A kludge to handle all those macro names 
% \begin{macro}{\TMNewAbbrevSwitcher}
%   Here is the main abbreviation macro definer.  It works by defining two
%   macros, one for the initial text and one for the subsequent text, and
%   setting up a third user command to choose between the two as appropriate.
%   (The first two are made available to the user by explicit call as well.)
%   The function used to define the two macros is passed as the first argument
%   to this function.  Supplied definers are \cs\TMNewAbbrevPlain (I will
%   write \cs\TMNewAbbrevWork and \cs\TMNewAbbrevDotclose soon FIX).  The
%   second argument is the category---each definer takes at least three
%   arguments: a command name, a category, and the content.  The third argument
%   is the user macro name to be created, and the fourth and fifth arguments
%   are the initial and subsequent expansion texts.
%
%   The first part sets three token variables to the three command sequences
%   that this macro is going to define---the user, initial, and subsequent
%   commands.  The user command checks its associated boolean variable to see
%   whether it has been called before.  If so, it calls the ``subsequent''
%   macro; if not, the ``initial'' macro.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\newcommand\TMNewAbbrevSwitcher [5] {% args: definer category csname 
%                                    %       initial subseq.
  \expandafter#1\csname #3\TMInitialSuffix\endcsname{#2}{#4}
  \expandafter#1\csname #3\TMSubsequentSuffix\endcsname{#2}{#5}
  \newboolean{@#3@mentioned}
  \expandafter\g@addto@macro\csname TMReset#2\endcsname {%
    \global\csname @#3@mentionedfalse\endcsname
  }
%    \end{macrocode}
%   We've created the initial and subsequent macros, and the boolean.  Now we
%   define the user macro.  This definition is tricky.  In pseudocode, it looks
%   like this:
% \begin{codeexample}
% if #3 definable then
%   #3 := { if (#3-mentioned AND NOT TMAlwaysLong) then
%             #3-short
%           else 
%             if NOT TMInhibitSwitching then #3-mentioned := (global) true
%             #3-long
%           fi }
% fi
% \end{codeexample}
% Hmm, I'm not sure this is any more readable than a sea of
% \cs\expandafter\cs\noexpand{}s.
%
% Notice that in a switching abbrev, the -mentioned boolean is set to true
% \emph{before} calling the macro itself, so that the hook can check and
% possibly alter the value.  The \package{acromake} emulation takes advantage
% of this.

%   \section{Emulation of \package{Acromake}}
%
% \caveat{This code is a \emph{mess!}  Consider all but the user functions
% ``internal.''  I will reimplement it all another time.  Meanwhile it works,
% and the user interface is \package{acromake}'s anyway, so it won't change.}
%
% \begin{macro}{\TMResetAcromake}
% \begin{macro}{\TMFontAcromake}
% \begin{macro}{\TMHookAcromake}
% \begin{macro}{\TMHookAcromakeHook}
% \begin{macro}{\TMAcromakeSecondarySuffix}
% \begin{macro}{\acromake}
% \begin{macro}{\tm@acromake@pageref}
%   Define the category \cat{Acromake} and declare its user defining
%   command to be \cs\acromake.  Create a suffix \TMAcromakeSecondarySuffix
%   analogous to \cs\TMInitialSuffix and \cs\TMSubsequentSuffix.
%
% Instead of building more generality into \package{abbrevs}, I emulate
% \package{acromake} with a few hacks, since I don't see a \emph{general} need
% for more than two expansions.  Counting iterations, on the other hand, is
% something I would like to do for all abbrevs.  Doing so is tantamount to
% replacing the present |-mentioned| booleans with ``counter'' macros.
%
% The emulation is done in the following way.  Let's call the three expansions
% of an \package{acromake} macro the \meta{am-initial}, \meta{am-secondary},
% and \meta{am-subsequent} expansions, in order.  These must be mapped onto the
% \package{abbrevs} concepts of \term{inital} and \term{subsequent} expansions.
% The \cs\acromake command as I define it here defines a switching abbrev whose
% initial text contains \meta{am-initial} and subsequent text contains
% \meta{am-subsequent}.  It also defines a plain abbrev with a suffix
% \cs\TMAcroSecondarySuffix (analogous to \cs\TMInitialSuffix and
% \cs\TMSubsequentSuffix) that expands to \meta{am-secondary}.  In a switching
% abbrev, the associated |-mentioned| boolean is set to |true| \emph{before}
% calling the macro itself (and therefore its hook).  The hook can therefore
% reset the boolean to |false|, and I do this in \cs\TMHookAcromake until it is
% time to go from the \meta{am-initial} to the \meta{am-secondary} expansions.
% \cs\TMInhibitSwitching affects the \cat{Acromake} category like all others,
% and \cs\TMResetAcromake behaves as expected.

% We handle inhibition of switching as follows.  If the count is $-1$, this is
% the first iteration, so make the \cs\label, increment the count to $0$, and
% proceed.  If switching is not inhibited, increment the counter.  Then proceed
% with choosing the right expansion based on the counter.  A first iteration in
% the normal case will therefore increment the counter twice from $-1$ to $1$.
% A first iteration in the case that switching is inhibited will advance the
% counter once to $0$, where it will stay until switching is permitted.
