LaTeXML...Register(3)

💅 LaTeXML...Register(3) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to LaTeXML...Register(3), a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation. This is the whole vibe: register definitions for LaTeXML, and no cap, every little detail is staying. 🦋

🌸 NAME 🌸

LaTeXML::Core::Definition::Register — Control sequence definitions for Registers. ✨

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

So these things are set up as a specialized primitive, and they come with a getter and a setter to access and store values in the Stomach. Iconic, honestly. If you want the most convenient way to create them, see LaTeXML::Package — that's the main character for making these. 💖

It extends LaTeXML::Core::Definition::Primitive. Slay.

Registers generally store some value in the current LaTeXML::Core::State, but they are not required to. Like TeX's registers, when they are digested, they expect an optional =, and then a value of the appropriate type. Register definitions support these additional methods:

🧚 Methods 🧚

• $value = $register->valueOf(@args); — Returns the value associated with the register, by invoking its getter function. The additional args are used by some registers to index into a set, such as the index to \count. 🍓
• $register->setValue($value,$scope,@args); — Assigns a value to the register, by invoking its setter function. 💅
