Then it scans for an optional equal and when that is found it will skip the -%D next space, which is why we need an extra one to achieve our goal. Such a \type -%D {\blankspace} has the meaning \typ {blank space}.

It is expected that \ETEX\ will offer a less memory||consuming -%D alternative. -%D -%D Although it will probably never be a big problem, it is good to be aware of the -%D difference between testing on a macro name to be build by using \type {\csname} and -%D \type {\endcsname} and testing the \type {\name} directly. -%D -%D \starttyping -%D \expandafter\ifx\csname NameA\endcsname\relax ... \else ... \fi -%D -%D \ifundefined\NameB ... \else ... \fi -%D \stoptyping -%D -%D Suppression of errors while constructing a control sequence is one of the (few) -%D things that I remember being discussed in the perspective of \ETEX\ but it was -%D rejected because it was not considered useful. Well, in \LUATEX\ we can surpress -%D it and that is what we do in \MKIV. We're probably the only macro package that -%D needs it. That kind of configuration happens elsewhere.

Therefore the next set of \type {ifthenelse} -%D commands were between the first ones we needed. A few years later, the opposite -%D became true: when programming in \MODULA, I sometimes miss handy things like -%D grouping, runtime redefinition, expansion etc. While \MODULA\ taught me to -%D structure, \TEX\ taught me to think recursive. -%D -%D \starttyping -%D \doif {string1} {string2} {...} -%D \doifnot {string1} {string2} {...} -%D \doifelse {string1} {string2} {then ...}{else ...} -%D \stoptyping -%D -%D Again, we use some of the new primitives in \LUAMETATEX.

It is -%D nevertheless better to define a \COUNTER\ explicitly.

The \COUNTER\ in our example can for instance be -%D defined with: -%D -%D \starttyping -%D \newcounter\counter -%D \stoptyping -%D -%D The command \type {\newcounter} must not be confused with \type {\newcount}! Of -%D course this mechanism is much slower than using \TEX's \COUNTERS\ directly. In -%D practice \COUNTERS\ (and therefore our pseudo counters too) are seldom the -%D bottleneck in the processing of a text.

When macros expect an -%D argument, it interprets a grouped sequence of characters a one token.
