% \begin{abstract}
% This package manages the callback adding and removing, by adding
% \texttt{callback.add} and \texttt{callback.remove}, and overwriting
% \texttt{callback.register}. It also allows to create and call new callbacks.
% For an introduction on this package (among others), please refer to the
% document \texttt{luatextra-reference.pdf}.
% \par\textbf{Warning.} Currently assumes that \textsf{luatexbase-modutils}
% has been previously loaded. (This is a temporary limitation.)

%
% \section{Documentation}
%
% Lua\TeX\ provides an extremely interesting feature, named callbacks. It
% allows to call some lua functions at some points of the \TeX\ algorithm (a
% \emph{callback}), like when \TeX\ breaks likes, puts vertical spaces, etc.
% The Lua\TeX\ core offers a function called \texttt{callback.register} that
% enables to register a function in a callback.
%
% The problem with \texttt{callback.register} is that is registers only one
% function in a callback. For a lot of callbacks it can be common to have
% several packages registering their function in a callback, and thus it is
% impossible with them to be compatible with each other.
%
% This package solves this problem by adding mainly one new function
% \texttt{callback.\\add} that adds a function in a callback. With this
% function it is possible for packages to register their function in a
% callback without overwriting the functions of the other packages.
%
% The functions are called in a certain order, and when a package registers a
% callback it can assign a priority to its function. Conflicts can still
% remain even with the priority mechanism, for example in the case where two
% packages want to have the highest priority. In these cases the packages have
% to solve the conflicts themselves.
%
% This package also privides a way to create and call new callbacks, in
% addition to the default Lua\TeX\ callbacks.
%
% \subsubsection*{Limitations}
%
% This package only works for callbacks where it's safe to add multiple
% functions without changing the functions' signatures. There are callbacks,
% though, where registering several functions is not possible without changing
% the function's signatures, like for example the readers callbacks. These
% callbacks take a filename and give the datas in it. One solution would be to
% change the functions' signature to open it when the function is the first,
% and to take the datas and modify them eventually if they are called after
% the first. But it seems rather fragile and useless, so it's not implemented.
% With these callbacks, in this package we simply execute the first function
% in the list.
%
% Other callbacks in this case are \texttt{define\_font} and
% \texttt{open\_read\_file}. There is though a solution for several packages
% to use these callbacks, see the implementation of \texttt{luatextra}.

%
%    \subsubsection{Initialisations}
%
%    \texttt{callbacklist} is the main list, that contains the callbacks as
%    keys and a table of the registered functions a values.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
local callbacklist = callbacklist or { }
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    A table with the default functions of the created callbacks. See
%    \texttt{create} for further informations.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
local lua_callbacks_defaults = { }
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    There are 4 types of callback:
%    \begin{itemize}
%    \item the ones taking a list of nodes and returning a boolean and
%    eventually a new head (\texttt{list})
%    \item the ones taking datas and returning the modified ones
%    (\texttt{data})
%    \item the ones that can't have multiple functions registered in them
%    (\texttt{first})
%    \item the ones for functions that don't return anything (\texttt{simple})
%    \end{itemize}
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
local list = 1
local data = 2
local first = 3
local simple = 4
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    \texttt{callbacktypes} is the list that contains the callbacks as keys
%    and the type (list or data) as values.
%

%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    In Lua\TeX\ version 0.43, a new callback called |process_output_buffer|
%    appeared, so we enable it. Test the version using the compat package for,
%    well, compatibility.
%

%    \texttt{internalregister}.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}

%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    \subsubsection{Unsorted stuff}
%
%    A simple function we'll use later to understand the arguments of the
%    \texttt{create} function. It takes a string and returns the type
%    corresponding to the string or nil.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}

    end
end
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%     This function and the following ones are only internal. This one is the

%     and return true, false, or a new list head.

%    \end{macrocode}
%
%     The handler for callbacks taking datas and returning modified ones.
%

end
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%     This function is for the handlers that don't support more than one

        end
    end
end
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    \subsubsection{Public functions}
%
%    The main function. The signature is \texttt{add (name,
%    func, description, priority)} with \texttt{name} being the name of the
%    callback in which the function is added; \texttt{func} is the added
%    function; \texttt{description} is a small character string describing the
%    function, and \texttt{priority} an optional argument describing the
%    priority the function will have.
%
%    The functions for a callbacks are added in a list (in
%    \texttt{callbacklist\\.callbackname}). If they have no
%    priority or a high priority number, they will be added at the end of the
%    list, and will be called after the others. If they have a low priority
%    number, the will be added at the beginning of the list and will be called
%    before the others.
%
%    Something that must be made clear, is that there is absolutely no
%    solution for packages conflicts: if two packages want the top priority on
%    a certain callback, they will have to decide the priority they will give
%    to their function themselves. Most of the time, the priority is not needed.
