-
- <$macro LIFLAG SHORT:string/r LONG:string/r ONLYDEFTAG:bool>
- <DT><CODE>/<(long)></CODE>
- (short: <CODE>/<(short)></CODE>)
- <DD>
- </$macro>
-
- <P>Within <ln_macro> and <ln_deftag>,
- you can use several modifiers to tell <hsc> how to handle this macro/tag.</P>
-
-
- Allowed modifiers for both <ln_macro> and <ln_deftag> are:
- <DL>
- <LIFLAG long="CLOSE" short="C">
- macro/tag is a container and requires a corresponding end tag.
-
- <LIFLAG long="ONLYONCE" short="1">
- macro/tag is required at the most once within a document
-
- <LIFLAG long="REQUIRED" short="R">
- macro/tag is required to appear at least once within a document
-
- <LIFLAG long="RECOMMENDED" short="RCMD">
- macro/tag ought to appear least once within a document
-
- <LIFLAG long="MUST_BE_INSIDE" short="MBI">
- Needs a string as argument, that contains a list of container tags,
- that must be started before tag is allowed to be used.<BR>
- Example:<BR>
- The tag <TG>LI</TG> must be used inside some sort of lists only,
- therefor it's <CODE>/MBI="ul|ol|dir|menu"</CODE> is used.
- The <vbar> is used as a separator for multiple tags.
-
- <LIFLAG long="NOT_ALLOWED_WITHIN" short="NAW">
- Like <CODE>/MBI</CODE>, but this time tags that must not be
- used before. For example, a nested usage of <TG>A</TG>
- is not allowed, therefor <CODE>/NAW="a"</CODE> is used.
- </DL>
-
- Additionally, the following modifiers can be used with <ln_deftag>
- <DL>
- <LIFLAG long="AUTOCLOSE" short="AC">
- Used for <TG>P</TG> and <TG>LI</TG>, which can be used as container
- or single tag depending on the HTML version. Tags marked with this
- modifier can not be nested.
- <LIFLAG long="JERK" short="J" ONLYDEFTAG>
- tag is only used by jerks
- <LIFLAG long="LAZY" short="L" ONLYDEFTAG>
- This modifier has just been for my laziness and defines some
- often needed attributes with a single letter;
- <qq><CODE>c</CODE></qq> for <qq><CODE>CLASS:string</CODE></qq>,
- <qq><CODE>h</CODE></qq> for <qq><CODE>HREF:uri</CODE></qq>,
- <qq><CODE>i</CODE></qq> for <qq><CODE>ID:id</CODE></qq>,
- <qq><CODE>k</CODE></qq> for <qq><CODE>CLEAR:bool</CODE></qq>,
- <qq><CODE>l</CODE></qq> for <qq><CODE>LANG:string</CODE></qq>,
- <qq><CODE>m</CODE></qq> for <qq><CODE>MD:string</CODE></qq>,
- <qq><CODE>s</CODE></qq> for <qq><CODE>SRC:uri</CODE></qq>,
- <qq><CODE>w</CODE></qq> for <qq><CODE>NOWRAP:bool</CODE></qq>.<BR>
- For example, use <CODE>/LAZY="cil"</CODE>.
- <LIFLAG long="OBSOLETE" short="O">
- tag is obsolete and should not be used any more. This eg.
- concerns <TG>LISTING</TG>.
- <LIFLAG long="SKIPLF" short="S">
- skip a linefeed ("\n") that comes immediately after the tag. This
- is only useful for some of <hsc>'s special tags and only avoids
- some unnecessary empty lines.
- <LIFLAG long="SPECIAL" short="SPC">
- This one marks tags which are no normal tags with some attributes,
- but have their own syntax. The only html tag which has this modifier
- set is <TG>!</TG> (for SGML comments).
- <LIFLAG long="WHTSPC" short="W">
- If this modifier is set, any occurrence of the container is checked
- for succeeding/preceding white spaces. By default, this concerns
- the tags <TG>A</TG>, <TG>TITLE</TG>, headings and physical/logical
- styles like <TG>B</TG> or <TG>strong</TG>.
