Functions
| interwordSpace () | Measure an inter-word space (which, depending on settings, might be variable and thus have stretch/shrink). |
| castKern (kern) | Cast a kern length (e.g., as found in styles), also supporting the special "iwsp" pseudo-unit for interword space. |
| recursiveTableMerge (t1, t2) | Merge two tables. |
Functions
- interwordSpace ()
-
Measure an inter-word space (which, depending on settings, might be variable
and thus have stretch/shrink).
Returns:
-
SILE.types.length
interwordSpace
- castKern (kern)
-
Cast a kern length (e.g., as found in styles), also supporting the special "iwsp"
pseudo-unit for interword space.
Parameters:
- kern string or SILE.types.length The kern value to cast
Returns:
-
SILE.types.length
The kern value as a length
- recursiveTableMerge (t1, t2)
-
Merge two tables.
It turns out that pl.tablex.union() does not recurse into the table,
so let's do it the proper way.
N.B. modifies t1 (and t2 wins on "leaves" existing in both tables)
Parameters:
Returns:
-
table
The merged table
