%
% This module deals with manipulation of (formatted) text; such material is
% comprised of a restricted set of token list content. The functions provided
% here concern conversion of textual content for example in case changing,
% generation of bookmarks and extraction to tags. All of the major functions
% operate by expansion. Begin-group and end-group tokens in the \meta{text}
% are normalized and become |{| and |}|, respectively.
%
% \section{Expanding text}
%
% \begin{function}[EXP, added = 2020-01-02, updated = 2023-06-09]
%   {\text_expand:n}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{text_expand:n} \Arg{text}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Takes user input \meta{text} and expands the content.
%   Protected commands (typically
%   formatting) are left in place, and no processing of
%   math mode material (as delimited by pairs given in
%   \cs{l_text_math_delims_tl} or as the argument to commands listed
%   in \cs{l_text_math_arg_tl}) takes place. Commands which are neither engine-
%   nor \LaTeX{}-protected are expanded exhaustively.
%   Any commands listed in \cs{l_text_expand_exclude_tl} are excluded from
%   expansion, as are those in \cs{l_text_case_exclude_arg_tl} and
%   \cs{l_text_math_arg_tl}.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[added = 2020-01-22]
%   {
%     \text_declare_expand_equivalent:Nn ,
%     \text_declare_expand_equivalent:cn
%   }
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{text_declare_expand_equivalent:Nn} \meta{cmd} \Arg{replacement}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Declares that the \meta{replacement} tokens should be used whenever the
%   \meta{cmd} (a single token) is encountered. The \meta{replacement} tokens
%   should be expandable. A token can be \enquote{replaced} by itself if
%   the defined replacement wraps it in \cs{exp_not:n}, for example
%   \begin{verbatim}
%     \text_declare_expand_equivalent:Nn \' { \exp_not:n { \' } }
%   \end{verbatim}
% \end{function}
%
% \section{Case changing}
%
% \begin{function}[EXP, added = 2019-11-20, updated = 2023-07-08]
%   {
%     \text_lowercase:n,  \text_uppercase:n,  \text_titlecase_all:n,
%       \text_titlecase_first:n,
%     \text_lowercase:nn, \text_lowercase:Vn, \text_lowercase:en,
%     \text_uppercase:nn, \text_uppercase:Vn, \text_uppercase:en,
%     \text_titlecase_all:nn, \text_titlecase_all:Vn,
%       \text_titlecase_all:en,
%     \text_titlecase_first:nn, \text_titlecase_first:Vn,
%       \text_titlecase_first:en
%   }
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{text_uppercase:n}  \Arg{tokens}
%     \cs{text_uppercase:nn} \Arg{BCP-47} \Arg{tokens}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Takes user input \meta{text} first applies \cs{text_expand:n}, then
%   transforms the case of character tokens as specified by the
%   function name. The category code of letters are not changed by this
%   process when Unicode engines are used; in $8$-bit engines, case changed
%   charters in the ASCII range will have the current prevailing category code,
%   while those outside of it will be represented by active characters.
% \end{function}
%
%   Upper- and lowercase have the obvious meanings. Titlecasing may be regarded
%   informally as converting the first \emph{non-space} character of the
%   \meta{tokens} to uppercase. However, the process is more complex
%   than this as there are some situations where a single lowercase character
%   maps to a special form, for example \texttt{ij} in Dutch which becomes
%   \texttt{IJ}. There are two functions available for titlecasing: one which
%   applies the change to each \enquote{word} and a second which only applies
%   at the start of the input. (Here, \enquote{word} boundaries are spaces:
%   at present, full Unicode word breaking is not attempted.)
%
%   Importantly, notice that these functions are intended for working with
%   user \emph{text for typesetting}. For case changing programmatic data see
%   the \pkg{l3str} module and discussion there of \cs{str_lowercase:n},
%   \cs{str_uppercase:n} and \cs{str_casefold:n}.
%
%   Case changing does not take place within math mode material so for example
%   \begin{verbatim}
%     \text_uppercase:n { Some~text~$y = mx + c$~with~{Braces} }
%   \end{verbatim}
%   becomes
%   \begin{verbatim}
%     SOME TEXT $y = mx + c$ WITH {BRACES}
%   \end{verbatim}
%
%   The first mandatory argument of commands listed in
%   \cs{l_text_case_exclude_arg_tl}
%   is excluded from case changing; the latter are entirely non-textual
%   content (such as labels).
%
%   The standard mappings
%   here follow those defined by the \href{http://www.unicode.org}^^A
%   {Unicode Consortium} in \texttt{UnicodeData.txt} and
%   \texttt{SpecialCasing.txt}. For \pTeX{}, only the ASCII range is
%   covered as the engine treats input outside of this range as east Asian.
%
%   Locale-sensitive conversions are enabled using the \meta{BCP-47}
%   argument, and follow Unicode Consortium guidelines. Currently, the
%   locale strings recognized for special handling are as follows.
%   \begin{itemize}
%     \item Armenian (\texttt{hy} and \texttt{hy-x-yiwn})
%       The setting \texttt{hy} maps the codepoint U+0587, the ligature of
%       letters ech and yiwn, to the codepoints for capital ech and vew
%       when uppercasing: this follows the spelling reform which is used
%       in Armenia. The alternative \texttt{hy-x-yiwn} maps U+0587 to
%       capital ech and yiwn on uppercasing (also the output if Armenian
%       is not selected at all).
%     \item Azeri and Turkish (\texttt{az} and \texttt{tr}).
%       The case pairs I/i-dotless and I-dot/i are activated for these
%       languages. The combining dot mark is removed when lowercasing
%       I-dot and introduced when upper casing i-dotless.
%     \item German (\texttt{de-x-eszett}).
%       An alternative mapping for German in which the lowercase
%       \emph{Eszett} maps to a \emph{gro\ss{}es Eszett}.
%     \item Greek (\texttt{el}).
%       Removes accents from Greek letters when uppercasing; titlecasing
%       leaves accents in place. A variant \texttt{el-x-iota} is available
%       which converts the \textit{ypogegrammeni} (subscript muted iota)
%       to capital iota when uppercasing: the standard version retains the
%       subscript versions.
%     \item Lithuanian (\texttt{lt}).
%       The lowercase letters i and j should retain a dot above when the
%       accents grave, acute or tilde are present. This is implemented for
%       lowercasing of the relevant uppercase letters both when input as
%       single Unicode codepoints and when using combining accents. The
%       combining dot is removed when uppercasing in these cases. Note that
%       \emph{only} the accents used in Lithuanian are covered: the behavior
%       of other accents are not modified.
%     \item Medieval Latin (\texttt{la-x-medieval}).
%      The characters |u| and |V| are interchanged on case changing.
%     \item Dutch (\texttt{nl}).
%       Capitalization of \texttt{ij} at the beginning of titlecased
%       input produces \texttt{IJ} rather than \texttt{Ij}.
%   \end{itemize}
%
%  Determining whether non-letter characters at the start of text should count
%  as the uppercase element is controllable. When
%  \cs{l_text_titlecase_check_letter_bool} is \texttt{true}, codepoints which are
%  not letters (Unicode general category \texttt{L}) are not changed, and only
%  the first \emph{letter} is uppercased.
%  When \cs{l_text_titlecase_check_letter_bool} is \texttt{false}, the first
%  codepoint is uppercased, irrespective of the general code of the character.

%   \end{syntax}
%   Declares that the \meta{replacement} tokens should be used when case mapping
%   the \meta{codepoint}, rather than the standard mapping given in the
%   Unicode data files. The \texttt{nnn} version takes a BCP-47 tag, which
%   can be used to specify that the customization only applies to that
%   locale.

%   Context-sensitive function which will expand to one of the \meta{normal},
%   \meta{upper}, \meta{lower} or \meta{title} tokens depending on the current

% \section{Removing formatting from text}
%
% \begin{function}[EXP, added = 2020-03-05, updated = 2020-05-14]

%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{text_purify:n} \Arg{text}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Takes user input \meta{text} and expands as described for
%   \cs{text_expand:n}, then removes all functions from the resulting
%   text. Math mode material (as delimited by pairs given in
%   \cs{l_text_math_delims_tl} or as the argument to commands listed in
%   \cs{l_text_math_arg_tl}) is left contained in a pair of |$| delimiters.
%   Non-expandable functions present in the \meta{text} must either have a
%   defined equivalent (see \cs{text_declare_purify_equivalent:Nn}) or will
%   be removed from the result. Implicit tokens are converted to their
%   explicit equivalent.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[added = 2020-03-05]
%   {
%     \text_declare_purify_equivalent:Nn ,
%     \text_declare_purify_equivalent:Ne
%   }
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{text_declare_purify_equivalent:Nn} \meta{cmd} \Arg{replacement}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Declares that the \meta{replacement} tokens should be used whenever the
%   \meta{cmd} (a single token) is encountered. The \meta{replacement} tokens
%   should be expandable.
% \end{function}
%
% \section{Control variables}
%
% \begin{variable}{\l_text_math_arg_tl}
%   Lists commands present in the \meta{text} where the argument of the
%   command should be treated as math mode material. The treatment here is
%   similar to \cs{l_text_math_delims_tl} but for a command rather than
%   paired delimiters.
% \end{variable}
%
% \begin{variable}{\l_text_math_delims_tl}
%   Lists pairs of tokens which delimit (in-line) math mode content; such
%   content \emph{may} be excluded from processing.
% \end{variable}
%
% \begin{variable}{\l_text_case_exclude_arg_tl}
%   Lists commands where the first mandatory argument is excluded from
%   case changing.
% \end{variable}
%
% \begin{variable}{\l_text_expand_exclude_tl}
%   Lists commands which are excluded from expansion. This protection
%   includes everything up to and including their first braced argument.
% \end{variable}
%
% \begin{variable}{\l_text_titlecase_check_letter_bool}
%   Controls how the start of titlecasing is handled: when \texttt{true}, the
%   first \emph{letter} in text is considered. The standard setting is
%   \texttt{true}.
% \end{variable}
%
% \section{Mapping to text}
%
% Grapheme splitting is implemented using the algorithm described in Unicode
% Standard Annex \#29. This includes support for extended grapheme clusters.
% Leading line feeds or carriage returns will be dropped due to standard
% \TeX{} processing. At present extended pictograms are
% not supported: these may be added in a future release. Some aspects of Indic
% grapheme breaking, introduced in Unicode~15, are also currently absent.
% In these functions, math mode is treated as a single indivisible unit,
% i.e.~one \enquote{word} or grapheme.

%   Broadly a grapheme is a \enquote{user perceived character}:
%   the Unicode Consortium describe the decomposition of input to
%   graphemes in depth, and the approach used here implements that
%   algorithm. The \meta{function} should accept one argument as
%   \meta{balanced text}: this may comprise codepoints or it may be a

%
% \subsection{Support utilities}
%
% Implementing text functions requires some support interfaces which do not
% directly handle text input but are best provided in this module.
%
% \begin{function}[rEXP, added = 2026-02-06]{\text_bcp_parse:n}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{text_bcp_parse:n} \Arg{BCP~47}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Used to parse a BCP~47 string to allow branching in text processing:
%   see \url{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IETF_language_tag} for an
%   introduction to BCP~47 tags. The \meta{BCP~47} input is converted to a
%   string and parsed such that full expansion results in seven brace
%   groups for any valid input. Other than the first brace group,
%   these may be empty. Where multiple subtags are allowed for one type
%   (for example variant), nested brace groups are created. The full list
%   is
%   \begin{enumerate}
%     \item The language subtag, for example |en| (English) or |gsw|
%       (Swiss German/Schweizerdeutsch); this is the only required subtag
%       and so will always have content if the input was valid.
%     \item Extended language subtags: may contain up to three
%       brace groups for these subtags, for example |en-419|
%       will product |{419}| as the content of this subtag.
%     \item The script subtag, for example |Latn|
%     \item The region subtag, for example |GB|
%     \item Variant subtags: contains an open-ended list of braced
%       groups, each containing one variant.
%     \item Extension subtags. The result here will comprise of the
%        extension identifier (a single letter) followed by a brace
%        group containing nested brace groups of each subtag. For example,
%        the full input |gsw-u-sd-chzh| (Swiss German as used in the Canton
%        of Zurich) would result in the extension subtag group containing
%        |u{{sd}{chzh}}|.
%     \item Private-use subtags: contains an open-ended list of braced
%       groups, each containing one private subtag.
%   \end{enumerate}
%   Whilst the result of expansion is a token list, the parsed material is
%   detokenized, i.e.~all category code 12 (spaces are not possible). The
%   output of the function is case folded.

%   the category code and generate the char. To avoid issues with alignment
%   tabs, that one is done by elimination rather than looking up the code
%   explicitly. The trick with finding the charcode is that the \TeX{}
%   messages are either \texttt{the \meta{something} character \meta{char}}

%   After precautions against |&| tokens, start a simple loop: that of
%   course means that \enquote{text} cannot contain the two recursion
%   quarks. The loop here must be \texttt{f}-type expandable; we have
%   arbitrary user commands which might be protected \emph{and} take
%   arguments, and if the expansion code is used in a typesetting
%   context, that will otherwise explode. (The same issue applies more
%   clearly to case changing: see the example there.) The outer
%   loop has to use scan marks as delimiters to protect against
%   unterminated \tn{romannumeral} usage in the input.

%   The first step in dealing with \texttt{N}-type tokens is to look for

%   first before we can trigger the search. We then look for matching
%   pairs of delimiters, allowing for the case where math mode starts
%   but does not end. Within math mode, we simply pass all the tokens
%   through unchanged, just checking the \texttt{N}-type ones against the
%   end marker.

%   At this stage, either we have a control sequence or a simple character:

%   representation we can deal with in further processing. The tests for
%   explicit parts of the \LaTeXe{} UTF-8 mechanism cover the case of
%   bookmarks, where definitions change and are no longer protected. The
%   same is true for \pkg{babel} shorthands. Ideally, all implicit tokens would
%   be converted to their explicit equivalents here. However, that runs into
%   issues with constructs that use \tn{chardef} or similar tokens. The one
%   case we do convert is \cs{exp_stop_f:}, as that is predictable and should
%   output a space.

%   \cs{exp_not:n}, as that must apply to the following balanced text.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\cs_new:Npn \@@_expand_cs_expand:N #1
  {
    \@@_if_expandable:NTF #1
      {
        \token_if_eq_meaning:NNTF #1 \exp_not:n
          { \@@_expand_unexpanded:w }
          { \exp_after:wN \@@_expand_loop:w #1 }
      }
      {
        \@@_expand_store:n {#1}
        \@@_expand_loop:w
      }
  }
%    \end{macrocode}
%   Since \cs{exp_not:n} is actually a primitive, it allows a strange syntax
%   and it particular the primitive expands what follows and discards spaces
%   and \cs{scan_stop:} until finding a braced argument (the opening brace
%   can be implicit but we will not support this here).  Here, we repeatedly
%   |f|-expand after such an \cs{exp_not:n}, and test what follows.  If
%   it is a brace group, then we found the intended argument of
%   \cs{exp_not:n}.  If it is a space, then the next |f|-expansion will
%   eliminate it.  If it is an |N|-type token then
%   \cs{@@_expand_unexpanded:N} leaves the token to be expanded if it is
%   expandable, and otherwise removes it, assuming that it is
%   \cs{scan_stop:}.  This silently hides errors when \cs{exp_not:n} is
%   incorrectly followed by some non-expandable token other than
%   \cs{scan_stop:}, but this should be pretty rare, and there is no good
%   error recovery anyways.
