% \section{Plain \TeX}
%
% \LaTeX\ includes almost all of the functionality of Knuth's original
% `Basic Macros' That is, the plain \TeX\ format described in Appendix~B
% of the \TeX{}Book.  However, some of the user commands are not much
% use so, in order to save memory, we may remove them from the kernel
% into a package.  Here is a list of the commands that may be removed
% (PROBABLY NOT COMPLETE).
% \begin{verbatim}
%    \magstep    \magstephalf
%    \mathhexbox
%    \vglue      \vgl@
%    \hglue      \hgl@
% \end{verbatim}
% 
% This file is by now very small as most of it has been moved to more
% appropriate kernel files: it may disappear completely one day.
% 
% \LaTeX\ font definitions are done using NFSS2 so none of PLAIN's
% font definitions are in \LaTeX.
%
% \LaTeX\ has its own tabbing environment, so PLAIN's is disabled.
%
% \LaTeX{} uses its own output routine, so most of the plain one was
% removed.

% We had to define the |\catcodes| right away, before the message line,
% since |\message| uses the |{| and |}| characters.
% When INITEX (the \TeX\ initializer) starts up,
% it has defined the following |\catcode| values:\\
% |\catcode`\^^@=9 % | ascii null is ignored\\
% |\catcode`\^^M=5 % | ascii return is end-line\\
% |\catcode`\\=0 %   | backslash is TeX escape character\\

% |\catcode`\a=11 ... \catcode`\z=11 %| lowercase letters\\
% all others are type 12 (other)
%
% Here is a list of the characters that have been specially catcoded:

\def\dospecials{\do\ \do\\\do\{\do\}\do\$\do\&%
  \do\#\do\^\do\_\do\%\do\~}
%    \end{macrocode}
% (not counting ascii null, tab, linefeed, formfeed, return, delete)
% Each symbol in the list is preceded by \do, which can be defined
% if you want to do something to every item in the list.
%
% We make |@| signs act like letters, temporarily, to avoid conflict
% between user names and internal control sequences of plain format.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\catcode`@=11
%    \end{macrocode}
%
% To make the plain macros more efficient in time and space,
% several constant values are declared here as control sequences.
% If they were changed, anything could happen;
% so they are private symbols.

%
% Allocation of registers
%
% Here are macros for the automatic allocation of |\count|, |\box|,
% |\dimen|, |\skip|, |\muskip|, and |\toks| registers, as well as
% |\read| and |\write| stream numbers, |\fam| codes, |\language| codes,
% and |\insert| numbers.
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
\message{registers,}
%    \end{macrocode}
%
% When a register is used only temporarily, it need not be allocated;
% grouping can be used, making the value previously in the register
% return after the close of the group.  The main use of these macros is
% for registers that are defined by one macro and used by others,
% possibly at different nesting levels.  All such registers should be
% defined through these macros; otherwise conflicts may occur,
% especially when two or more macro packages are being used at
% the same time.
%
% \begin{oldcomments}
% The following counters are reserved:
%   0 to 9  page numbering
%       10  count allocation
%       11  dimen allocation
%       12  skip allocation
%       13  muskip allocation
%       14  box allocation
%       15  toks allocation
%       16  read file allocation
%       17  write file allocation
%       18  math family allocation
%       19  language allocation
%       20  insert allocation
%       21  the most recently allocated number
%       22  constant -1
% \end{oldcomments}
%
% New counters are allocated starting with 23, 24, etc.  Other registers
% are allocated starting with 10.  This leaves 0 through 9 for the user
% to play with safely, except that counts 0 to 9 are considered to be
% the page and subpage numbers (since they are displayed during
% output). In this scheme, |\count| 10 always contains the number of the
% highest-numbered counter that has been allocated, |\count| 14 the
% highest-numbered box, etc. Inserts are given numbers 254, 253, etc.,
% since they require a |\count|, |\dimen|, |\skip|, and |\box| all with
% the same number; |\count| 20 contains the lowest-numbered insert that
% has been allocated. Of course, |\box|255 is reserved for |\output|;
% |\count|255, |\dimen|255, and |\skip|255 can be used freely.
%
% It is recommended that macro designers always use
% |\global| assignments with respect to registers numbered\\
% 1, 3, 5, 7, 9,\\
% and always non-|\global| assignments with respect to registers\\
% 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 255.\\
% This will prevent ``save stack buildup'' that might otherwise occur.
