Warnings : These macros are not bulletproof. I believe no such macros could be bulletproof. But in practice that should be of no importance; hopefully, any significant annoyances will be routinely reported and remedied. Use of this alpha version with an imbricated format like LaTeX is probably for hardened texperts only. Plain and AmSTeX seem to respond well. INSTRUCTIONS. Suppose you have a macro file x.sty used for typesetting the typescript x.tex. The aim is to find out, quickly and easily, which of the macro definitions in x.sty are necessary to typeset x.tex. 1) Modify a *copy* of x.sty to x-occ.sty by altering definitions as follows: (a) replace \def by \Def for definitions of macros you suspect might be unused in x.tex. Similarly use \gDef in place of \gdef or \global\def. (b) similarly replace \mathchardef by \Mathchardef, and so forth as indicated in the list of currently possible substitutions indicated in occam.spc. Provisional Warnings: --- Do not modify \def's or \let's within other definitions. This would be pointless and perhaps dangerous. Be ready to revert to \def or \let if trouble ensues. --- Avoid "\outer" and "\long" macros; also \alloc@ (c) Place the lines %%% auditor.tex audits use of macros in a typescript. \input auditor.tex %% Keep this file available to TeX! at the head of x-occ.sty. (Watch the order!) 2) Modify x.tex temporarily replacing \input x.sty by \input x-occ.sty in the header. Typeset as usual. The audit should now proceed with an explanatory dialog. 3) If there is trouble in step 2), repeat it choosing (by dialog) to compose *without* an audit. There should be no change from the original behavior of x.tex. Correct any misbehavior --- probably arising from a malformation in x-occ.sty. Sometimes, here and there in x-occ.sty, one has to change \Def back to \def etc. 4) Delete the unused definitions in another copy of x.sty, say x-min.sty. The list in the "audit.lst" output file is designed to make this easy, in fact so easy that a utility called "defstrip" can do the job automatically. Then replace x-occ.sty by x-min.sty in the header of x.tex. Typeset x.tex and check a proof copy. 5) You can now send x.tex and x-min.sty to a colleague or publisher, without burdening him/her with useless macros present in x.sty. IMPROVEMENTS CURRENT AND FUTURE A) In all, the list of prepared macros is currently (July 1994): \Def, \Let, \gDef, \gLet, \Font, \Mathchardef, \Newsymbol Unless the contrary is indicated, each is to be used in analogy with \Def replacing in x.sty a corresponding uncapitalized TeX primitive. [Exception: \newsymbol (from amssym.def) is *not* primitive; it is used copiously for declaration of symbols from the AmS math fonts msam and msbm, as in amssym.tex.] When the file amssym.tex is \input, huge numbers of math characters are defined via \newsymbol but only few are used. In this case it is appropriate to use variants \MATHchardef, \NEWsymbol. which signal math characters only if they are used --- and *not* if they are unused. For this, try temporarily replacing \input amssym.tex in x-occ.sty (after \input auditor.tex please) by \input amssym.occ where amssym.occ is obtained from amssym.tex by replacing \newsymbol by \NEWsymbol; then you get a list of the symbols really needed in x.tex. In using \Let and \gLet, avoid macros with parameters and note that the condition that the second argument be a macro is often not satisfied. Do not use = in the syntax. \Let, \gLet, and \Font tend to be troublesome; while \Mathchardef, \MATHchardef, \Newsymbol, \NEWsymbolseem tend to be troublefree. The usefullness of the above list can be stretched by the user. For example, before \Font was introduced \font\myfont=cmr10 scaled 11.5pt would have been replaced by \font\myfont@=cmr10 at 11.5pt \Def\myfont{\myfont@} to report use of \myfont. In many formats, user definitions are made via macros not available in Plain TeX; for example, \define and \redefine in AmSTeX. In practice, they can usually be replaced by \Def for the audit. But the programmer may want to invent new macros, say \Define and \Redefine for AmSTeX. (B) In case x.sty is of permanent interest, it is a good idea to begin to use x-occ.sty instead of x.sty after commenting out the line \input auditor.tex and replacing it by something like %% Audit.tex apparatus \let\Def\def \let\gDef\gdef \let\Let\let \let\Font\font \def\gLet{\global\let} \let\Mathchardef\mathchardef %% extend as necessary % \input auditor.tex %% comment out to suppress audit function This will make steps (1) to (4) superfluous for your next typescript y.tex. (C) DefStrip automates the generation of x-min.sty. (auditor.tex plus DefStrip make up the "Occam" utility.) Its starting materials are "x-occ.sty" plus the "list audit.lst" of unused macros provided by auditor.tex. This depends on a special arrangement of x-occ.sty described in occam.spc. Ultimately, an auxiliary ".tex" program "defstrip.tex" will rewrite x-occ.sty omitting the inused definitions. This auxiliary program resembles the "docstrip" utility of LaTeX fame. At the present time defstrip.tex is unavailable. But there exists a QUEDM script called Auditor-QUEDM-Macros; QUEDM is a editor with convenient "macro" (=composite command) capabilities that is available on Macintosh computers at prices as low as $60 The instructions for Auditor-QUEDM-Macros are found in defstrip.hlp. *** How "auditor.tex" functions or fails to function. "auditor.tex" prefixes a reporting device to the expansion of macros defined by \Def; this device reports the use of the macro by defining a tell-tale auxilliary macro that is then polled after typesetting. But it may cause strange behavior or even stop TeX. As has been mentioned auditor.tex is not bullet-proof. Any change whatever in the expansion of a macro can in principle alter its behavior. For example TeX can use \ifx and many other means to examine the expansion of a macro; it can detect any tampering with definitions. *** The "watchman" mechanism. This mechanism is capable of deleting any collection of lines of a macro file in response to the non-use of a single macro called the "watchman". This "watchman" may be a macro that is specially defined for the purpose. The mechanism is definitely only for macro files carefully formatted for Occam. This mechanism is more powerful but more cumbersome than that for \Def etc. It is still to be implemented. CAVEAT LaTeX : LaTeX environments tend to define their user macros locally; indeed their definitions are not set up while the macro file x.sty is being read but when the environment is entered. Thus the modus operandi indicated above is suspect. However, normally, the meanings assigned upon entering the environment are stored in macros whose name involves @ ; these are possibly the macros to spy on with \Def etc. Alternatively, the "watchman" mechanism may prove effective. The cleanup based on audit.lst is then still a delicate matter requiring texpert attention. Further, LaTeX's fragility must be attended to...
