/**** syntax.h --- Character classification.
 *
 ** Author: Steve Folkes <smf@hermes.mod.uk>
 *
 **** Commentary:
 *
 ***=== INTRODUCTION =========================================================
 *
 * This file specifies the interface to a number of syntax table manipulation
 * functions.  I ought to be able to use <ctype.h> for this, but I can't
 * because it doesn't have routines to get the numeric value for alphabetic
 * characters (amongst other omissions).  As I need to do this here, I might
 * as well put in support for everything.
 *
 * It is assumed elsewhere (in association with the input stream facility
 * specified in the file "istream.h") that the null and newline characters are
 * white space, and have no digit value.
 *
 ***=== CONSTANTS ============================================================
 *
 ** Constant:   SYNTAX_NO_VALUE
 *
 * This value is returned by the ``syntax_value'' function for characters that
 * do not have a digit value.
 *
 ***=== FUNCTIONS ============================================================
 *
 ** Function:   int                     syntax_value
 *                      PROTO_S ((char c))
 ** Exceptions:
 *
 * This function returns the positive integer digit value that the specified
 * character should have, or ``SYNTAX_NO_VALUE'' if it has no value.
 *
 ** Function:   char                    syntax_upcase
 *                      PROTO_S ((char c))
 ** Exceptions:
 *
 * This function returns the upper case version of the specified character if
 * it has one, otherwise it just returns the character.
 *
 ** Function:   char                    syntax_downcase
 *                      PROTO_S ((char c))
 ** Exceptions:
 *
 * This function returns the lower case version of the specified character if
 * it has one, otherwise it just returns the character.
 *
 ** Function:   BoolT                   syntax_is_white_space
 *                      PROTO_S ((char c))
 *
 * This function returns true if the specified character is a white space
 * character, and false otherwise.
 *
 ** Function:   BoolT                   syntax_is_printable
 *                      PROTO_S ((char c))
 ** Exceptions:
 *
 * This function returns true if the specified character can be printed, and
 * false otherwise.
 *
 ** Function:   BoolT                   syntax_is_letter
 *                      PROTO_S ((char c))
 ** Exceptions:
 *
 * This function returns true if the specified character is a letter, and
 * false otherwise.
 *
 ** Function:   BoolT                   syntax_is_digit
 *                      PROTO_S ((char c))
 ** Exceptions:
 *
 * This function returns true if the specified character is a decimal digit,
 * and false otherwise.
 *
 **** Change Log:
 * $Log: syntax.h,v $
 * Revision 1.1.1.1  1998/01/17  15:57:46  release
 * First version to be checked into rolling release.
 *
 * Revision 1.2  1994/12/12  11:45:54  smf
 * Performing changes for 'CR94_178.sid+tld-update' - bringing in line with
 * OSSG C Coding Standards.
 *
 * Revision 1.1.1.1  1994/07/25  16:06:13  smf
 * Initial import of os-interface shared files.
