I'm sort of wishing to convert TeX tokens into characters. We can assume the standard (i.e. plain) category codes. And that the characters are to be written to a file.
This proceess to take place outside of TeX. Say in a Python program. Think of a pretty-printer. * Read the TeX in as tokens. * Write the TeX out as characters. My present interest is in the writer part. And I'd very much prefer to have human-editable output. So the writer should have methods for * Writing a string (not containing control sequences). * Writing a control sequence (or control symbol). And, like humans, it should also have a line length limit. Does anyone know of such a writer? Or something close? Or any projects that could use such a writer? -- Jonathan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
