Recursion guard and static klammer checking A klammer that reaches itself, directly or through a cycle, expanded until the C++ stack was exhausted: the process died from SIGSEGV with no message and no location. The former limit guarded only the top-level fixed-point iteration, never the descent through klammer application. A depth guard now raises a recursion error naming the klammer and where it was applied. The same loop's termination test moves from "the katom list stopped growing" to "a pass applied no klammer", since a klammer whose body expands to nothing is a reduction that adds no katoms; exceeding the round limit is now an error rather than a message followed by rendering a document with live klammers still in it. ktext --check locates every klammer application written in a document or in a klammer body and checks name existence, argument count, option names, and target coverage without applying anything, reporting all problems at once. This is possible because Klammertext has no catcodes: katom structure is fixed when a file is read, so a klammer body has a determinate shape before it is expanded. The check therefore reaches what the engine cannot -- the branch of a @cond that is not selected, and bodies a given render never enters. @cond's set of truth values is an open language question, so its meaning is unchanged here; an unrecognized predicate now warns, giving its value and location. tst/ gains recursion_test.sh (7 cases) and check_test.sh (19 cases), and this snapshot's test Makefile is generated from the shipped suite list so the two cannot drift apart.

#!/bin/bash
#
# recursion_test.sh — The klammer application recursion guard.
#
# Before the guard, a klammer that applied itself -- directly or through a
# cycle -- descended until the C++ stack was exhausted. The process died with
# SIGSEGV: no message, no location, no indication of which klammer was at
# fault, and a core dump. For a language whose premise is that users define
# their own klammers, that was the worst available failure mode.
#
# Machine::apply_klammer() now carries a depth guard (Depth_guard in
# mac/machine.cpp) that raises a Recursion_error naming the klammer and its
# location. Separately, the top-level fixed-point loop in Machine::apply()
# ends when a pass applies no klammer -- rather than when the katom list stops
# growing -- and exceeding its round limit is an error rather than a message
# followed by rendering a document with live klammers still in it.
#
An output policy for the three commands, and @cond as a true special form A snapshot of the development tree. The substantial changes since the last one: COMMAND OUTPUT POLICY. The three commands display text in exactly three cases, and each owns a stream: LOGGING under "-v" greater than 0 and an ERROR before termination go to STDERR; OUTPUT THE USER ASKED FOR goes to STDOUT. For ktext that output is a document, so "ktext doc.kt -d | ..." is now safe -- logging used to share the stream and land inside the document. A bare command prints its usage and succeeds rather than failing. Colour is emitted only to a terminal, per stream, and NO_COLOR is honoured. "-v 1" reports every decision whose outcome you could not have read off your own input: the klammerset that was loaded and from which file, a font's directory, a ":files" name's file, how "-o" was expanded. Higher levels are the trace. The commands no longer warn and continue: an anomaly is an error, described with its location. Two exceptions remain, each for a stated reason -- a condition that is expected and temporary by design, and a judgment that is a heuristic rather than exact. @cond IS NOW A TRUE SPECIAL FORM, resolved at APPLICATION time rather than when the file is read. Two consequences for a writer: * a state variable reaches the predicate. "@@@state Flag :value true @@@ @cond *Flag* | T | F @" renders "T"; it used to see the literal "*Flag*" and silently take the false branch. The document now behaves like a klammer body, whose arguments are bound before its conditionals are decided. * nothing in a discarded branch happens -- it is not read, not evaluated, not expanded. An @eval in the branch not taken used to run anyway. Its predicate relation is total and strict: true, True, 1; false, False, 0, and empty; anything else is an error at the @cond rather than silently false. @eval REACHING OUTSIDE. ":shell" and ":haskell" now keep the command's standard error out of the document (it appears under "-v 1") and treat a nonzero exit as an error naming what the command reported. A command that exits nonzero on purpose -- "grep" finding no match -- says so with "|| true". KLAMMER SETS. Several combine: "--klammersets a b c" loads all three in the order given, sharing one namespace, with the definition modes deciding collisions. "none" means none and may not be combined with other symbols. A klammerset with symbol X is declared in a file X/X.k, which is what lets two sets require the same third set without loading it twice.

Recursion guard and static klammer checking A klammer that reaches itself, directly or through a cycle, expanded until the C++ stack was exhausted: the process died from SIGSEGV with no message and no location. The former limit guarded only the top-level fixed-point iteration, never the descent through klammer application. A depth guard now raises a recursion error naming the klammer and where it was applied. The same loop's termination test moves from "the katom list stopped growing" to "a pass applied no klammer", since a klammer whose body expands to nothing is a reduction that adds no katoms; exceeding the round limit is now an error rather than a message followed by rendering a document with live klammers still in it. ktext --check locates every klammer application written in a document or in a klammer body and checks name existence, argument count, option names, and target coverage without applying anything, reporting all problems at once. This is possible because Klammertext has no catcodes: katom structure is fixed when a file is read, so a klammer body has a determinate shape before it is expanded. The check therefore reaches what the engine cannot -- the branch of a @cond that is not selected, and bodies a given render never enters. @cond's set of truth values is an open language question, so its meaning is unchanged here; an unrecognized predicate now warns, giving its value and location. tst/ gains recursion_test.sh (7 cases) and check_test.sh (19 cases), and this snapshot's test Makefile is generated from the shipped suite list so the two cannot drift apart.

An output policy for the three commands, and @cond as a true special form A snapshot of the development tree. The substantial changes since the last one: COMMAND OUTPUT POLICY. The three commands display text in exactly three cases, and each owns a stream: LOGGING under "-v" greater than 0 and an ERROR before termination go to STDERR; OUTPUT THE USER ASKED FOR goes to STDOUT. For ktext that output is a document, so "ktext doc.kt -d | ..." is now safe -- logging used to share the stream and land inside the document. A bare command prints its usage and succeeds rather than failing. Colour is emitted only to a terminal, per stream, and NO_COLOR is honoured. "-v 1" reports every decision whose outcome you could not have read off your own input: the klammerset that was loaded and from which file, a font's directory, a ":files" name's file, how "-o" was expanded. Higher levels are the trace. The commands no longer warn and continue: an anomaly is an error, described with its location. Two exceptions remain, each for a stated reason -- a condition that is expected and temporary by design, and a judgment that is a heuristic rather than exact. @cond IS NOW A TRUE SPECIAL FORM, resolved at APPLICATION time rather than when the file is read. Two consequences for a writer: * a state variable reaches the predicate. "@@@state Flag :value true @@@ @cond *Flag* | T | F @" renders "T"; it used to see the literal "*Flag*" and silently take the false branch. The document now behaves like a klammer body, whose arguments are bound before its conditionals are decided. * nothing in a discarded branch happens -- it is not read, not evaluated, not expanded. An @eval in the branch not taken used to run anyway. Its predicate relation is total and strict: true, True, 1; false, False, 0, and empty; anything else is an error at the @cond rather than silently false. @eval REACHING OUTSIDE. ":shell" and ":haskell" now keep the command's standard error out of the document (it appears under "-v 1") and treat a nonzero exit as an error naming what the command reported. A command that exits nonzero on purpose -- "grep" finding no match -- says so with "|| true". KLAMMER SETS. Several combine: "--klammersets a b c" loads all three in the order given, sharing one namespace, with the definition modes deciding collisions. "none" means none and may not be combined with other symbols. A klammerset with symbol X is declared in a file X/X.k, which is what lets two sets require the same third set without loading it twice. TESTS. Four new suites: the kdiag command's interface, the @eval primitive's contract with the outside world, and verbosity at both tiers. Three suites that could not run on macOS at all now do. Assembled from dev commit 6c8ee6c22fca.
