% \section{Using the \LaTeX3 modules}
%
% The modules documented in ^^A
% \ifinterface
%   this file (and \file{source3} for documented sources) ^^A
% \else
%   \file{interface3} (and this file) ^^A
% \fi
% are designed to be used on top of \LaTeXe{} and are already pre-loaded
% since \LaTeXe{} 2020-02-02.
% To support older formats, the |\usepackage{expl3}| or |\RequirePackage{expl3}|
% instructions are still available to load them all as one.
%
% As the modules use a coding syntax different from standard
% \LaTeXe{} it provides a few functions for setting it up.
%
% \begin{function}[updated = 2011-08-13]{\ExplSyntaxOn, \ExplSyntaxOff}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{ExplSyntaxOn} \meta{code} \cs{ExplSyntaxOff}
%   \end{syntax}
%   The \cs{ExplSyntaxOn} function switches to a category code
%   régime in which spaces and new lines are ignored, and in which the colon (|:|)
%   and underscore (|_|) are treated as \enquote{letters}, thus allowing
%   access to the names of code functions and variables. Within this
%   environment, |~| is used to input a space. The \cs{ExplSyntaxOff}
%   reverts to the document category code régime.
%   \begin{texnote}
%     Spaces introduced by~|~| behave much in the same way as normal
%     space characters in the standard category code régime: they are
%     ignored after a control word or at the start of a line, and
%     multiple consecutive~|~| are equivalent to a single one.  However,
%     |~|~is \emph{not} ignored at the end of a line.
%   \end{texnote}
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[updated = 2017-03-19, updated = 2023-08-03]
%   {\ProvidesExplPackage, \ProvidesExplClass, \ProvidesExplFile}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{ProvidesExplPackage} \Arg{package} \Arg{date} \Arg{version} \Arg{description}
%   \end{syntax}
%   These functions act broadly in the same way as the corresponding
%   \LaTeXe{} kernel
%   functions \tn{ProvidesPackage}, \tn{ProvidesClass} and
%   \tn{ProvidesFile}. However, they also implicitly switch
%   \cs{ExplSyntaxOn} for the remainder of the code with the file. At the
%   end of the file, \cs{ExplSyntaxOff} will be called to reverse this.
%   (This is the same concept as \LaTeXe{} provides in turning on
%   \tn{makeatletter} within package and class code.) The \meta{date} should
%   be given in the format \meta{year}/\meta{month}/\meta{day} or in the ISO
%   date format \meta{year}-\meta{month}-\meta{day}. If the
%   \meta{version} is given then a leading \texttt{v} is optional: if given
%   as a \enquote{pure} version string, a \texttt{v} will be prepended.
% \end{function}
%
% \begin{function}[updated = 2012-06-04]{\GetIdInfo}
%   \begin{syntax}
%     \cs{GetIdInfo} |$Id:| \meta{SVN info field} |$| \Arg{description}
%   \end{syntax}
%   Extracts all information from a SVN field. Spaces are not
%   ignored in these fields. The information pieces are stored in
%   separate control sequences with \cs{ExplFileName} for the part of the
%   file name leading up to the period, \cs{ExplFileDate} for date,
%   \cs{ExplFileVersion} for version and \cs{ExplFileDescription} for the
%   description.
% \end{function}
%
% To summarize: Every single package using this syntax should identify
% itself using one of the above methods. Special care is taken so that
% every package or class file loaded with \tn{RequirePackage} or similar
% are loaded with usual \LaTeXe{} category codes and the \LaTeX3 category code
% scheme is reloaded when needed afterwards. See implementation for
% details. If you use the \cs{GetIdInfo} command you can use the
% information when loading a package with
% \begin{verbatim}
%   \ProvidesExplPackage{\ExplFileName}
%     {\ExplFileDate}{\ExplFileVersion}{\ExplFileDescription}
% \end{verbatim}

% \subsection{The \tn{pdfstrcmp} primitive in \XeTeX{}}
%
% Only \pdfTeX{} has a primitive called \tn{pdfstrcmp}. The \XeTeX{}
% version is just \tn{strcmp}, so there is some shuffling to do. As
% this is still a real primitive, using the \pdfTeX{} name is \enquote{safe}.

\fi
%    \end{macrocode}
%
% \subsection{Loading support \Lua{} code}
%
% When \LuaTeX{} is used there are various pieces of \Lua{} code which need to
% be loaded. The code itself is defined in \pkg{l3luatex} and is extracted into
% a separate file. Thus here the task is to load the \Lua{} code both now and
% (if required) at the start of each job.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\begingroup\expandafter\expandafter\expandafter\endgroup
\expandafter\ifx\csname directlua\endcsname\relax
\else
  \ifnum\luatexversion<110 %
  \else
%    \end{macrocode}
%   For \LuaTeX{} we make sure the basic support is loaded:
%   this is only necessary in plain.
%    \begin{macrocode}
    \begingroup\expandafter\expandafter\expandafter\endgroup
    \expandafter\ifx\csname newcatcodetable\endcsname\relax
      \input{ltluatex}%

    \else
      \newluabytecode\@expl@luadata@bytecode
    \fi
    \directlua{require("expl3")}%
%    \end{macrocode}
%   As the user might be making a custom format, no assumption is made about
%   matching package mode with only loading the \Lua{} code once. Instead, a
%   query to \Lua{} reveals what mode is in operation.
%    \begin{macrocode}
    \ifnum 0%
      \directlua{
        if status.ini_version then

%
% \subsection{Engine requirements}
%
% The code currently requires \eTeX{}, the set of \enquote{\pdfTeX{}
% extensions} \emph{including} \tn{expanded}, and for Unicode engines the
% ability to generate arbitrary character tokens by expansion. That is covered
% by all supported engines since \TeX{} Live 2019, which we therefore use
% as a baseline for engine and \LaTeX{} format support.
% For \LuaTeX, we require at least Lua 5.3 and the |token.set_lua| function.
% This is available at least since \LuaTeX{} 1.10, which again is the one
% in \TeX{} Live 2019. (u)p\TeX{} only gained \tn{ifincsname} for \TeX{}
% Live 2020, but at present that primitive is unused in \pkg{expl3} so for
% the present it's not tested. If and when that changes, we will need to
% revisit the code here.
