%D This module extends the functionality of the support module
%D \type {supp-mps}, the module that is responsible for
%D \METAPOST\ inclusion in \CONTEXT. Some basic macros will be
%D extended. Since some support is depends on \METAPOST\
%D macros. so let's first preload a few auxiliary \METAPOST\
%D files. 

\maxnofMPgraphics = 4000 % metafun disables the 4K boundary 

\appendtoks 
  if unknown context_tool : input mp-tool ; fi ;  
  if unknown context_spec : input mp-spec ; fi ;  
  if unknown context_grph : input mp-grph ; fi ;  
\to \MPinitializations 

%D Since we want lables to follow the document settings, we 
%D also set the font related variables.

\appendtoks
  defaultfont  := "\truefontname{Regular}" ;
  defaultscale := \the\bodyfontsize/10pt ; % not good yet
\to \MPinitializations

%D In order to support fancy text features (like outline 
%D fonts), we set: 

\appendtoks
  graphictextformat := "context" ; 
  graphictextdirective "\the\everyMPTEXgraphic" ; 
\to \MPinitializations

%D A signal that we're in combines \CONTEXT||\METAFUN mode: 

\appendtoks
  string contextversion ; contextversion := "\contextversion" ; 
\to \MPinitializations

%D Some safeguards: 

\appendtoks \cleanupfeatures \to \everyMPgraphic

%D Another one: 

\prependtoks \MPstaticgraphictrue \to \everyoverlay
\prependtoks \MPstaticgraphictrue \to \everypagebody

%D We save the number of graphics for the sake of \TEXEXEC.

\newcounter\totalnofMPgraphics 

\def\thenofMPgraphics{\the\nofMPgraphics} % from supp-mps 

\appendtoks 
  \savecurrentvalue\totalnofMPgraphics\thenofMPgraphics
\to \everybye

%D \macros
%D   {setupMPvariables}
%D
%D When we build collections of \METAPOST\ graphics, like
%D background and buttons, the need for passing settings
%D arises. By (mis|)|using the local prefix that belongs to
%D \type {\framed}, we get a rather natural interface to
%D backgrounds. To prevent conflicts, we will use the \type
%D {-} in \METAPOST\ specific variables, like:
%D
%D \starttypen
%D \setupMPvariables[meta:button][size=20pt]
%D \stoptypen

\def\@@meta{meta:}

\def\setupMPvariables
  {\dodoubleempty\dosetupMPvariables}

%D \macros 
%D   {startuniqueMPgraphic, uniqueMPgraphic}
%D
%D This macros is probably of most use to myself, since I like
%D to use graphics that adapt themselves. The next \METAPOST\
%D kind of graphic is both unique and reused when possible. 
%D 
%D \starttypen 
%D \defineoverlay[example][\uniqueMPgraphic{test}]
%D
%D \startuniqueMPgraphic {test}
%D   draw unitsquare xscaled \overlaywidth yscaled \overlayheight ; 
%D \stopuniqueMPgraphic 
%D \stoptypen

%D For educational purposes, we show the original version 
%D first. This one used a rather simple method for determining 
%D the uniqueness. 
%D
%D \starttypen 
%D \long\def\startuniqueMPgraphic#1#2\stopuniqueMPgraphic%
%D   {\setvalue{\@@MPG#1}%

%D 
%D \def\uniqueMPgraphic#1%

%D \stoptypen 
 
%\def\overlaystamp% watch the \MPcolor, since colors can be redefined

\def\overlaystamp% watch the \MPcolor, since colors can be redefined
  {\overlaywidth:\overlayheight:\overlaydepth
   :\MPcolor\overlaycolor:\MPcolor\overlaylinecolor} 

%D A better approach is to let additional variables play a role
%D in determining the uniqueness. In the next macro, the
%D second, optional, argument is used to guarantee the
%D uniqueness, as well as prepare variables for passing them to
%D \METAPOST. 
%D 
%D \starttypen
%D \startuniqueMPgraphic{meta:hash}{gap,angle,...}
%D \stoptypen
%D
%D The calling macro also accepts a second argument. For
%D convenient use in overlay definitions, we use \type {{}}
%D instead of \type {[]}.

%D \macros
%D   {MPdatafile}
%D
%D We redefine a macro from \type {supp-mps.tex}: 

\def\MPdatafile%
  {\bufferprefix mpd-\the\currentMPgraphic.mpd}

%D \macros 
%D   {MPrunfile} 
%D
%D This one is more abstract and does not assume knowledge 
%D of buffer prefixes. 

\def\MPrunfile#1% 
  {\bufferprefix mprun.#1}

%D We also have to make sure that \METAPOST\ knows this: 

\appendtoks 
  if not known _data_prefix_ :
    string _data_prefix_ , _data_suffix_ ; 
  fi ;
  _data_prefix_ := "\bufferprefix mpd-" ; 
  _data_suffix_ := ".mpd" ; 
\to \MPinitializations 

%D \macros
%D   {getMPdata}
%D
%D The current data is loaded with: 

\def\getMPdata
  {\startreadingfile
   \readlocfile\MPdatafile\donothing\donothing
   \stopreadingfile}

%D When we collect graphics in one file, we run into 
%D troubles, since \METAPOST\ has a built in limit (of 4) 
%D on the number of files it can handle. It's therefore 
%D better to collect all data in one file and filter it. 

\def\getMPdata
  {\long\def\MPdata##1##2%
     {\ifnum##1=\currentMPgraphic\relax##2\fi}%
   \startreadingfile
   \readlocfile{\MPgraphicfile.mpd}\donothing\donothing
   \stopreadingfile}

%D We have to enable this mechanism with: 

\appendtoks 
  boolean collapse_data ; collapse_data := true ;
  _data_suffix_ := ".mpd" ; % overloads previous one 
\to \MPinitializations 

%D For the moment, the next one is a private macro:

%D So, using a low level approach (thereby avoiding the slower
%D figure analysis macros) pays off. This kind of
%D optimizations are a bit tricky since we must make sure that
%D special resources end up in the (PDF) files. Because the
%D \METAPOST\ to \PDF\ can handle objects itself, it is not
%D that complicated. 

%D We hook a couple of initializations into the graphic 
%D macros. 

\appendtoks 
  \let\figuretypes\c!mps
  \runutilityfilefalse 
  \consultutilityfilefalse
\to \everyinsertMPfile

%D And some more. These are not really needed since we 
%D don't use the normal figure inclusion macros any longer. 

\appendtoks 
  \externalfigurepostprocessors\emptytoks % safeguard 
\to \everyinsertMPfile

%D We also take care of disabling fancy figure features, that
%D can terribly interfere when dealing with symbols, 
%D background graphics and running (postponed) graphics. 
%D You won't believe me if I tell you what funny side effects 
%D can occur. One took me over a day to uncover when 
%D processing the screen version of the \METAFUN\ manual. 

%D For my eyes only: 

\def\doifelseMPgraphic#1{\doifdefinedelse{\@@MPG#1}}

%D New: 

% \appendtoks \closeMPgraphicfiles \to \everystoptext 

\protect \endinput
