18: * Cords are immutable character strings. A number of operations
19: * on long cords are much more efficient than their strings.h counterpart.
20: * In particular, concatenation takes constant time independent of the length
21: * of the arguments. (Cords are represented as trees, with internal
22: * nodes representing concatenation and leaves consisting of either C
23: * strings or a functional description of the string.)
24: *
25: * The following are reasonable applications of cords. They would perform
26: * unacceptably if C strings were used:
27: * - A compiler that produces assembly language output by repeatedly
28: * concatenating instructions onto a cord representing the output file.
29: * - A text editor that converts the input file to a cord, and then
30: * performs editing operations by producing a new cord representing
31: * the file after echa character change (and keeping the old ones in an
32: * edit history)
33: *
34: * For optimal performance, cords should be built by
35: * concatenating short sections.
36: * This interface is designed for maximum compatibility with C strings.
37: * ASCII NUL characters may be embedded in cords using CORD_from_fn.
38: * This is handled correctly, but CORD_to_char_star will produce a string
39: * with embedded NULs when given such a cord.
40: *
41: * This interface is fairly big, largely for performance reasons.
42: * The most basic constants and functions:
43: *
44: * CORD - the type of a cord;
45: * CORD_EMPTY - empty cord;
46: * CORD_len(cord) - length of a cord;
47: * CORD_cat(cord1,cord2) - concatenation of two cords;
48: * CORD_substr(cord, start, len) - substring (or subcord);
49: * CORD_pos i; CORD_FOR(i, cord) { ... CORD_pos_fetch(i) ... } -
50: * examine each character in a cord. CORD_pos_fetch(i) is the char.
51: * CORD_fetch(int i) - Retrieve i'th character (slowly).
52: * CORD_cmp(cord1, cord2) - compare two cords.
53: * CORD_from_file(FILE * f) - turn a read-only file into a cord.
54: * CORD_to_char_star(cord) - convert to C string.
55: * (Non-NULL C constant strings are cords.)
56: * CORD_printf (etc.) - cord version of printf. Use %r for cords.
