: Process bracketed array indicesThis experimental option makes square brackets behave like parentheses in the context of array indices.
In FORTRAN, FTANGLE will just replace the brackets by parentheses. In C, the brackets will be left alone.
FWEAVE, however, will typeset the indices according
to the fwebmac.sty
macro \WARRAY
. This macro takes one
argument, which is just the array index or indices. (In C, indexing
like a[i][j][k]
generates the argument i,j,k
.) By
default, \WARRAY
just surrounds its argument with brackets.
However, the user may change its definition to get special effects such
as superscripted or subscripted indices. A simple example macro
\WSUB
is provided in fwebmac.sty
; one can say
\let\WARRAY\WSUB
in the limbo section to have bracketed indices
print as subscripts.
This feature may not work when the contents of the brackets are too complicated (so that FWEAVE tries to typeset them by going in and out of math mode).
