[NTG-context] List of builtin TeX commands
Hi! Is there a list of builtin TeX commands anywhere on the net? I need it for a syntax definition of the plain TeX format. With builtin TeX commands I mean stuff like \def, \global, and such. A list of commands defined in plain.tex would be great as well, but at least that's easier to compile by myself, as I can just look in the actual file. The tex source is a bit harder to overview... Thanks! nikolai ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

All these books have useful indexes. _TeX for the Impatient_ has a separate list of commands with page references. _TeX by Topic_ has a glossary of just the primitives. TeX primitives (as opposed to plain tex additions) are distinguished in the first two books by asterisks. The remaining need is the list of pdftex additions, and these are listed on page 15ff of _the PDFTeX User Manual_. However having one or more of these books available may obviate the need to compile your own syntax definition list. -- John Culleton Books with answers to marketing and publishing questions: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/shortlist.pdf Book coaches, consultants and packagers: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/packagers.pdf ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
