Exported Functions

"$box = Box($string,$font,$locator,$tokens);": Creates a Box representing the $string in the given $font. The $locator records the document source position. The $tokens is a Tokens list containing the TeX that created (or could have) the Box. If $font or $locator are undef, they are obtained from the currently active LaTeXML::Core::State. Note that $string can be undef which contributes nothing to the generated document, but does record the TeX code (in $tokens).

"$font = $digested->getFont;": Returns the font used by $digested.
"$boole = $digested->isMath;": Returns whether $digested was created in math mode.
"@boxes = $digested->unlist;": Returns a list of the boxes contained in $digested. It is also defined for the Boxes and Whatsit (which just return themselves) so they can stand-in for a List.
"$string = $digested->toString;": Returns a string representing this $digested.
"$string = $digested->revert;": Reverts the box to the list of "Token"s that created (or could have created) it.
"$string = $digested->getLocator;": Get an object describing the location in the original source that gave rise to $digested.
"$digested->beAbsorbed($document);": $digested should get itself absorbed into the $document in whatever way is apppropriate.
"$string = $box->getString;": Returns the string part of the $box.
