************************************************************************* Contents and Notes ------------------ \makeescape, ..., \makecomment allow users to change category codes a little more easily. \savecat#1 and \restorecat#1 will save and restore the category of a given character. These are useful in cases where one doesn't wish to localize the settings and therefore be required to globally define or set things. \SaveCS#1 and \RestoreCS#1 save and restore `meanings' of control sequences. Again this is useful in cases where one doesn't want to localize or where global definitions clobber a control sequence which is needed later with its `old' definition. Abbreviations. Just a listing with indications of expansion where that may not be obvious.
