`xpeek`: Define commands that peek ahead in the input stream
============================================================

The `xpeek` package provides tools to help define commands that,
like [`\xspace`][1], peek at what follows them in the command stream
and choose appropriate behavior.

The code is adapted from an answer posted to [TeX.SX][2] by
Enrico “egreg” Gregorio at <http://tex.stackexchange.com/a/59542/2966>,
with modifications according to suggestions & contributions by
Enrico, Joseph Wright, Bruno Le Floch, & Clemens Niederberger;
see <http://tex.stackexchange.com/q/63568/2966>
and <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.tex.latex.latex3/2894>.

Installation
------------

This package is distributed as a standalone `.dtx` file,
packaged for the LaTeX3 project’s `l3docstrip`.
To produce the style file, run this command:

    pdflatex xpeek.dtx

This will also produce a version of the PDF documentation,
but with undefined references and without an index or change-log.
To get a more useful version of the documentation,
run these commands next:

    pdflatex xpeek.dtx
    makeindex -s l3doc.ist -o xpeek.ind xpeek.idx
    makeindex -s gglo.ist -o xpeek.gls xpeek.glo
    pdflatex xpeek.dtx
    pdflatex xpeek.dtx

These next commands are not strictly necessary,
since Acrobat Reader can generate & display thumbnails on-the-fly.
But since `l3doc` includes `hypdoc` which includes `thumbpdf`,
I may as well generate the pre-rendered thumbnails:

    thumbpdf xpeek.pdf
    pdflatex xpeek.dtx

Notice that the command for generating the index is different
from the one usually used for `ltxdoc`-documented packages;
that’s because I’m using the new (and experimental) package `l3doc`.
