previous up next Absolute sign positionning
JSesh borrows the syntax from macscribe; the interpretation is made up from scratch, though.
A group made with the operator && will use absolute positioning.
each sign in such a group should be followed by a position of the form "{{x,y,s}}"
where x is the distance of the sign to the left of the group
y is the distance to the top of the group
s is the scale of the group (as a percentage)
If nothing is specified, the default values are 0,0,100.

x and y are expressed in 1/1000 of the height of an (A1) sign
stp{{0,0,100}}&&n{{0,800,100}}&&ra{{700,0,70}}

more fun with positioning :
A1{{200,20,100}}&&T31\R50{{120,0,40}}


Ligatures
JSesh knows about a number of special groups. The operator "&" means that signs are to be grouped together in a special way.

User Modifiers
To allow extensions of the manuel, JSesh can parse all modifiers after a sign, if they respect this rule :
* a modifier is introduced by "\"
* it contains a sequence of letters, which is his name, and a sequence of digits, which is his value.
