 *                   Style sheet for the W3C specifications                   *
 *
 * Special classes handled by this style sheet include:
 *
 * Indices
 *   - .toc for the Table of Contents (<ol class="toc">)
 *     + <span class="secno"> for the section numbers
 *   - #toc for the Table of Contents (<nav id="toc">)
 *   - ul.index for Indices (<a href="#ref">term</a><span>, in §N.M</span>)
 *   - table.index for Index Tables (e.g. for properties or elements)
 *
 * Structural Markup
 *   - table.data for general data tables
 *     -> use 'scope' attribute, <colgroup>, <thead>, and <tbody> for best results !
 *     -> use <table class='complex data'> for extra-complex tables
 *     -> use <td class='long'> for paragraph-length cell content
 *     -> use <td class='pre'> when manual line breaks/indentation would help readability
 *   - dl.switch for switch statements
 *   - ol.algorithm for algorithms (helps to visualize nesting)
 *   - .figure and .caption (HTML4) and figure and figcaption (HTML5)
 *     -> .sidefigure for right-floated figures
 *   - ins/del
 *     -> ins/del.c### for candidate and proposed changes (amendments)
 *
 * Code
 *   - pre and code
 *
 * Special Sections
 *   - .note       for informative notes             (div, p, span, aside, details)
 *   - .example    for informative examples          (div, p, pre, span)
 *   - .issue      for issues                        (div, p, span)
 *   - .advisement for loud normative statements     (div, p, strong)
 *   - .annoying-warning for spec obsoletion notices (div, aside, details)
 *   - .correction for "candidate corrections"       (div, aside, details, section)
 *   - .addition   for "candidate additions"         (div, aside, details, section)
 *   - .correction.proposed for "proposed corrections" (div, aside, details, section)
 *   - .addition.proposed   for "proposed additions"   (div, aside, details, section)
 *
 * Definition Boxes
 *   - pre.def   for WebIDL definitions
 *   - table.def for tables that define other entities (e.g. CSS properties)
 *   - dl.def    for definition lists that define other entitles (e.g. HTML elements)
 *
 * Numbering
 *   - .secno for section numbers in .toc and headings (<span class='secno'>3.2</span>)
 *   - .marker for source-inserted example/figure/issue numbers (<span class='marker'>Issue 4</span>)
 *   - ::before styled for CSS-generated issue/example/figure numbers:
 *     -> Documents wishing to use this only need to add
 *        figcaption::before,
 *        .caption::before { content: "Figure "  counter(figure) " ";  }
 *        .example::before { content: "Example " counter(example) " "; }
 *        .issue::before   { content: "Issue "   counter(issue) " ";   }
 *
 * Header Stuff (ignore, just don't conflict with these classes)
 *   - .head for the header
 *   - .copyright for the copyright
 *
 * Outdated warning for old specs
 *
 * Miscellaneous
 *   - .overlarge for things that should be as wide as possible, even if
 *     that overflows the body text area. This can be used on an item or
 *     on its container, depending on the effect desired.
 *     Note that this styling basically doesn't help at all when printing,
 *     since A4 paper isn't much wider than the max-width here.
 *     It's better to design things to fit into a narrower measure if possible.
 *
 *   - js-added ToC jump links (see fixup.js)

   <p><a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-p1636">[P1636]</a> "Formatters for library types" proposed adding a number of <code class="highlight"><c- n>std</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>formatter</c-></code> specializations, including the one for <code class="highlight"><c- n>std</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>filesystem</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>path</c-></code>.
However, SG16 recommended removing it because of quoting and localization
concerns. The current paper addresses these concerns and proposes adding an
improved <code class="highlight"><c- n>std</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>formatter</c-></code> specialization for <code class="highlight"><c- n>path</c-></code>.</p>
   <h2 class="heading settled" data-level="2" id="problems"><span class="secno">2. </span><span class="content">Problems</span><a class="self-link" href="#problems"></a></h2>
   <p><a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-p1636">[P1636]</a> proposed defining a <code class="highlight"><c- n>formatter</c-></code> specialization for <code class="highlight"><c- n>path</c-></code> in terms
of the <code class="highlight"><c- n>ostream</c-></code> insertion operator which, in turn, formats the native
representation wrapped in <code class="highlight"><c- n>quoted</c-></code>. For example:</p>
<pre class="language-c++ highlight"><c- n>std</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>cout</c-> <c- o>&lt;&lt;</c-> <c- n>std</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>format</c-><c- p>(</c-><c- s>"{}, std::filesystem::path("</c-><c- o>/</c-><c- n>usr</c-><c- o>/</c-><c- n>bin</c-><c- s>"));</c->
</pre>
   would print <code class="highlight"><c- s>"/usr/bin"</c-></code> with quotes being part of the output. 
   <p>Unfortunately this has a number of problems, some of them raised in the LWG
discussion of the paper.</p>
   <p>First, <code class="highlight"><c- n>std</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>quoted</c-></code> only escapes the delimiter (<code class="highlight"><c- s>"</c-></code>) and the escape character
itself (<code class="highlight">\</code>). As a result the output may not be usable if the path contains
control characters such as newlines. For example:</p>
<pre class="language-c++ highlight"><c- n>std</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>cout</c-> <c- o>&lt;&lt;</c-> <c- n>std</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>format</c-><c- p>(</c-><c- s>"{}"</c-><c- p>,</c-> <c- n>std</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>filesystem</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>path</c-><c- p>(</c-><c- s>"multi</c-><c- se>\n</c-><c- s>line"</c-><c- p>));</c->
</pre>
   <p>would print</p>
<pre class="language-text highlight">"multi
line"
</pre>
   which is not a valid string in C++ and many other languages, most importantly
including shell languages. Such output is pretty much unusable and
interferes with formatting of ranges of paths. 
   <p>Another problem is encoding. The <code class="highlight"><c- n>native</c-></code> member function returns <code class="highlight"><c- n>basic_string</c-><c- o>&lt;</c-><c- n>value_type</c-><c- o>></c-></code> where</p>
   <blockquote>
    <p><code class="highlight"><c- n>value_type</c-></code> is a <code class="highlight"><c- k>typedef</c-></code> for the operating system dependent encoded
character type used to represent pathnames.</p>
   </blockquote>
   <p><code class="highlight"><c- n>value_type</c-></code> is normally <code class="highlight"><c- b>char</c-></code> on POSIX and <code class="highlight"><c- b>wchar_t</c-></code> on Windows.</p>
   <p>This function may perform encoding conversion per <a href="http://eel.is/c++draft/fs.path.type.cvt">[fs.path.type.cvt</a>].</p>
   <p>On POSIX, when the target code unit type is <code class="highlight"><c- b>char</c-></code> no conversion is normally
performed:</p>
   <blockquote>
    <p>For POSIX-based operating systems <code class="highlight"><c- n>path</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>value_type</c-></code> is <code class="highlight"><c- b>char</c-></code> so no
conversion from <code class="highlight"><c- b>char</c-></code> value type arguments or to <code class="highlight"><c- b>char</c-></code> value type return
values is performed.</p>
   </blockquote>
   <p>This usually gives the desired result.</p>
   <p>On Windows, when the target code unit type is <code class="highlight"><c- b>char</c-></code> the encoding conversion
would result in invalid output. For example, trying to print the following path
in Belarusian</p>
<pre class="language-c++ highlight"><c- n>std</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>print</c-><c- p>(</c-><c- s>"{}</c-><c- se>\n</c-><c- s>"</c-><c- p>,</c-> <c- n>std</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>filesystem</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>path</c-><c- p>(</c->L<c- s>"Шчучыншчына"</c-><c- p>));</c->
</pre>
   <p>would result in the following output in the Windows console even though all code
pages and localization settings are set to Belarusian and both the source and
literal encodings are UTF-8:</p>
<pre class="highlight"><c- s>"�����������"</c->
</pre>
   <p>The problem is that despite <code class="highlight"><c- n>print</c-></code> and <code class="highlight"><c- n>path</c-></code> both support Unicode the
intermediate conversion goes through CP1251 (the code page used for Belarusian)
which is not even valid for printing in the console which uses legacy CP866.
This has been discussed at length in <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-p2093">[P2093]</a> "Formatted output".</p>
   <h2 class="heading settled" data-level="3" id="proposal"><span class="secno">3. </span><span class="content">Proposal</span><a class="self-link" href="#proposal"></a></h2>
   <p>Both of the problems discussed in the previoius section have already been
solved. The escaping mechanism that can handle invalid code units has been
introduced in <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-p2286">[P2286]</a> "Formatting Ranges" and encoding issues have been
addressed in <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-p2093">[P2093]</a> and other papers. We apply those solutions to the
formatting of paths.</p>
   <p>This paper proposes adding a <code class="highlight"><c- n>formatter</c-></code> specialization for <code class="highlight"><c- n>path</c-></code> that does
escaping similarly to <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-p2286">[P2286]</a> and Unicode transcoding on Windows.</p>

   <p>This leaves only one question of how to handle invalid Unicode. Plain strings
handle them by formatting ill-formed code units as hexadecimal escapes, e.g.</p>
<pre class="language-c++ highlight"><c- c1>// invalid UTF-8, s has value: ["\x{c3}("]</c->
<c- n>std</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>string</c-> <c- n>s</c-> <c- o>=</c-> <c- n>std</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>format</c-><c- p>(</c-><c- s>"[{:?}]"</c-><c- p>,</c-> <c- s>"</c-><c- se>\xc3\x28</c-><c- s>"</c-><c- p>);</c->
</pre>
   <p>This is useful because it doesn’t loose any information. But in case of paths
it is a bit more complicated because the string is in a different form and
the mapping between ill-formed code units in one form to another may not be
well-defined.</p>
   <p>The current paper proposes applying hexadecimal escapes to the original
ill-formed data because it gives more intuitive result and doesn’t require
non-standard mappings such as WTF-8 (<a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-wtf">[WTF]</a>).</p>
   <p>For example:</p>
<pre class="language-c++ highlight"><c- k>auto</c-> <c- n>p</c-> <c- o>=</c-> <c- n>std</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>filesystem</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>path</c-><c- p>(</c->L<c- s>"</c-><c- se>\xd800</c-><c- s>"</c-><c- p>);</c-> <c- c1>// a lone surrogate</c->
<c- n>std</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>print</c-><c- p>(</c-><c- s>"{}</c-><c- se>\n</c-><c- s>"</c-><c- p>,</c-> <c- n>p</c-><c- p>);</c->
</pre>
   prints 
<pre class="language-text highlight">"\u{d800}"
