commands come in layers:
- general low level : you can find a list of them in mult-low.lua (i
sometimes add to them)
- specific low level : like the one you mention, these are normally
quite stable (read: you can use them as they will stay around), there
are quite some \doif* ones (no list, one needs to look into the source
code re;ated to it) ... i have no time to make a list but if someone ...
- frequently used high level commands with low level fast callers :
\framed sits in this category
- high level commands : lots of \setup, \define, \start and so ... we
share the systematics as much as possible (also options)
- then there are defined commands (and users can add to them) : specific
instances of section heads, verbatim, fonts etc
(some of the more obscure commands are described in articles and
dedicated manuals)
