[Texmacs-dev] Understanding shrink-inline

[skhilji]

>From std-math.ts, here is the shrink-inline macro:

<assign|shrink-inline|<macro|x|<style-with|src-compact|none|<if|<equal|<value|math-display>|false>|<with|math-level|<plus|<value|math-level>|1>|<arg|x>>|<with|math-display|false|<arg|x>>>>>>


Question:  The "ELSE" part of this macro is executed only if math-display is 
false.  Why do we then setup "math-display" to false again in the else section?

Its kind of like doing:

if ( c == 0 ) {
  do_something;
}
else {
  c = 0;
  do_something_else;
}


Can we change it to:

<assign|shrink-inline|<macro|x|<style-with|src-compact|none|<if|<equal|<value|math-display>|false>|<with|math-level|<plus|<value|math-level>|1>|<arg|x>>|<arg|x>>>>>
