;;; @section Introduction

;;; This @code{postnet.scm} Scheme library can be used to generate the United
;;; States Postal Service POSTNET barcode binary pattern, as described in
;;; Chapter 4 of @uref{http://pe.usps.gov/text/Pub25/Pub25.htm, USPS
;;; Publication 25@comma{} ``Designing Letter and Reply Mail@comma{}''} dated
;;; 2003-06.  This library supports ZIP, ZIP+4, and DBPC codes.
;;;
;;; The generated binary representation is a Scheme list of boolean values.
;;; Separate code must be written to render this representation to a particular
;;; printing devices.

;;; @section Encoding

;;; There are several procedures for encoding POSTNET from various input
;;; representations.  It is suspected that most applications will encode from a
;;; string representation, using @code{string->postnet}.

;;; @defproc digit-list->postnet digits
;;;
;;; Yields a POSTNET encoding of a list of digit numbers.  For example:
;;;
;;; @lisp
;;; (digit-list->postnet '(1 2 3 4 5))
;;; @result{}
;;; (#t #f #f #f #t #t #f #f #t #f #t #f #f #t #t #f
;;;  #f #t #f #f #t #f #t #f #t #f #f #t #f #t #f #t)
;;; @end lisp

;;; @defproc string->postnet str
;;;
;;; Yields a POSTNET encoding of a string.  For example:

;;; @section Debugging

;;; Although this package does not render POSTNET for OCR use, for debugging
;;; purposes, the @code{postnet->debug-string} procedure can be used to
;;; approximate the barcode visually, using ASCII characters.

;;; @defproc postnet->debug-string postnet
;;;
;;; Yields a string visual approximation of a POSTNET encoding.  For example:
;;;
;;; @lisp
;;; (postnet->debug-string (string->postnet "12345"))
;;; @result{} "|...||..|.|..||..|..|.|.|..|.|.|"
;;; @end lisp

(define (postnet->debug-string postnet)
  (apply string (map (lambda (bar) (if bar #\| #\.)) postnet)))

;;; @section Tests

;;; The @code{postnet.scm} test suite can be enabled by editing the source code
;;; file and loading @uref{http://www.neilvandyke.org/testeez/, Testeez}.
