- the name of the parameter
- the parameter flags to set for it (from the PM_* flags defined
in zsh.h)
- optionally a pointer to a variable holding the value of the
parameter
- optionally a pointer to the value of the parameter
- a GSU pointer to the three functions that will be used to get
the value of the parameter, store a value in the parameter,
and unset the parameter
- the other macros provide simple ways to define the most common
types of parameters; they get the name of the parameter and a
pointer to a variable holding the value as arguments; they are
used to define integer-, scalar-, and array-parameters, so the
variables whose addresses are given should be of type `long',
`char *', and `char **', respectively
used to define integer-, scalar-, and array-parameters, so for
those macros the pointer to the parameter value should be the
address of a variable of type `long', `char *',or `char **',
respectively, pointing in turn to the desired value.
- Parameters used in a module that don't have special behaviour
shouldn't be declared in this way, instead they should just be
created in `boot_' with the standard parameter functions.
GSU (get, set, unset) structures are defined in Src/zsh.h for each of
the parameter types scalar, integer, float, array, and hash.
