These symbols, which may appear anywhere that a definition or @@Use
symbol may appear, tell Lout to include the contents of a file in the
preamble of its output. For Basser Lout this means that the file must
contain PostScript (and ideally it would begin and end with the
@Code "%%BeginResource" and @Code "%%EndResource" comments of
DSC 3.0). For example,
@ID @Code {
"@SysPrependGraphic { diagf.lpg }"
}
appears at the start of the Diag package; the file @Code diagf.lpg
contains a number of PostScript definitions used by Diag for drawing
diagrams. It saves a lot of space to include them just once at the
start like this, rather than with every diagram. @@PrependGraphic and
@@SysPrependGraphic search for the file in the same places as @@Include and
@@SysInclude respectively.
