ELISTIZEH(PARA)

// A geometric model of paragraph indentation and alignment.
//
// Measurements are in pixels. The meaning of the integer arguments changes
// depending upon the value of justification.  Distances less than or equal
// to tolerance apart we take as "equivalent" for the purpose of model
// matching, and in the examples below, we assume tolerance is zero.
//
// justification = LEFT:
//   margin       the "ignored" margin to the left block edge.
//   first_indent indent from the left margin to a typical first text line.
//   body_indent  indent from the left margin of a typical body text line.
//
// justification = RIGHT:
//   margin       the "ignored" margin to the right block edge.
//   first_indent indent from the right margin to a typical first text line.
//   body_indent  indent from the right margin of a typical body text line.
//
// justification = CENTER:
//   margin       ignored
//   first_indent ignored
//   body_indent  ignored
//

// |  Look here, I have a paragraph.| ParagraphModel(LEFT, 0, 20, 0)
// |This paragraph starts at the top|
// |of the page and takes 3 lines.  |
// |  Here I have a second paragraph| ParagraphModel(LEFT, 0, 20, 0)
// |which indicates that the first  |
// |paragraph is not a continuation |
// |from a previous page, as it is  |
// |indented just like this second  |
// |paragraph.                      |
// |   Here is a block quote. It    | ParagraphModel(LEFT, 30, 0, 0)
// |   looks like the prior text    |
// |   but it  is indented  more    |
// |   and is fully justified.      |
// |  So how does one deal with     | ParagraphModel(LEFT, 0, 20, 0)
// |centered text, block quotes,    |
// |normal paragraphs, and lists    |
// |like what follows?              |
// |1. Make a plan.                 | ParagraphModel(LEFT, 0, 0, 30)
// |2. Use a heuristic, for example,| ParagraphModel(LEFT, 0, 0, 30)
// |   looking for lines where the  |
// |   first word of the next line  |
// |   would fit on the previous    |
// |   line.                        |
// |8. Try to implement the plan in | ParagraphModel(LEFT, 0, 0, 30)
// |   Python and try it out.       |
// |4. Determine how to fix the     | ParagraphModel(LEFT, 0, 0, 30)
// |   mistakes.                    |
// |5. Repeat.                      | ParagraphModel(LEFT, 0, 0, 30)
// |  For extra painful penalty work| ParagraphModel(LEFT, 0, 20, 0)
// |you can try to identify source  |
// |code.  Ouch!                    |
