Shelves: save declarations mixed with local declarations
Prerequisite Concepts     Related Syntax  

OmniMark requires that any save, save-clear, and local declarations appear before the rest of a rule. However, a local shelf declaration differs from a save declaration or save-clear declaration in several ways.

The initial value of a shelf declared by a local shelf declaration is one (1), deactivated or empty stream, depending on its type. It has no relation to any global shelf of the same name.

A local shelf may be declared after a global shelf of the same name has been saved or save-cleared. Only global shelves can be saved.

save and local declarations can be used to control various aspects of a shelf related to protecting and changing its values.
