For most projects you'll want to use the [Document API](#document-api) instead.

It provides an ergonomic wrapper around the Core API and lets you focus on parsing

|

| doc | [terrace_document_t*](#terrace-documentt) | A pointer to the current document state struct.
|

| levelScope | int | If set above -1, `next()` will return `0` when it encounters a line with a level at or below `levelScope`
|
||||
| **@returns** | char | Returns `1` after parsing a line, or `0` if the document has ended or a line at or below `levelScope` has been encountered.
|
||||
|
||||
Advances the current position in the terrace document and populates lineData
|
||||
with the parsed information from that line.
|
||||
|
||||
Returns `1` after parsing the next line, or `0` upon reaching the end of the document.
|
||||
If the `levelScope` parameter is not -1, `terrace_next()` will also return `0` when it encounters a line
|
||||
with a level at or below `levelScope`. This allows you to iterate through subsections of a document.
|
||||
|
||||
If a lower-level line was encountered, the following call to `terrace_next()` will repeat this line again.
|
||||
This allows a child loop to look forward, determine that the next line will be outside its purview,
|
||||
and return control to the calling loop transparently without additional logic.

Intended to be used inside a while loop to parse a section of a Terrace document.

|

| **@returns** | char* | The line contents starting from `startOffset`
|
||||
|
||||
Get a string with the current line contents.
|

If `startOffset` is -1, skips all indent characters by default. Otherwise only skips the amount specified.

Given the following document

root

sub-line
|

Markdown
|
||||
- Calling `terrace_line(doc, -1)` on the second line returns "sub-line", trimming off the leading indent characters.
|
||||
- Calling `terrace_line(doc, 0)` however, returns " sub-line", with all four leading spaces.
|
||||
|
||||
`startOffset`s other than `-1` are primarily used for parsing blocks that have literal indented multi-line text

| doc | [terrace_document_t*](#terrace-documentt) | A pointer to the current document state struct.
|
||||
| **@returns** | unsigned int | The length of the `head` portion (first word) of a line
|
||||
|
||||
Get the *length* of the first "word" of a line,
|
||||
starting from the first non-indent character to the first space or end of the line
|
||||
Often used for deciding how to parse a block.
|
||||
|
||||
Because C uses NULL-terminated strings, we cannot easily slice a string to return something out of the middle.
|
||||
Instead, `terrace_head_length()` provides the length of the head portion.
|
||||
In combination with `doc->lineData.offsetHead`, you can copy the head section into a new string,
|
||||
or use any number of `strn*` C stdlib functions to work with the head section without copying it.
|
||||
|
||||
Terrace DSLs do not *need* to use head-tail line structure, but support for them is built into the parser
|
||||
|
||||
Given the following line, `terrace_head_length(doc)` returns `5`
