+%                       IF and Predicates
+%                       -- --- ----------
+
+% A "predicate" is a macro that returns \@true or \@false as its value.
+% Such values are suitable for use with the \if conditional.  For example:
+%
+%   \if \@oddp{\x} <then-clause> \else <else-clause> \fi
+
+% A predicate can be used with \@setflag as follows:
+%
+%   \@setflag \flag = {<predicate>}
+
+% Here are the predicates for TeX's repertoire of conditional
+% commands.  These might be more appropriately interspersed with
+% other definitions in this module, but what the heck.
+% Some additional "obvious" predicates are defined.
