userexecprivate is for internal communication between modules of userexec, and, in certain exceptional cases, for use by privileged clients. If you are using this interface, please let me (Teitelman) know about it.
it is subject to change without notice.

Concrete types for opaque types in userexec
ExecPrivateRecord and related types
ExecPrivateRecord: TYPE = MONITORED RECORD[
historyList: HistoryList,
id: ROPE, -- i.e. A, B, ... Z, AA, AB, etc.
execState: GlobalExecState ← notListening,
eventState: LocalExecState ← readyForNext,
for dealing with the interpreter
evalMode: BOOLEANFALSE,
actionAreaData: REF ActionAreaData ← NIL,
spawnedActionArea: ExecHandle ← NIL,
evalHead: BBEval.EvalHead ← NIL,
the following relate to interactions with typein and output.
lastChar: CHARACTERNULL, -- lastcharacter output to (or echoed to) exec.out .used in UserExecImpl.DefaultDeliverWhen, e.g. to remember if a CR was preceded by a '.
dontPrompt: BOOLEANFALSE, -- for continuing an event, e.g. following ESC completion. What the user sees on the input line is accurate.
continuation: BOOLEANFALSE, 
eventNum: INT ← 1, -- the event number of the next event to be created. used to prompt the user. Also used in UserExecInterpImpl.TreatAsExpr and used in HistoryImpl.CreateEvent.
advice: LIST OF Advice ← NIL, -- list of expressions to be evaluated when userexecutive is again ready for input.
lastLine: ROPENIL, -- holds last input line. ExecProcessInput obtains the input from this field. Used in UserExecImpl.DefaultDeliverWhen to handle treatment of esc.
for compatibility with old Exec interface
execDotW: TTY.Handle, -- UserExecRegCmdsImpl.CallRegisteredProc sets Exec.w to this before calling a procedure registered through Exec.AppendCommand
process: UNSAFE PROCESS, -- initialized to Process.GetCurrent[] when exec handle is created. used by UserExecImpl.GetExecHandle to find out which exec the current process is under. Also used to determine the parent for a spawned action area.
following deals with problems of synchronizing input/output to exec where may have several events running simultaneously.
execOwner: UNSAFE PROCESSNIL, -- usually itself
execOwnerCount: INT ← 0, -- to permit clients to Acquire/Release Exec without having to worry about previously owned in same process.
in, out: STREAMNIL
];
GlobalExecState: TYPE = {notListening, listening, dormant, suspended, destroyed};
ExecState contains the global state of the exec. EventState describes its state with respect to the current event. There is some redundancy, in that if execState = destroyed, eventState could never be running. However, execState might be dormant or notListening and eventState could be running, e.g. if DoIt were called directly.
LocalExecState: TYPE = {readyForNext, receivingInput, running};
readyForNext means at prompt. receivingInput means user has already typed something.
ActionAreaData: TYPE = RECORD[
action: BBAction.Action ← NIL,
parentExec: ExecHandle ← NIL,
world: WorldVM.World ← NIL,
viewer: Viewer ← NIL,
fullMsg, abbrevMsg, iconMsg: ROPENIL,
aborted, booted: BOOLFALSE, -- when action = NIL, this says whether it was proceeded or aborted. Used in userexecimpl
tiogaDoc: BOOLTRUE,
restoreSelAfterEachEvent: BOOLFALSE,
start, end: TiogaOps.Location ← [NIL, 0],
level: TiogaOps.SelectionGrain ← char,
caretBefore: BOOL ← NULL,
pendingDelete: BOOL ← NULL

Advice: TYPE = REF AdviceRecord;
AdviceRecord: TYPE = RECORD[before, after: PROC[data: REF ANY], data: REF ANY];
Events and expressions
HistoryEventPrivateRecord: TYPE = RECORD[
eventNum: NAT,
value: TVNIL, -- move to userexec
state: EventState ← notFinishedYet,
offender: ROPENIL, -- set by EventFailed so that when event completes, can tell that it caused an error
showInput: BOOLEANFALSE, -- tells userexec to print the event it is about to execut
inCommandFile: BOOLEANFALSE, -- either cm or commands
inCMFile: BOOLEANFALSE -- true when inside of a CM file
];
ExpressionPrivateRecord: TYPE = RECORD[
tree: BBInterp.Tree ← NIL,
valueRope: ROPENIL,
goForIt: BOOLFALSE
];
EventState: TYPE = {notFinishedYet, causedAnError, aborted, completed};
EvalHead
EvalHeadData: TYPE = RECORD[
exec: UserExec.ExecHandle,
viewer: Viewer,
generators: REF GeneratorsRecord ← NIL, -- for use in correcting interpreter errors. need to be separate for each exec because can now do evaluation in many execs.
expr: Expression ← NIL,
defaultInterface: ROPENIL,
confirmMenuUp: BOOLFALSE
];
the type of the REF stored in BBEval.EvalHead.data. Used in various Help procedures. Included here so that can set defaultInterface field in UserExecInterpImpl
GeneratorsRecord: TYPE = RECORD[
typeElementGenerator: Spell.SpellingGenerator, -- used to generate elements in a type, e.g. record, globalframe, etc.
enumTypeGenerator: Spell.SpellingGenerator, -- used to generate the elements of an enumerated
subrangeGenerator: Spell.SpellingGenerator, -- used to generate the elements of a subrange type
frameGenerator: Spell.SpellingGenerator -- used to generate global framenames and interface names from cached list

The following procedures should not be of interest to any client of userexec, even a wizard. The only reason they appear in an interface is that they happen to be called from more than one module.
RunAndCall: UserExec.CommandProc;
defined in UserExecOpsImpl, also called from UserExecMethodsImpl by ImplicitRunAndCall
RunBCDFile: PROCEDURE[fileName: ROPE, fileCapability: File.Capability ← File.nullCapability, callDebuggerFirst: BOOLFALSE, out: STREAM] RETURNS[name: ROPE, error: ROPE];
