Types
States (enumerated types) and other scalars
Parser is controlled by state sequence that's largely independent of the state of the smarts in any conversation. Parser represents the user's wishes. After parsing is complete, other processing determines whether these wishes can be granted.
ParseState: TYPE = {
idle, getStr, getSeq, getFeep, getNum, inStr, inSeq, inFeep, inNum, inTossStr };
This state is essentially a superset of Thrush.StateInConv. It is used to express the user's wishes; when wish and reality coincide, it is set to the corresponding StateInConv, and quiescence follows, at least temporarily.
Control of the Lark hardware state (remaining types)
LarkState: TYPE = {
none,     -- Initial state
idle,     -- Phone not in use
talking,    -- Etherphone conversation in progress
trunkSignalling,  -- "Feeping"
trunkTalking,  -- Standard telephone conversation in progress
trunkForwarding, -- Like trunkTalking, but call is forwarded to some other Lark
trunkFlashing,  -- Implementing special switchhook flash
failed,    -- This Lark has died and its brain is dying, too.
ringing,    -- Ringing loudly through Lark speaker
silence,    -- Dial tone has been broken, dialing in progress.
dialTone,    -- Caller hears dial tone.
ringBack,    -- Caller hears ringing.
busyTone,   -- Caller hears busy signal.
errorTone    -- Caller hears fast busy signal.
};
ProgressTones: TYPE = LarkState[dialTone..errorTone];
SwitchState: TYPE = { onhook, telset, speaker, sPEAKER, monitor, mONITOR };
Encodes the progression of states of the telset switchhook (sh) and the speakerphone switch (sw) (which can progress from off to on, from on to off, or when on can be "clicked". The state machine is approximately:
onhook => telset (sh on), speaker (sw click), sPEAKER (sw on)
telset => onhook (sh off), monitor (sw click), mONITOR (sw on)
speaker => onhook (sw click), sPEAKER (sw on), telset (sh on)
sPEAKER => onhook (sw off), mONITOR (sh on)
monitor => telset (sw click), speaker (sh off), mONITOR (sh on)
mONITOR => telset (sw off), sPEAKER (sh off)
There are some other transitions that shouldn't happen, but are treated in as harmless a way as possible when they do. Outside events can also cause SwitchState to revert to onhook, whatever the settings of the switches. In this situation, the assumption is that all switches are off; subsequent off transitions are ignored.

Click and ring detect timings
swOnTime: CARDINAL𡤀,
Lark reports the time when a ringing voltage is detected on the telewall, and the time when the voltage goes away. There can be an on-off glitch when the phone is hung up, and ringing is an alternating thing, so we need to interpret these signals before passing on to higher levels. See LarkInImpl.

Ringing control information
When a Note in a tune specifies "notify", expectedNotification is incremented (mod the lower-case letters) and sent along to the Lark. When the Lark finishes that note, it notifies the smarts, and eventually LarkOut, using that value. It's possible (though not desired) for this notification to precede the "WAIT" that pends notification. In this case, we mustn't wait. See LarkOutImpl.DoTones and ditto.WaitQ. receivedNotification is set to a value outside the range just after each WAIT opportunity terminates.

receivedNotification: Lark.Event ← 'Y,

LarkCall: TYPE = REF LarkCallBody;
There is increasing need for specifications, such as text-to-speech synthesis information and such, which needs to be communicated synchronously to the Lark, but which is too application-specific to be dealt with explicitly here. To achieve such a call, one issues EnterLarkState[...., sameState, [.... , LarkCall, ...]]. This will be queued for the Lark supervisor, which will invoke the LarkCall if the Lark is in one of the standard conversation states. It won't work during any of the tones states, failure states, idle state, etc. The callback proc should do very innocuous things, ultimately invoking info.interface.SomeLarkProc. Error recovery on failure is handled by the supervisor.

Smarts-to-LarkOut Procedures
ENTRY version
EnterLarkState: PROC
[ info: LarkInfo, newState: LarkState, data: LIST OF REF ANYNIL ];
Put this lark into the indicated state, setting tones, crossbar, ethernet connections, whatever else is appropriate to the state. By this point, the higher levels are supposed to have sorted out any conflicts between the requirements of the two Smarts (Lark and LarkTrunk) that control the Lark. A single state may not be enough to do that, in the long run.
Data is a list of (at this writing):
Party.PartyInfo (containing connection specifications)
Lark.KeyTable
LarkPlay.toneSpec
Thrush.ProseSpecs
Atom.DottedPair (allows keyword values to be presented):
$audioSource: [$lineA, $lineB, NIL ($telset)]
$transmitOnly: [$TRUE, $FALSE]
$phoneNumber: "number to dial"
$textToSpeech: [$TRUE, $FALSE]
The KeyTable should be accepted and forwarded on to the Lark whenever it appears, while the others will be interpreted relative to newState.
Making everything a dotted pair would be less efficient but more uniform.
INTERNAL version
EnterLarkSt: PROC
[ info: LarkInfo, newState: LarkState, data: LIST OF REF ANYNIL ];
QueueFeeps: PROC
[ sInfo: SmartsInfo, feeps: Rope.ROPE ];
SetupTimeouts: PROC[info: LarkInfo, debugging: BOOL ];
A number of timeout behaviors are different if the Lark is under development than if it is part of the operational system. Whether it's operational is determined by the database, properly the domain of Smarts-level code, but how to set the timeouts is the domain of the Lark-level code, thus this procedure to connect them together.
Deb: PROC[info: LarkInfo, c: CHAR, p1, p2, p3, p4: IO.Value←[null[]]];
Smarts-to-LarkIn Procedures
InterpretHookState: PROC
[ info: LarkInfo, rawEvent: Lark.StatusEvent, sInfo: SmartsInfo ]
RETURNS [ processedEvent: Lark.StatusEvent ];
CheckHookState: PROC
[ info: LarkInfo]
RETURNS [ onHook: BOOLTRUE ];
Determines if user terminal appears to be offhook. May not be able to tell if there's
a "click-mode" speakerphone call in progress.
LarkIn-to-LarkOut Procedures
INTERNAL version
TonesDone: PROC[ info: LarkInfo, commandEvent: Lark.StatusEvent ];
A way to feed back tone completions, initiated by LarkOut, back to LarkOut from LarkIn.
Feep tones don't go through this path, since higher-levels need to know about the situation.
