class PDF::Content::Ops
-----------------------

A graphics machine for building and interpeting PDF Content operator streams

Description
-----------

The PDF::Content::Ops role implements methods and mnemonics for the full operator table, as defined in specification [PDF 1.7 Appendix A]:

This method returns the x,y position of current point in a path context, or an undefined list otherwise.

### multi method op

```raku
multi method op(
    Pair $_ where { ... }
) returns Mu

process operator quarantined by PDF::Grammar::Content / PDF::Native::COS as either an unknown operator or having an incorrect argument list

### multi method op

```raku
multi method op(
    *@args is copy
) returns Mu
```

Process a parsed graphics operation

### multi method ops

```raku
multi method ops(
    Str $ops
) returns Array
```

Parse and process graphics operations

### multi method ops

```raku
multi method ops(
    @ops
) returns Array
```

Parse and process a list of graphics operations

### method add-comment

```raku
method add-comment(
    Str $_
) returns Mu
```

Add a comment to the content stream

### multi sub parse-content

```raku
multi sub parse-content(
    Str $content where { ... }
) returns Mu
```

parse, but don't process PDF content operators

### method finish

```raku
method finish() returns Mu
```

Finish a content stream

### has Str $!content-cache

serialize content into a string. indent blocks for readability

### method content-dump

```raku
method content-dump() returns Seq
```

serialized current content as a sequence of strings - for debugging/testing

### method FALLBACK

```raku
method FALLBACK(
    $method,
    |c
) returns Mu
```
