Details

• The one box every environment draws a figure from: a canvas, a terminal and a native view read the same primitives, tagged by address. Show lowers to it.
• Rules stay data; each drawer resolves them per mark.
• Prints as -Graphics- in text, as Wolfram does.
• Wolfram holds a figure's marks in a list, GraphicsBox[{}] when empty. A built box here holds them in a RowBox (GraphicsBox[RowBox[{}]]), so the example states Wolfram's form as inert data.

Examples

Basic #

a box is inert: it evaluates to itself
