#X text 25 22 [clip_abs]: vanilla abstraction that solves the problem
of [clip] when the first argument is greater than the second;

#X text 27 69 [clip] must have its first argument smaller than the
second \, otherwise it won't work as expected. [clip_abs] solves this
problem.;
#X text 28 290 Of course it works as expected with the first argument
smaller than the second too.;

#X text 28 112 Obviously \, if you have a descending number stream
\, you can still use [clip] \, as long as the first argument is smaller
than the second. There might be some cases where the clipping values
are set dynamically \, where you can't know in advance whether the
arguments will be in order \, and that's where [clip_abs] comes in
handy.;
