Hi all!
Is there any way to define XML command synonyms? Assume that one defined
\deifneXMLenvirnment[subsubsubsubsection] {.......} {.......}
How to define 'SSSS' as a synonym of 'subsubsubsubsection' without wrtiting
the same code twice?
Thanks, Pawe/l

Though the following does not yet really work the solution must be looked
for in the following instructions to Context:
\definesection[SSSS]
\setupsection[SSSS][subsubsubsubsection] %the section SSSS inherits the
settings of subsubsubsubsection
\definehead[Pawel][section=SSSS]

Sorry, apparently I missed part of the message while thinking of a solution.

From DocbookInContext:
%D A \type{\let} for XML environments
\def\letXMLenvironment#1#2%
{\letvaluevalue{\@@XMLelement:#1/}{\@@XMLelement:#2/}%
\letvaluevalue{\@@XMLelement:#1}{\@@XMLelement:#2}%
\letvaluevalue{\@@XMLelement:/#1}{\@@XMLelement:/#2}}%
Works for XMLenvironment.

Thanks a lot, but I'm afraid that doesn't work. TeX complains about
undefined control sequence:
ConTeXt ver: 2002.5.24 fmt: 2003.9.3 int: english mes: english
....
! Undefined control sequence.
\letXMLenvironment #1#2->\letvaluevalue
{\@@XMLelement:#1/}{\@@XMLelement:#2...
l.15 \letXMLenvironment{chapter}{X}
?
! Emergency stop.
\letXMLenvironment #1#2->\letvaluevalue
{\@@XMLelement:#1/}{\@@XMLelement:#2...
l.15 \letXMLenvironment{chapter}{X}
End of file on the terminal!
Is my ConTeXt to old?

\letcsnamecsname\csname\@@XMLelement:#1\endcsname\csname\@@XMLelement:#2\endcsname
etc, but before you enter that track, what exactly do you want?

In example; assume that 'subsubsubsubsection' is already defined part of a
document
\defineXMLenvironment
[subsubsubsubsection]
{\subsubsubsubsection}
{\relax}
Now I would like to define some abbreviations like 'SSSS' (or 'ssss' or even
'S4') in the way that
<SSSS> ... </SSSS>
will work as well as
<subsubsubsubsection> ... </subsubsubsubsection>
Of course I can rewrie environment definitions for each needed abbreviation,
but it doesn't seems to be clever way...
Another simple example;
defineXMLargument
[center]
{\midaligned}
How defne 'mid' tag as a synonym of 'center' without rewriting
defineXMLargument
[mid]
{\midaligned}
So the <bf>question</bf> is how to define <b>synonyms</b> for XML elements,
singular commands, entities...

I use it in the same way as let, but for XML environments. For
example,
store the current value
\letXMLenvironment{origindexterm}{indexterm}%
redefine XML environment indexterm,
do some work,
restore the old value
\letXMLenvironment{indexterm}{origindexterm}}

in that case:
\expandafter\pushmacro\csname...\endcsname
\expandafter\popmacro\csname ...\endcsname
is nicer since it works nested as well
wo maybe we should have: \pushXMLmeaning \popXMLmeaning
\def\pushXMLmeaning#1%
{\@EA\pushmacro\csname\@@XMLelement:#1/\endcsname
\@EA\pushmacro\csname\@@XMLelement:#1\endcsname
\@EA\pushmacro\csname\@@XMLelement:/#1\endcsname}
\def\popXMLmeaning#1%
{\@EA\popmacro\csname\@@XMLelement:#1/\endcsname
\@EA\popmacro\csname\@@XMLelement:#1\endcsname
\@EA\popmacro\csname\@@XMLelement:/#1\endcsname}
Does that suit your needs?

I have never used \pushmacro, but if I see it right, it pushes the
macro on a stack for later restore. That would suit the example I have
given. But it would not always satisfy me. For example, when I want to
use a predefined value as the new value:
store the current value
\pushXMLmeaning{indexterm}%
redefine XML environment indexterm,
e.g. as \letXMLenvironment{indexterm}{specialindexterm}
do some work,
restore the old value
\popXMLmeaning{indexterm}

Hi Hans, hi Simon!
First of all THANKS a lot for both of you for helpful hints and sugestions.
After many tests and experiments I decided to use
construction:
\def\XMLsynonym#1#2{%
\letcsnamecsname\csname\@@XMLelement:#1/\endcsname\csname\@@XMLelement:#2/\e
ndcsname
\letcsnamecsname\csname\@@XMLelement:#1\endcsname\csname\@@XMLelement:#2\end
csname
\letcsnamecsname\csname\@@XMLelement:/#1\endcsname\csname\@@XMLelement:/#2\e
ndcsname}
It works ok and suits me best since I (almost) understand HOW it works :)
Using constructions which I don't understand makes me a little bit
frustrated.
I'll do my best to understand other constructions as well.
Thanks a lot, Pawe/l
