Subject: \pounds problem
Date: Wed, 31 May 2000 21:12:01 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <000501bfcb2b$d0919fa0$530761c3@chris> (raw)

hi all,

I am trying to produce a £ symbol. I just want to use the standard TeX \pounds as I don't want to be bothered with \language[uk] or \useencoding[win]. The problem is that I get an "Undefined control sequence" when \pounds is parsed. It seems to be a ConTeXT problem because this particular document (which I have fully converted) compiles under LaTeX and as I understand it \pounds is a TeX macro which should be the same in LaTeX and ConTeXT.

Thanks for your help,
Christopher
