Hi all,

With the new ConTeXt beta the command \DroppedCaps donīt work.
I typeset an old Article by Jan Tschichold and it did look very nice.

my file is:

\def\MyDroppedCaps%
  {\DroppedCaps
     {} {padr9e}
     {2\baselineskip} {3pt} {\baselineskip} {2}}

\starttext
 \MyDroppedCaps Zwei
\stoptext

there is an error message: ! missing \endcsname inserted

it works with the normal ConTeXt.

Greetings

Lutz
