Only one thing: when the variables are not set (forgot the environment parameter, file not correctly set, ...) I would like to set default values. How would I do that? %\enablemode[variables] \startmode[variables] \setvariables [test] [one=One, two=Two] \stopmode \starttext \doifelsevariable{test}{one}{1: \getvariable{test}{one}}{??}\par \doifelsevariable{test}{two}{2: \getvariable{test}{two}}{??} \stoptext Wolfgang
