hi,
i'm still trying to make my code run with mkiv. here are two minor
problems. the first one is easy to deal with, but the second one
currently breaks my testbed.
% engine=luatex
\setupcolors[state=start]
\starttext
\startMPcode
label("no color",origin) withcolor red; % always black
\stopMPcode
\string{\{}
\stoptext
greetings, peter

Interesting problem, that one. The lack of color is easily explained
because there is an implied textext() around the string., but it is
not that easily solved, I suspect.
> \string{\{}
Side note wrt. the example: don't you want \string\{ instead?
Anyway, the underlying problem is something for Aditya to look at,
maybe. Too many commands are now 'math mode only' because of changes
in char-def.lua.
Best wishes,
Taco

i currently use sometxt() instead (was label because of much better
runtime in mkii). i guess it's one of the last places where i use text
inside mp, so it doesn't hurt that much. mh, maybe i should extract the
outlines (it's only one char) instead.

nope. the argument is a formal macro description with parameters in
braces and brackets. it's part of the testbed for my graphic macros.

thanks for the detailed answer.

actually this was a bug but probably only taco has the version that
fixes it (after all, we must stay at least a week ahead of you)

thanks wolfgang! but sadly it's not the only argument of \string (my
example was bad).
