I want to use ConTeXt macros from within typing, like

\define[1]\mysquare{#1$^2$}

\starttyping
this is verbatim text /mysquare{j}
\stoptyping

it works with macros that do not take arguments, but with arguments
the open curly brace seems to be considered for the macro name and an
undefined ... error is produced. 

A related problem is that I cannot have e.g. a comma after a macro
name because then also the name is not recognized.

Help will be appreciated! :-)
