Dear gang,
Consider a control sequence \MyCS. It has three possible definitions:
\def\MyCS{<def1>}, \def\MyCS{<def2>}, \def\MyCS{<def3>}
What I would like is to define \MyCS once such that
<def1> takes effect when \tf is invoked
<def2> takes effect when \it is invoked
<def3> takes effect when \bf is invoked
something like (incorrect syntax but you'll get the point)
\def\MyCS{%
\if\it<def1>
\else
\if\bf<def2>
\else
<def3>}
How can I do this> Any tips greatly appreciated!
Happy Holidays!
Idris

You could modify the following macro from font-ini.
\def\fontstylesuffix
{\ifx\fontalternative\c!tf \s!Regular \else
\ifx\fontalternative\c!bf \s!Bold \else
\ifx\fontalternative\c!sl \s!Slanted \else
\ifx\fontalternative\c!it \s!Italic \else
\ifx\fontalternative\c!bs \s!BoldSlanted \else
\ifx\fontalternative\c!bi \s!BoldItalic \else
\ifx\fontalternative\c!sc \s!Caps \else
\s!Regular \fi\fi\fi\fi\fi\fi\fi}%
Wolfgang

something like this should work (if I get you right)
\ifx\fontalternative\c!tf <def1> \else
\ifx\fontalternative\c!it <def2> \else
\ifx\fontalterantive\c!bf <def3> %
\fi\fi\fi
search fo \fontalternative in the base (font-ini.tex and alike)
Best wishes, Peter
