Thanks!

Unfortunately, the linux64tex.zip appears to be missing the binaries. It
also looks like you also haven't updated your site to list its
existence.

[Which kinda balances out in the end, doesn't it? ;-) ]

i'll have a look (btw, you can use the old binaries since nothing changed in that part)

\type ,\meaning eror check

[luigi.scarso]

I have this problem:

%% test.tex
%-save this with utf-8 encoding--------------
\language[it]
\enableregime[utf]
\newif\ifArticleError
%%
\def\startArticle[#1]{%
\getparameters[ARTICLE][#1]
\setbox101=\vbox{%
\csname ARTICLEdescription\endcsname%
}
%% here some sorts of checking
%% if there are some errors
%% while expanding
%% \csname ARTICLEdescription\endcsname ;
%% check will change state of \ifArticleError
%%
\ifArticleError
%%  errors:
%% typescript macros \ARTICLEdescription
\type{description:}%
\edef\T{\expandafter%
\meaning\csname ARTICLEdescription\endcsname}%
\aftersplitstring \T \at>\to\Temp%
\expandafter\type\expandafter{\Temp}%
\else %% else ok
\type{OK}%
\fi
}
%%
\starttext
{{\bf Hòàà}\framed{wrong  framed macros}}
\startArticle[description={{\bf Hoòaà}\framed{ok  framed macro}}]
\startArticle[description={{\bf Hoòaà}\Framed{WRONG  framed macro}}]
\stoptext
%--------------------------------------------------------------------

where
oò := {o\`o}
aà := {a\`a}

compile it with
$>texexec --pdf --batch test.tex

Problems

   1. i dont't know how to make checking
   2. \type does not combine well with \meaning: ò (ie {\`o} ) is not show.

thanks in advance

AFAIK, there is only one way to do this: write a new tex file on-
the-fly and run a separate texexec on that file (using \write18),
then parse the resulting log file for the occurence of any errors.
Not simple at all, I'm afraid.

This is a side-effect of TeX being an 8-bit program that doesn't
understand utf-8 itself. utf-8 in ConTeXt works by virtue of the
first character of a sequence having catcode 13 (\active), but
\meaning never outputs any catcodes except 12 (character) and 10
(space). This can be fixed by calling \scantokens:

   \expanded\type{\expandafter\scantokens\expandafter{\Temp}}%

I'll consider the possibility of adding a new primitive to pdfetex
(the language) for the discovery of run-time errors like this. That
will not help you at this moment, though.

Sorry, the correct solution is:

  \expandafter\expandafter\expandafter\type
  \expandafter\expandafter\expandafter
    {\expandafter\scantokens\expandafter{\Temp}}%

or, a bit shorter but needing \(un)protect:

  \@EA\@EA\@EA\type\@EA\@EA\@EA{\@EA\scantokens\@EA{\Temp}}%

My original post only \expanded the single token \type, not the whole
argument.

Cheers, Taco

sounds good, thanks
(I was missing some \expandafter ...)

- provide a zipped file (so that i get the right chars)
- don't use box 101 ungrouped (it's probably in use)
- get the meaning with:

\convertcommand\ARTICLEdescription\to\ascii\ascii
