Hi
The following does not compile
\starttext
\startformula
[ {\bf{Q}},{\bf {R}} ] = {\bf{Q} } {\bf {R}} - \textbf{R} \textbf{Q}
\stopformula
\stopttext
Error ! Missing \endcsname inserted
.......
where as this compiles
\starttext
$$
[ {\bf{Q}},{\bf {R}} ] = {\bf{Q} } {\bf {R}} - \textbf{R} \textbf{Q}
$$
\stoptext
Why ??
Kind regards
Wim

How do you define \textbf?

Sorry about that, I was and am busy converting
my Latex code into Context
and forgot about this definition.
I defined \textbf as follows
\def\textbf#1{{\bf #1}}
BTW Taco already gave the answer. Thanks Taco
Thanks
