Hi,
I have a macros which I use in a environment with uppercase letters
but I want to define them in my module as lowercase with namespace
and look for the best method to convert all of them from lowercase
to uppercase, below is what I have for the moment, is there a better
how I can do this (without \ascii)?
\unprotect
\def\saved!one{one}
\def\saved!two{two}
\def\savedcommands#1%
{\edef\ascii{\csname saved!#1\endcsname}%
\uppercase{\expandafter\let\csname#1\endcsname\ascii}}
\processcommalist[one,two]\savedcommands
\protect
\starttext
\ONE\ -- \TWO
\stoptext
Wolfgang
