This only means that you need to send a request to Hans and ask for reenabling the feature, explaining that it's still usable :) :) :) It's a question from him after all (I think that I disabled the feature in my module for mkiv since it didn't work). If he was sure that it needs to be deprecated, he would not write that string :) I'm sure that there's a workaround (or at least a dozen of other ways), but I have no time (and my computer is being repaired again) to inspect right now. MKIV is both very powerful and fast, so you could probably also define strings inside metapost run, something like string mystrings[]; strings[1] := "ABC"; strings[2] = "DEF"; draw textext(strings[1]); Untested. > I've different buffers named 1–12 and would like to pipe them to Metapost.

Thank you for your help. I've tried some examples form Mojca's MyWay but the pages still empty (without the "do we need …" question). Anyway, Aditya's solution works.
