checking for an undefined constant

[Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky]

Hi,

Now I check for an undefined constant like this:

\ifx \Homeworks \undefined \else Home works -- {\Homeworks} \fi

The useful part is in "else" clause.  How to swap this check so that 
"else" is not needed?

Rgrds,
Vyatcheslav

%D \macros

%D    doifundefinedelse,doifdefinedelse,
%D    doifalldefinedelse}
%D
%D The standard way of testing if a macro is defined is

%D
%D \starttyping
%D \doifundefined      {string}    {...}
%D \doifdefined        {string}    {...}
%D \doifundefinedelse  {string}    {then ...} {else ...}
%D \doifdefinedelse    {string}    {then ...} {else ...}
%D \doifalldefinedelse {commalist} {then ...} {else ...}
%D \stoptyping
%D

So

\doifdefined{Homeworks}{...}

Low level (etex) solutions:

\ifdefined\Homeworks ... \fi

\unless\ifx\Homeworks\undefined ... \fi

I suspect to use \mainlanguage[en,ua] command, if it's possible

This my test file:

\setupbodyfont[mscore,rm,24pt]
%\mainlanguage[en] %only English hyphens
%\mainlanguage[ua] %only Ukrainian hyphens
\mainlanguage[en,ua]  %%only English hyphens, no Uk

xits typescript uses file names, however OS fonts (i.e. those under
~/.fonts) can only be found by file names.

Since file and font names are essentially the same, once normalized, in
case of xits, I suggest that font names are used so it works for both
scenarios (system vs. texmf installation).

(I myself have a self may typescript just for that)

 Khaled

again {\language[en] and again some english}

Since they are written in two different scripts you can theoretically
enable them simultaneously (but I'm not sure if this is supported by
default).

two languages hyphenation

[Vyatcheslav Yatskovsky]

Hello,

I have two languages in my document: English and Russian, and want to 
enable hyphenation for both. (By default, only English words are 
hyphenated). How to achive this?

Rgrds,
Vyatcheslav
