Hi,

@, !, _ etc.\ are not recognized as part of the macro name when using MkVI named
arguments with \starttexdefinition. For example, consider the following example:

\unprotect
\starttexdefinition test@again #name
   Name is #name
\stoptexdefinition
\protect

Processing this file using

     mtxrun --script interface --preprocess test.mkvi --force

shows that #name is not recognized as a parameter. The preprocessing works if I
remove the @ from the macro name.

Aditya

ok, supported now, but of course it will only work out in unprotected mode
