I would like to accomplish the following in xml processing.
<node macro="various macro calls"> and then define the attribute value as a TeX macro.
For example, to use this in font switching: <node macro="\switchtobodyfont[helvetica]">
Doing this in the following manner does not work:
\startxmlsetups namespace
\def\macro{\xmlattdef{#1}{macro}{\empty}}
\stopxmlsetups
The contents evaluates not to a working macro.
Something with catcodes, I presume, but I do not how to do it properly.
Preferably I would like to see \meaning\macro evaluate to: \switchtobodyfont[helvetica].
Can someone enlighten me?
