Hi,
setting the colour in \processisolatedwords doesn't always work.
\defineframed
[myframe]
[foregroundstyle=italic,
foregroundcolor=blue]
\def\mycmd{\blue}
\starttext
%% frame works
\myframe{foo bar}
%% colour works
\processisolatedwords{foo bar}\mycmd
%% style is applied, colour is ignored
\processisolatedwords{foo bar}\myframe
\stoptext
Why is the style applied but not the colour?
Marco

because we operate on snippets of boxes (so that one can have whatever
arguments)
I'll add this:
\applytosplitstringchar \myframe{eleven twelve}\par
\applytosplitstringword \myframe{eleven twelve}\par
\applytosplitstringline \myframe{eleven twelve}\par
\applytosplitstringcharspaced\myframe{eleven twelve}\par
\applytosplitstringwordspaced\myframe{eleven twelve}\par
\applytosplitstringlinespaced\myframe{eleven twelve}\par
which operates on strings. Less robust but ok for simple strings like
your "foo bar".
