\newcommand ala ConTeXt

\newcommand ala ConTeXt

[Xan]

Hi,

In latex is wonderful be able to make abreviatures like:

\newcommand{\dist}[1]{d(\sigma_g(#1), \sigma_h(#1))}

and use like $\dist{t}$, ... for not typing all the text.

What is the ConTeXt version of that? Please CC mail me.

Thanks a lot,
Xan.

\def\dist#1{d(\sigma_g(#1), \sigma_h(#1))}
or something more context way:
\define[1]\dist{d(\sigma_g(#1), \sigma_h(#1))}

Thanks, Yue. I suspected it should be two ways: pure TeX and ConTeXt way.

see s-abr-* for examples ... one can have several (independent) 
abbreviation lists that can be called up when needed
