Subject: \type macro weird?
Date: Mon, 25 Apr 2011 22:05:44 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <6FA803DB-1B15-468E-989B-CFB524833D1D@uva.nl> (raw)
This works fine:
\starttext Here a type macro <\type{\abc}> \stoptext
This also:
\starttext \placetable{table \type{abc} title}{abc} \stoptext
This too:
\starttext \placetable{table \type{\blank} title}{abc} \stoptext
But this gives an error (mind the \ before abc).
\starttext \placetable{table \type{\abc} title}{abc} \stoptext
Do I misinterprete something here?
I just wanted to typeset "\abc" in the type-font.
Why is the very first \abc treated as text to typeset but requires the placetable argument that it is an existing macro?
Or isn't this the intended behaviour?
