Subject: typebuffer different from typefile
Date: Sun, 24 Apr 2016 10:31:06 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <A1793F63-72BD-403E-83FD-1374F75F4BC6@ziggo.nl> (raw)

Why is there a difference in syntax between typing buffers and typing files?
For files enclosure in {} for buffers in [], for files optional parameters, for buffers not.
Is it possible to make the syntax of these two the same, because their usage parallels each other?
Example code:
\startbuffer[test]
content of buffer
\stopbuffer
\starttext
\typebuffer[test]
\typefile[style=\ttx]{test.txt}
\stoptext
