Re: About \setupheadertexts : simplify a code

[Otared Kavian <otared@gmail.com>]

Hi Aditya,

I tried to typeset your example, but got an error: whether or not the command
	% macros=mkvi
is present on the fist line, then ConTeXt complains saying that
	! Illegal parameter number in definition of \MyHeader
and stops typesetting pointing to the command \stoptexdefinition.

What am I missing here?
Thanks for your attention: OK
