Well, for the previous reply, I just looked at the difference between LaTeX and ConTeXt's definitions. > How about: > \def\@@mathlimopcomm#1{\mathop{#1}\displaylimits} > I checked up with the TeXbook and both should be equivalent. Quoting from the TeXbook * double bend at the end of page 144 If you say \nolimits\limits (presumably because some macro like \int specifies \nolimits, but you do want them), the last word takes precedence. There’s also a command ¥displaylimits that can be used to restore TEX's normal conventions; i.e., the limits will be displayed only in styles D and D'. * page 292 (summary of math mode) ¥displaylimits, ¥limits, ¥nolimits. These commands are allowed only if the current list ends with an Op atom. They modify a special field in that Op atom, specifying what conventions should be used with respect to limits. The normal value of that field is ¥displaylimits. So, if I understand correctly, there is no difference between ¥mathop{...} and ¥mathop{...}¥displaylimits. Aditya
