\type -- extra space in TABLE

\type -- extra space in TABLE

[Tomas Hala]

Hi all,

in the following code

\starttext
\type{6\az12}    % \az = \anycommand

\bTABLE
  \bTR\bTD\type{6\az12}\eTD\eTR
\eTABLE
\stoptext

there is a different behaviour of \type: while its parametr 
in normal text is printed out as is (expected), in the TABLE
the extra space is displayed after the command.

Is it ok? 
How could I suppress the extra space?

Best wishes 

Tomáš

\definetype[mytype][type][compact=absolute]

\mytype{6\az 12\bz{123}}

\bTABLE
   \bTR\bTD\mytype{6\az12\bz{12}}\eTD\eTR
\eTABLE
\stoptext

but it doesn't look at numbers. I can send you a patch (but maybe it 
should become options or so, not tham manu use this i guess)
