Dear knights,
The following works in mkii but not mkiv:
=====================
\starttext
test
\blank[2\bodyfontsize]
test
\stoptext
=====================
=====================
! Illegal unit of measure (pt inserted).
system > tex > error on line 8 in file bodyfontsize.tex: Illegal

4 \blank[2\bodyfontsize]

\relax
l.8 }
\dovspacingyes ...#1\else \currentvspacing \fi ")}

Is there a new protocol for accomplishing this now in mkiv? What is it?
Thnx and

MkIV use Lua to parse the arguments for \blank and for argument
like above you need “\the\dimexpr2\bodyfontsize” or use arguments
like “2*line”.
