Subject: #'s in MPinclusions
Date: 22 Jan 2003 11:21:40 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <vg0wukxqybv.fsf@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
The following code results in an error.
\startMPinclusions
vardef a@#(text t) = @#(t) enddef;
\stopMPinclusions
\starttext
Hello.
\stoptext
! Illegal parameter number in definition of \theMPinclusions.

(
<argument> vardef a@##(
text t) = @##(t) enddef;
\startMPinclusions ...tions ;}}\writeMPgraphic {#1
}}
l.3 \stopMPinclusions
I know that # is a special character in TeX, but is there a way to get
abound this? What I actually trying to do, is to make a diagram
drawing package that I wrote for Metapost, work in ConTeXt. So I would
like to include the Metapost macros once and then use them later in
drawings, that is,
<include the Metapost macros in one way or another>
\starttext
... we now have the following commutative diagram.
\startuseMPgraphic
<my code for the diagram>
\stopuseMPgraphic
\useMPgraphic
\stoptext

Alle spørgsmål er lige dumme.
Og spørgsmålet "Kan ænder flyve?" er ikke dumt.
