Re: [dev-context] [NTG-context] \frak (Fractur) in math mode

Hi Hans and Taco,
Something seems to be broken with \frak. \frak does not work in math mode and works in text mode! For example
$\frak ABC$
{\frak ABC}
A workaround is to use \fraktur, which works fine in math mode, but it will be nice to remove this bug.
It has been like that almost since day one, so I am not at all sure Hans would consider it a bug, just different from LaTeX (plain). Cheers, Taco

Ok. I will document it somewhere then. But looking at the code, I can not figure out why \frak is different from \cal. The definitions look identical to me. Aditya

The difference is that \definefamilysynonym [default] [calligraphic] [sy] works, whereas \definefamilysynonym [default] [fraktur] [mr] doesn't. At least, that is my guess :-{ Best, Taco
