Hi, I look for a convient way to use \appendtoks with a token list which is accessed with \csname ... \endcsname, e.g. \appendtoks <something> \to\csname <mytoks>\endcsname This works when I enclose the \csname/\endcsname pair in braces \appendtoks <something> \to{\csname <mytoks>\endcsname} but this did not look very pleasant to my eyes. I thought something similar to \addvalue would be nice \addtoks{<mytoks>}{<something>} Wolfgang

actually, i'm considering an extra set but with a different syntax, like \appendtotoks\name{...} which sometimes saves passing an argument but there is some trickery in the current macros that keeps {} that needs to be preserved; also, on the luatex agenda is an append primitive so we need to cleanup this bit anyway i'll give it a thought Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
