Hi all,
I need to pass a short text as parameter to a defintion. My problem is, that the significant spaces are removed in this process. Hmm.....no clue.
% interface=en output=pdftex \starttext
\def\TextWithSpaces#1{\framed{\obeyspaces#1}}%
A two-part solution is needed:
\def\TextWithSpaces{\bgroup\obeyspaces\doTextWithSpaces} \def\doTextWithSpaces#1{\framed{#1}\egroup}
i suggest that rolf adds en entry to the wiki, with the posted solutions, maybe we need a "how tex treats arguments" corner or so 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
