[NTG-context] wrong spacing after command with optional arguments

26 Apr 2024

      Dear list,

I have the following sample:

  \starttext
  \def\MyCommand{\doquadruplegroupempty\doMyCommand}

  \def\doMyCommand#1#2#3#4{%
    \iffourthargument
      #4%
    \orelse\ifthirdargument
      #3%
    \else
      #2%
    \fi}

  \MyCommand{}{second}{third}{fourth},\\
  \MyCommand{}{second}{third}{fourth} e,\\

  \MyCommand{}{second}{third},\\
  \MyCommand{}{second}{third} e,\\

  \MyCommand{}{second},\\
  \MyCommand{}{second} e,\\
  \stoptext

I don‘t know why only the command gets the space after right only when
the four arguments are provided.

What is wrong in my definition above?

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo
