Okay, it works until I place an an argument in the stretched command. def\MyChapterCommand#1#2{ \framed[align=center,frame=off,width=\textwidth]{ \vbox{ fails--> \stretched{#2} works--> \stretched{This is a Test} } } \setuphead[chapter][ command=\MyChapterCommand } I get the following error when I run texexec: ! Missing \endcsname inserted. <to be read again> \let \nextprocessedtoken ...oup \ifincolor \ifcsname #1 #3\endcsname \let \dostopa... \dodoprocesstokens ...token \let \before \between \fi \let \nextprocessedtok... <argument> This is a test: \dostartattributes {\??ko \v!title }\c!style \c!c... \processtokens ...fore \before \doprocesstokens #5 \lastcharacter \endgroup \stretched ... \relax \hss \relax {\hss \hss }{#1} \egroup ... How can I use the #1 & #2 arguments in the stretched command? On Wednesday 12 November 2008 09:28:39 am Bart C. Wise wrote:

I am trying to change the spacing of a chapter title head. I found the "\kern" command; however, I could not get that to work over a string of text.
Then I found the following code: \def\dolist{\afterassignment\dodolist\let\next= } \def\dodolist{\ifx\next\endlist \let\next\relax \else \\\let\next\dolist \fi \next} \def\endlist{\endlist} \def\track#1\by#2{\def\\{\next\kern#2}% \leavevmode \hbox{\expandafter\dolist#1\endlist}}
Then I tried:
def\MyChapterCommand#1#2{ \framed[align=center,frame=off,width=\textwidth]{ \vbox{ \track{This is a Test} \by{.2em} \track #2 \by{.2em} } } \setuphead[chapter][ command=\MyChapterCommand }
The output from the \track{This is a Test} \by{.2em} works. However, the second track command (\track #2 \by{0.2em}) fails.
I spent many hours last night trying to change the kerning. What I want is something like: \kern{TEXT}{KERNING AMOUNT}.
What's available, or how do I fix the track command above. By the way,I'm running mkii.
Search for \stretched and \stretchednormalcase.
