Re: [NTG-context] gobbling previous space

2007/12/9, Idris Samawi Hamid :

Dear gang,

For some macro writing, I need a low-level command that will gobble the space before it so that

========= Here is some text.% \mycommand =========

is equivalent to

========= Here is some text. \mycommand =========

without the %. I'm sure there's a context command for this hidden somewhere...

Best Idris

You can use \removeunwantedspaces, it use plain TeX's \unskip primtive but only in horizontal mode. Wolfgang
