Hi all !
let us imagine we have defined the following command:
\def\SideFigure#1#2#3#4#5% { \placefigure[#1]{#2}{\externalfigure[#3][width=#4\makeupwidth]} #5 }
which can be used to put a figure aside a companion text...
but, what happens if the text is to be typed... ??
I guess this won't work:
\SideFigure{right}{pack2}{../figures/tcltk/pack2.jpg}{0.25} { \starttyping pack .ok .cancel .help -side top \stoptyping }
How can I make it to work?
hm, you could just omit #5 and it would probably work otherwise you would need to do do a multi step like: \def\XXX#1#2#3#4% {\begingroup \obeylines\doXXX{#1}{#2}{#3}{#4}} \long\def\doXXX#1#2#3#4#5% {\place....[]{}{}\scantokens{#5}} or so (untested and probably not correct) 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
