Re: [NTG-context] eqno not in math

Something strange occurs in math, doing:

\placeformula\startformula H(K|M,C) = H(K|C) - H(M|C)\eqno{\hbox{(\in{}[eq:keyapp])}} \stopformula

Please use: \placeformula[-]\startformula

produces the following error: ------------------------------------ ! You can't use `\eqno' in math mode.

This message is a bit misleading. Knuth means to say: ! You can't use `\eqno' in non-display math mode. ... and that is precisely what happens when you try to use \eqno in a formula that is numbered automatically already. Cheers, taco
