Hello Wolfgang,

Thanks.

\def\comm{\thinspace\groupedcommand\tt\thinspace}

works quite well.

From a newbie standpoint, I wonder why replacing \thinspace with \hspace[medium] fails?

It did not fail, you forget only the braces.

\def\comm
{\groupedcommand{\hspace[medium]\tt}{\hspace[medium]}}

To get more control over the spacing define your own \hspace:

\definehspace[commspace][medium]

\def\comm
{\groupedcommand{\hspace[commspace]\tt}{\hspace[commspace]}}

Wolfgang

(I had another version

\def\comm#1{\hspace[medium]{\tt#1}\hspace[medium]}

it worked.)
