You could use \definecommand.
Wolfgang Wolfgang, thanks for pointing me to this. What is the reason of this unfriendly behavior? I can understand if the \definecharacter command is gone in mkiv, but simply taking the arguments and sending them into nirvana? It was a bit difficult for me to see where the errors in my environments came from, so I'm really wondering what this is supposed to do. well, i was not aware of users using \definecharacter
(i can make it a chardef if needed)
Hey, you should know that your users use ConTeXt for all kinds of weird and deviant purposes :-)
I have it in some of my private modules/environments, e.g. for creating symbols and a metrical font. What would you suggest using instead?
\definecharacter etc were closely related to font encoding, so unless you defined them in 'default' encoding you had to replicate the definitions in each fotn encoding a more natural variant for your case is \definesymbol or just \def\MyFunnySymbol{...} ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
