Dear List,

I would like to insert a page using (ideally) start/stop instructions. The problem is that this page should be inserted only in a certain mode. Consulting the mailing list, I thought the following code was working, but it’s not ! The code is executed in the mode as expected, but the following instructions ("Some other text... » in the exemple) is not typeset.

Here is a minimal (not working!) example:

% ———————————————————————————————————— \unexpanded\def\StartQuestionsList{ \startmode[ClassRoom] \page[yes] Here are some questions: \blank } \unexpanded\def\StopQuestionsList{ \page[yes] \stopmode } \definestartstop[Questions][ before=\StartQuestionsList, after=\StopQuestionsList ]

\startQuestions Question A…. Question B…. \stopQuestions

Some other text... % ————————————————————————————————————

So to be clear, I would like the result in the « ClassRoom » mode to be: % ———————————————————————————————————— Here are some questions:

Question A…. Question B….

Some other text... % ————————————————————————————————————

Otherwise to be: % ———————————————————————————————————— Some other text... % ————————————————————————————————————

If you only set `ClassRoom` mode at compile time (rather than setting and unsetting it the middle of the document), then you can do:

\definebuffer[Questions]

\startmode[ClassRoom] \define\StopQuestionsList {...}

\definestartstop[Questions][...] \stopmode

Thanks for your answer, I will try that. Fabrice,
