Hi,

Sometimes I make a definition like

\def\TR{\it}

for certain purposes (structural consistency, etc.). How do I modify this to automatically do an italic correction the way \em is set up to do in \ConTeXt?

I'd do it like this:

\def\TR{\aftergroup \emphasiscorrection\it}

see the examples:

\def\TR{\aftergroup \/\it} \startlines {\it this is a roof}right? {\TR this is a roof}right? {\TR this is a roof}, right? \def\TR{\aftergroup \emphasiscorrection\it} {\TR this is a roof}right? {\TR this is a roof}, right? \stoplines

But I bet that there is a more clever way.

Of course: \def\MyIt{\groupedcommand\it\/} \ruledhbox{\it oeps} \ruledhbox{\MyIt{oeps}} \ruledhbox{{\MyIt oeps}} Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE | pragma@wxs.nl Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: +31 (0)38 477 53 69 | fax: +31 (0)38 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- information: http://www.pragma-ade.com/roadmap.pdf documentation: http://www.pragma-ade.com/showcase.pdf -------------------------------------------------------------------------
