If you need run-time TeX labels, you can use the textext() macro from metafun, or John Hobby's TEX() macro (available after "input tex;")

Hm, I tried textext(). Can it be used in vardef's? I get

! Isolated expression. <to be read again> ?

from some of my pictures. I can't make sense of it. Anyway, the affected pictures aren't coming out right. Am I doing something terribly wronge here?

Don't know. Metapost seems to be complaining about something that is part of extra_endfig, but neither trees.mp nor mp-text.mp do anything with that, so it may be completely unrelated ? If you can create a minimal file that shows the same problem and post/e-mail that, I may be able to help further. -- groeten, Taco
