[NTG-context] Re: New user here!

Hello Taco That's very interesting - slightly different from XeTeX (\def\def instead of \def, for example), but I think I'll be able to work things out from there. Many thanks.

Thanks Taco. I'm sure I'll get the hang of the new tabular commands eventually - though reproducing the example on pp. 274-5 of the Not so Short Introduction doesn't quite work (the second column is shifted a line down from the first column - but I guess there's something I should have set up initially to get it to work).

It's not the definition of \yogh that would cause me any difficulty, but the fact that I can't say:

\defʒ

\def\MyHello{Hello!} \def\defʒ{\MyHello} \starttext \defʒ \stoptext

this works with mkiv (it always worked, as far as I can remember )
