Hi all, I want to expand a macro inside a block when the block is written and not when it is used. Here a simple example:
\defineblock[myblock] \hideblocks[myblock]
\starttext
\define\mynumber{1} Some text: mynumber is :\mynumber \beginmyblock This is mynumber inside the first myblock, I want 1 and I obtain: \mynumber \endmyblock
\define\mynumber{2} Some text: mynumber now is :\mynumber \beginmyblock This is mynumber inside the second myblock, I want 2 and I obtain: \mynumber \endmyblock
\useblocks[myblock] \stoptext
This produce:
Some text: mynumber is :1 Some text: mynumber now is :2 This is mynumber inside the first myblock, I want 1 and I obtain: 2 This is mynumber inside the second myblock, I want 2 and I obtain: 2
instead I want:
Some text: mynumber is :1 Some text: mynumber now is :2 This is mynumber inside the first myblock, I want 1 and I obtain: 1 This is mynumber inside the second myblock, I want 2 and I obtain: 2
It is possible in some way?
no (at least not in a trivial way) ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
