In core-rul.tex we have
%D We define the general (and original) case by just saying: \defineframedtext[\v!framedtext]
This defines
\startframedtext ... \stopframedtext and \framedtext{...}
This gives strange user behavior. Consider the following
\defineframedtext[test][width=broad]
\showframe \starttext
\starttest \input tufte \stoptest
\startframedtext[test] \input tufte \stopframedtext
This should be:
\dostartframedtext[test] ... \dostopframedtext
The "[test]" is interpreted as optional argument for the predefined \startframedtext ... \stopframedtext environment.
\stoptext
The two framedtext have different widths. Why not say
\def\startframedtext {\dosingleempty\dostartframedtext}
\def\stopframedtext{\dostopframedtext}
Take a look into core-rul.tex,
\startframedtext is a short form for \dostartframedtext[framedtext] and \starttest for \dostartframedtext[test].
I understand why this is happening. However, I think that the behaviour is inconsistent with how rest of the things behave, and was asking for a change in core-rul.tex. Aditya
