Dear List,

I would like to ask how to define a command, \same, such that

    \same{\type{a   b c}}

produces the same result as its argument does

    \type{a   b c}

The naive way doesn't work because it makes all the spaces collapse:

    \define[1]\same{#1}

I would also like to ask whether this could be achieved using the lua interface:

    \startluacode

    interfaces.definecommand {

       name="same",

       -- catcode/mode/arguments = ???

    }

Thanks in advance.

Best,

Sylvain
