It doesn't make sense to use named parameters with \define, since you explicitly pass the parameter*number* in brackets. You cannot refer to a number by name. Well, you could theoretically, but I'd strongly object.
Just out of curiosity: why would you object? In Lua, we have the syntax function whatever(one, two, three) do something with(one, two, three) end I'm not lobbying for define to have something similar, I just want to point out that it would be in the spirit of convergence between ConTeXt and Lua. It certainly isn't an urgent need, but having \define[one,two,three] wouldn't be absurd, now would it? Thomas
