At the moment I have I my document: {\switchtobodyfont[1.25em]\bf M}ust

{\switchtobodyfont[1.25em]\bf N}ot now
But I like to have a macro for this, so I could just do: \Acronym{Must Should Could Not~now}
Is more readable and when I want a change (for example another color for the first letter), this is much easier to implement. How should I implement such a macro?
Use recursion! \definestartstop [FancyFirstLetter] [style={\switchtobodyfont[big]\bf}, color=red] \def\FancyUppercase#1% {\dostartFancyUppercase#1\dostopFancyUppercase} \def\dostartFancyUppercase#1#2\dostopFancyUppercase {\FancyFirstLetter{#1}#2} \def\Acronym#1% {\dostartAcronym#1 \dostopAcronym} \def\dostartAcronym#1 #2\dostopAcronym {\doifsomething{#1} {\FancyUppercase{#1} %space \dostartAcronym#2 \dostopAcronym}} \starttext \loggingall \Acronym{Must Should Could Not~now} \stoptext Aditya
