Hi all,
I'm using \typebuffer to typeset some metapost code. How can I tell it to either ignore tabs or treat them like 1,2,3,... spaces, instead of printing ^^I? Another question: There has been a thread on telling \typebuffer what type of code on this list some time ago, without a final solution. Is there a switch to use metapost or whatever appropriate highlighting?
\setuptyping[tab=on] % or off
That does not work here. Example file:
\starttext \startbuffer[ex] draw unitsquare scaled 1cm; \stopbuffer % \setuptype[tab=on] % \setuptype[tab=off] % \setuptyping[tab=on] \setuptyping[tab=off] \typebuffer[ex] \stoptext
None of the \setuptyp* has any effect, I alwas get ^^I^^I for the two tabs.
I have furthermore observed that typing of files via \typefile as well as \starttyping..\stoptyping are affected, opposed to \typebuffer. \typefile and the typing environment do never print ^^I for a tab, but either a space or several spaces, depending on the tab=on/off option. This behavior is what I would like to have for \typebuffer, too. How to do it? -- Eckhart
