Hi, The macro \repere does not create a space between the closing delimiter and the following text, why ? Thanks, Fabrice \def\repere{$\bigl(O\,;I,J\bigr)$} \starttext \dorecurse{2}{blabla} \repere \dorecurse{2}{blabla} \dorecurse{2}{blabla} $\bigl(O\,;I,J\bigr)$ \dorecurse{2}{blabla} \stoptext

Hi Fabrice, This is a normal behaviour of TeX macro commands. You should use your command by invoking it like the following: \repere\ blabla blabal Best regards: OK

Hi Otared, I did not know it because, before migrating to context, I used latex with this : \newcommand{\repere}{$\bigl(O\,;I,J\bigr)$. It's not very convenient to add \ every time ! Thanks, Fabrice 2015-08-27 11:30 GMT+02:00 Otared Kavian :

Hi Fabrice, If you use your command \repere more often in the middle of a sentence you can slightly modify the definition of your macro in order to have a space after \repere. However, when your command is used at the end of a sentence, you have to add \unskip after your command, as in the following example: \define\repere{$\bigl(O\,;I,J\bigr)$\space} \starttext \dorecurse{2}{blabla} \repere \dorecurse{2}{blabla} Déterminer la trajectoire dans le repère \repere\unskip. \dorecurse{2}{Blabla} \repere\ \dorecurse{2}{blabla} \dorecurse{2}{blabla} $\bigl(O\,;I,J\bigr)$ \dorecurse{2}{blabla} \stoptext Best regards: OK

In fact, you are both right, write the macro differently. \def\repere{\bigl(O\,;I,J\bigr)} \starttext \dorecurse{2}{blabla} $\repere$ \dorecurse{2}{blabla} \dorecurse{2}{blabla} $\bigl(O\,;I,J\bigr)$ \dorecurse{2}{blabla} \stoptext Thanks, Fabrice 2015-08-27 13:32 GMT+02:00 Peter Münster :
