Perhaps missing braces in buff-ini.mkiv?
Dear list, it seems as if there are braces missing in the definition of \buff_save around #2. \def\buff_save[#1][#2]% {... {\setupcurrentsavebuffer[\c!list={#1},\c!file=#2]}% ...} I think they are missing, because it makes the following work, even though arguments and key-value arguments shouldn't be mixed up. \startbuffer[hash] foo \stopbuffer \savebuffer[hash][hello.txt,prefix=no] \starttext \stoptext I think you should either make a third argument for a key-value list or just make the second argument the key-value list. Then users could input \savebuffer[hash][file=hello.txt,prefix=no]. Cheers, Henri

the first argument can be a key/value list in which case the second one is ignored \savebuffer[list=hash,file=hello.txt,prefix=no] Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

I'd still recommend adding braces around this #2. Imagine a user does this \savebuffer[hash][my,file,name,with,commas.txt] Cheers, Henri

such behaviour is true for all kind of things, normally a user will then add the { } also, using commas in filenames is not that clever Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
