If I set up my main file thus: \starttext \input title.tex \input copyright.tex \startfrontmatter \completecontent \chapter{Introduction} \stopfrontmatter \startbodymatter \input body.tex \stopbodymatter \startappendices \stopappendices \startbackmatter \chapter{Index} %\chapter{Acknowledgement} \title{Colofon} \stoptext and set up my title.tex file thus: \startstandardmakekup Foo \stopstandardmakekup then "\startstandardmakeup" generates an error. I can work around it of course. I just wonder why it happens. The use of the \input file should be transparent to the rest of TeX.

What error? the primitive \input has some special parsing properties maybe adding \relax after the filename helps ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
