Colored text in \type?
I'm writing up some computer notes for my students, and I have examples of variables and other commands which involve characters like % and underscore. These are typeset with \type{%t^y_8*&} for example. What I would like to do is to color these as well. However \color[blue]{\type{%t^y_8*&}} doesn't seem to work; nor does {\blue \type{%t^y_8*&}} So - how do I obtain colored text within \type?

Hello Alasdair. Try use \definetype : \definetype[rtype][color=red,style=type] \definetype[btype][color=blue,style=type] \starttext \type{%t^y_8*&} \rtype{%t^y_8*&} \btype{%t^y_8*&} \stoptext Jaroslav Hajtmar Dne 2.9.2011 6:49, Alasdair McAndrew napsal(a):

Thanks very much - that works perfectly. I didn't know about \definetype.
Thanks again,

Hello Alasdair.
Try use \definetype :
\definetype[rtype][color=red,**style=type] \definetype[btype][color=blue,**style=type]
\starttext
\type{%t^y_8*&}
\rtype{%t^y_8*&}
\btype{%t^y_8*&}
\stoptext

No problem with mkiv.
You don’t even need \type in mkiv: \asciimode \starttext \definehighlight[one][color=red, style=mono] \definehighlight[two][color=green,style=mono] \mono{%t^y_8*&} \one{%t^y_8*&} \two{%t^y_8*&} \stoptext Wolfgang
I'm using MkII - are there any particular advantages to using MkIV? -Alasdair On Fri, Sep 2, 2011 at 10:34 PM, Wolfgang Schuster < schuster.wolfgang@googlemail.com> wrote:
