Hi, Found an interesting sometxt misfeature. \startMPinclusions boolean test ; test=true ; \stopMPinclusions \startbuffer[test] if test : label(\sometxt{True}, origin) ; fi ; label(\sometxt{False}, (10,10)) ; \stopbuffer \processMPbuffer[test] \blank[big] \startMPinitializations test := false ; \stopMPinitializations \processMPbuffer[test] Too bad context cannnot parse metapost syntax :) Workaround (ugly) \startTeXtexts \TeXtext{1000}{True} \stopTeXtexts \startbuffer[test] if test : label(sometxt(1000), origin) ; fi ; label(\sometxt{False}, (10,10)) ; \stopbuffer \processMPbuffer[test] Aditya

Too bad context cannnot parse metapost syntax :)
Workaround (ugly)
Another workaround, slightly less ugly (as long as you count the number of \sometxt in the if part. \startbuffer[test] if test : label(\sometxt{True}, origin) ; else : txtnext := txtnext + 1 ; fi ; label(\sometxt{False}, (10,10)) ; \stopbuffer \processMPbuffer[test] Aditya
