command \text inside math environment not working anymore

23 Feb 2013

      Hi,

during entering some formulas in a mkiv document I realized that the
command \text is not working anymore. What is the new comḿand to embed
text into a formula?

I attached two minimal examples and the error message.

Thanks for your help. :-)
