Hi all,
in an interface xml definition, what is the notation for an argument value
that is a filename? I'm just unsure whether to specify it as “cd:text”
or “cd:name”. Example:
···8<··········································································

It’s “cd:name”.
Also, is there a way to specify conditioned arguments (apart from separate setups)? E.g. parameter “p” has an effect iff parameter “q” is given as well?
No, the file lists only the available parameters, dependences have to be explained in your text. The interface file shows only how many parameters a command has and which arguments it does accept. Interface file aren't obsolete because you need them to show the command syntax in your documetation for a module, see here: http://bitbucket.org/wolfs/fancybreak/src/tip/files/t-fancybreak.mkiv Wolfgang

If you want, you can create multiple xml entries for a single command, this is what e.g. \definebodyfont does in cont-en.xml Best wishes, Taco

I forgot there is also “cd:file” but Hans use both in cont-en.xml and you can now choose with you want to use. Wolfgang
