Hi Gavin, > Why not use a different name for the \lw macro defined in the @tex > block, so it isn't used in its own definition? That's the cause of
Ok, I tried your suggestion, but that again breaks: code >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \input texinfo @c -*-texinfo-*- @iftex @tex \def\aaa#1{Hello #1} @end tex @end iftex @macro bbb{word} @tex \\aaa{\word\} @end tex @end macro @bbb{World} @bye >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> gives ./bla.texinfo:15: Undefined control sequence. l.2 \aaa {World} \scanmacro ...atspaces }\scantokens {#1\texinfoc } \aftermacro l.15 @bbb{World} tested with latest texinfo.tex The problem goes away when the I use @macro bbb{word} \\aaa{\word\} @end macro (without the @tex ...@end tex) Is this just an incorrect usage of macro definitions and @tex in the original sources, that "just happened" to work till 6.0, or is there something else behind?
