It just occured to me that it may be that it is intended to mean that given: macro index ,t <tag-entry> this won't work: macro index ,x <tag-prefix>,t But in fact that is also false; all 4 of the following work exactly as you'd expect: macro index ,t t macro index ,T <tag-entry> macro index ,x <tag-prefix>,t macro index ,X <tag-prefix>,T at least in 1.5.21, where I just tested them. -Robin
