When I code:

I find extra space typeset between "abc" and "pqr".

This extra space is absent when I code
      abc {\variant[xyz]pqr}
Thus the space in the source between ] and pqr makes a difference in the result.

Clearly visible in:
abc {\variant[xyz] pqr} abc {\variant[xyz]pqr}\crlf
abc {\Var[xyz]pqr} abc {\Var[xyz] pqr}\crlf

I would think that this should not happen.

The whitespace goes away by inserting an \ignorespaces in the variant- definition.
\def\variant[#1]% slow
  {\dosetscaledfont
   \expanded{\definedfont
[\truefontname{\fontstringA\fontstylesuffix\fontvariant \fontstringA{#1}}
        at \scaledfont]}\ignorespaces}


Still using version 2005-11-14, forget this if already corrected in the latest version of the 30th.


before we do that ... do others agree (taco, adam ...)?

I can't get the example to compile. Whatever I do, context insists
on creating SerifRegular.tfm through mktextfm (sigh). I'm too lazy
to figure out what is going on right now, so can someone create a
full minimal example, please? I'd like to check this with all
tracing on, because it hints are a problem deeper down somewhere.

Cheers,
Taco
