Hi Thomas,
in latest:
since you're in 'latest mode' ... here is an experimental feature that
you can test in the mkiv version of your modules
\starttext
\startbuffer
\getcheckedparameters[MyTest][MyNamespace][a=1,b=2,c=3,d=4,crap=whatever]
\MyNamespacea\quad
\MyNamespaceb\quad
\MyNamespacec\quad
\MyNamespaced\quad
crap is \ifdefined\MyNamespacecrap\else un\fi defined
\stopbuffer
\enablecheckparameters
\setvalidparameterkeys[MyTest][a,b,c,d] \getbuffer \par
\addvalidparameterkeys[MyTest][crap] \getbuffer \par
\stoptext
in due time we can add such testing to all mkiv commands but then we get
the key info from the xml database
technically we can check for values as well, but since for many commands
values can be anything tex, we'd get too many errors reported so only
keys can be checked
when enabled this checker also intercept spaces as in a = b but not
trailing spaces (i.e. before the comma or ]) because that would break
compatibility with for instance label settings and such
the overhead of this mechanism if small (some .1 sec on 10K calls)
