Something’s wrong with my code.
I’ll try to keep a status to output a certain marker only the first time
after a change. With the code below I get it never.
I guess it’s an expansion problem again, but I didn’t find the right
places for \expanded – if I use it in front of every \getvariable, I get
the output every time.
Please help…
