Hello,

why the MP code doesn't draw "%" and "#" when it uses TeX's \U - inside
MP block?:

----
\def\T{TTT}
\def\U{UUU \letterpercent\letterhash}

\starttext
   \letterpercent
   \letterhash
   \par
   \startMPcode
     draw btex AAA etex;
     draw textext("\T");
     % draw btex \T etex; % Err
     draw btex \T{} etex; % OK
     draw textext("\U") shifted (2cm, 0); % Should draw "%" and "#" now
- where is it?
   \stopMPcode
\stoptext
----

TIA for explanation.

concerning the \T, just look at this:

\edef\crap{draw btex \T etex;} \show\crap

concerning the \U, use the next in order to prevent a % becoming a comment down the pipeline:

\unexpanded\def\U{UUU \letterpercent\letterhash}
