What are the disadvantages of unexpandable commands? I'm not an expert.

You need to convert number to string first. Use decimal(r) instead

Hi all,
In a book on construction engineering I found two kind of tables that
presumably could be set very nicely in ConTeXt (see attachments). Set with
MetaPost within natural tables?
1) Curly

Thank you Hans! I can imagine that this fits on the first example.
Do you also have an idea on the second case, the arrows from one table cell to
another?
(Does it has to be so complex as in metafun manual, page 140: 5.2 Anchors and
layers??)
use textbackgrounds ... instead of drawing lines you then do a textext that
does a \left{ in math alongside a vbox that has the height of the lefgt
boundary etc etc
That would be really interesting for a project I'm working on (a
songbook). I thought textbackgrounds could only put a color

Thanks yet again :]
The metafun manual is easier to read than the 'real' mpman.pdf
which assume some of knowledge
directly. So the only solutions would be a) if ConTeXt could use
in-line SVG or b) I'll have to port the SVG logo into MetaPost.
Is there a non-overhelming howto somewhere ...It's a relatively simple
logo (see attachment) :\
svg - pdf (using inkscape) - mp (using pstoedit
Is there a SVG to MetaPost/MetaFun converter available?
I want to get this quite simple logo to converted from SVG into a ConTeXt-
native vector graphic.
Cheers,
Matija
P.S. Too bad SVG is not ConTeXt-native (yet?)

here's an approximation of your logo in metapost (the legs are wider -
