Hi,
why does \usemodule load the requested file with “prtcatcodes” settings
when nearly each module has \unprotect and \protect at the begin and
end of the file?
I ask this because of a recent question [1] on the list where a user
defined shortcuts for math. Maybe a module isn’t the perfect thing
for these things and he can put them in a environment but now comes
the next problem.
When you load a environment in this way:
\environment myenvironment
\starttext
…
\stoptext
the file is loaded again with prtcatcodes while in the following form
\startproduct myproduct
\environment myenvironment
…
\stopproduct
the environment is loaded with ctxcatcodes. While prtcatcodes make sense
for a module i can’t understand why they are used for environments.
much of this goes back a long time .. we used to have only m-* and
styles were normally environments; and when defining interface
independent environments unprotect makes sense ... we can consider
removing that (but then need to check for environments on our machines
that use ! etc)
