Hi,

I've got a problem with "\blackboard". When I use it in the title of an enumeration (title=yes in setupenumerations), I get this error during compilation:

! Incomplete \iffalse; all text was ignored after line x. <inserted text> \fi

For instance:
\starttext
\defineenumeration[hello]
\setupenumerations[hello][title=yes]
\starthello{$\blackboard{ABCD}$}
\stophello
\stoptext

Yet if I replace "\blackboard{ABCD}" with \reals (or \naturalnumbers, or \integers etc.), it works fine. What's wrong?

Works fine in MkIV. In MkII, we need

\unexpanded\def\blackboard  #1{\mathortext\domathtext\donothing{\bbd#1}}

Hans, can you apply the attached patch for font-ini.mkii?
