Re: [NTG-context] What would you call the core TeX-commands

Suggestions so far: initex: As initex is the command used to create TeX formats and only contains the core TeX-commands coretex: As they are the core TeX-commands The reason I ask is because I've written the new core-TeX-syntax-definition for Vim and I'd like to get the name right. the commands defined in cont-en.xml are core commands; quite some commands in syst-gen, syst-ext, syst-new and supp-box are also 'frozen' Hans - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

What I meant was, the commands defined in the TeX-executable itself, i.e., stuff like \def, \global, I think that initex makes the most sense considering the options. ctxtools can list them (e.g. --sciteinterface gives several classes of primitives, macros, etc) Hans - Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl - ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
