Sorry, but I have just downloaded and read your message. Well, this seems to be something beyond my understanding (this is all Greek to me). The only conclusion I can draw is that I have to use the second option.

Is there no way that I have the already predefined \arg with colored contents (braces included)? Even with defining another command, the problem is that left and right aren’t covered by option=TEX.

You can’t do this form a definition for a verbatim command because TeX has its own rules for such a situation (search for a description about catcodes), when you want a copy of \TeXcode add \definetype[arg][TeXcode] to your document.

[NTG-context] unwanted extra space in type definition
Dear list, I have the following sample: \definetype[TeXcode][option=TEX] \def\arg#1{\TeXcode{{#1}}} \starttext \arg{\em\de Textsatzsystem} \TeXcode{{\em\de Textsatzsystem}} \stoptext I don’t know what is wrong defined in \arg that inserts an extra space after \em?
