Am working towards answering this question of mine, but not quite there yet.

I suspect that \cavename is never empty, but rather is set to an empty
string by Therion in the above scenario
I have got as far as.
code tex-map
\edef\therioninferedmaptitle{\the\cavename} %save existing calculated
cavename to variable
\ifx\therioninferedmaptitle\empty %test if
therioninferedmaptitle is empty (undefined?)
\cavename={Caves of the Flora Area}
%if therioninferedmaptitle is empty set a title that describes all the caves
selected as a group
\else
%if it's not empty, do nothing, ie keep the map title value set
by therion
\fi
endcode
This works, except that the line \cavename={Caves of the Flora Area} is
never run, even when \cavename appears empty.
I have tried using \ifx\therioninferedmaptitle\"" as an alternative test
to no avail.
(All the above run without syntax errors, so I am making some progress at
least)
What I need is a bit of guidance on the correct test for an empty \cavename
Any ideas?
