let's say i have this in a TeX document: \def\variable{somevalue} how can i use a switch or if statement, testing for this value? \if \variable{somevalue} does not work and neither does the \ifx version. the only way i can get it to work is by doing this: \def\variable{somevalue} \def\somevalue{somevalue} \ifx \variable\somevalue which is a hack at best. does anyone have a better tip, short of the ifthen package? -- .''`. martin f. krafft <madduck@debian.org> : :' : proud Debian developer, admin, and user `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system
