Hi all, Forwarded from c.t.t.; see below. Any comments? W From: Christophe Jorssen <[log in to unmask]> Subject: ansinew.def makes @ other Hello all, I'm surprised that ansinew.def (from the inputenc package), and probably other <inputenc>.def, begins with a \makeatletter and ends with a \makeatother, loosing the catcode that @ had when entering the file. Is there a reason for that? Wouldn't it better to save the catcode of @ and then restore it? What do you think? -- Christophe
