To handle eprints in a bibliography, I have defined the following macro:

<assign|eprint|<macro|text|<hlink|<with|font-family|tt|[<arg|text>]>|http://arxiv.org/<arg|text>>>>

If the bibliography contains a tag like
<eprint|cond-mat/0612369>
this is supposed to display "[cond-mat/0612369]" and hyperlink to "http://arxiv.org/cond-mat/0612369";

Problem is - the concatenation of the two parts of the hyperlink does not seem to work. As soon as I click on the link, I get the following backtrace:

--------------------------------------
In unknown file:
?: 0* [link-follow-ids ("%8C37E6C-A239A10")]
?: 1* [ovl-apply (100 . #<procedure #f (ids)>) (("%8C37E6C-A239A10"))]
In /home/nen10015/local/NNlab/src/texmacs/TeXmacs/progs/kernel/texmacs/tm-overload.scm:

330: 9* [string-index {(concat "http://arxiv.org/"; "cond-mat/0702295")} #\#]

--------------------------------------

So it seems, the <hlink||> tag does some kind of implicit quoting of the second argument. How would I work around this?

Greetings,
Norbert
