Hi using a normal text editor to enter the macro works for me. If
however if I use texmacs and in normal mode tries to enter the macro as
follows:
\assign --> <assign||>
eqref --> <assign|eqref|>
\macro --> <assign|eqref|<macro|>
lab|Equation \reference -> <assign|eqref|<macro|lab|Equation
<reference|>
so far so good, but when I try to enter the arg macro with \arg I
just get <assign|eqref|<macro|lab|Equation <reference|args> instead of
  <assign|eqref|<macro|lab|Equation <reference|<arg|>>>> and I'm stuck.

If I use 'Edit Preample' I get something like
<inactive|<assign|eqref|lab|Equation <inactive|<reference|>>>> and I
have the same proble in inserting the arg macro.
It seems that the source view (edit preample) is not working correctly
(unless I'm still missing something). I'm using TexMacs version 1.99.
Anyhow, your solution of using a editor like kate to type in the macro
works for me.

Thanks for your help

Marc Mertens
