Hi,

the help for <rsup|script> states the following:
"When a right script is attached to an operator (or symbol) which accepts
limits, then it is rendered below or above instead of beside the operator"

Unfortunately, I was unable to find out how to define such an operator that
accepts limits.

To be specific, I want to write a macro for entering weak limits, i.e.
something that behaves like "lim" but is rendered differently e.g. "wlim".

I have attached a small file to illustrate this. I'm using TeXmacs version
1.0.5.

Any help would be very appreciated.

Thanks,

This is how normal lim looks like:

<\equation*>
lim<rsub|n>x
</equation*>

But just prepending a single char turns it into:

<\equation*>
wlim<rsub|n>x
</equation*>

I now want to write a macro wlim that can be used just as if I had entered
lim, i.e.

<\itemize>
<item>the limit may be entered with _ and appears depending on
math-display below or after wlim. (I know that I can force it to appear
below using A-b (script below))

<item>I don't have to manually add additional whitespace after wlim.
</itemize>

In short, entering ``\\wlim _n x'' should do the trick.

Any ideas? Thanks for your time!
