I see, that indeed could be tricky. define is a special form which is
interpreted differently at top level or inside a function. In particular I’m
not sure what will happen with a define inside a TeXmacs macro. But I think
you can try tm-define because this define symbols directly in the common
environment which all the scheme evaluation inherit. I think this is more
what you want.

Hi Massimiliano,
I have tried extern and it did not work.
More precisely it seems that within extern I cannot write a define ...
instruction, but to be sure I would have to try again. I postpone and will
write together with the rest.

I have been able to do the automatic loading. It is described in the
help files, it took me a bit of time to follow the thread.
The right instruction is <use-module|([dir1 [dir2 ... dirn]] filename)>
where the Scheme list indicates the path, which as far as I understood
must be a subpath of one of the paths that TeXmacs know about
(~/.TeXmacs/progs is one of them, so if dir1 is a subdirectory of
~/.TeXmacs/progs, TeXmacs will find and load the Scheme files).
The style file itself can be put in the "user" directory of TeXmacs,
that is again ~/.TeXmacs, under /packages, and it will appear in the
"Document->Style-> Add package" menu.
I have not yet understood how to execute a macro only once inside
TeXmacs, so the macros I use to define the list of formats get executed
every time TeXmacs wants to (there is an update mechanism that I do not
understand but I guess it is the general update mechanism of TeXmacs).
The multiple execution has no effect, as the macros I wrote check for
the existence of a format before adding it, but I would like to correct
this and get the behaviour I want (only one execution for this macro).
If anyone has a suggestion, thanks in advance.
I have updated the files at
https://github.com/pireddag/formatRef and I
think it is possible to use them even if they are not robust (multiple
executions that I have mentioned above, missing checks on input) and
incomplete.
Incompleteness that I see: it is not possible to define a format where
the reference number is within parentheses, as the format string is
always before the reference. I have in mind a solution with
string-split, and perhaps for making it general I would need to
understand better the TeXmacs format (with trees) and how to manipulate it.
