[Therion] Tex and Therion comment characters

[Bruce Mutton]

Good evening

I'm trying to sort out some problem I'm having debugging a tex-map routine.

I'm trying to rule out things that might be causing unexpected results
(other than the obvious which is that I don't know what I am doing).

 

The comment character for tex is %

The comment character for Therion data files is #

 

Does it affect the way tex is interpreted by Therion if the two are
combined, as in the two examples below?

Mostly it seems to have no effect, but now I am wondering if I am mistaken,
and sometimes it does?

 

# Define Map title overrides 

code tex-map

# % Output map title as determined by Therion 5.3 is stored in cavename. 

# % It will be empty if there are multiple maps selected for any one
projection

# %   \edef\temp{\the\cavename}        % cavename from Therion   

# %   \edef\nostring{}                 % empty string 

# %   \ifx\temp\nostring             % test if cavename is empty

 

# Define Map title overrides 

code tex-map

  % Output map title as determined by Therion 5.3 is stored in cavename. 

  % It will be empty if there are multiple maps selected for any one
projection

 %   \edef\temp{\the\cavename}        % cavename from Therion   

  %   \edef\nostring{}                 % empty string 

  %   \ifx\temp\nostring             % test if cavename is empty

 

Thanks

Bruce
