Re: conditional macros problem

Sorry, I did get this message after all.  I didn't realize it had been
sent earlier today!

    I want a macro @LE which produces a real less-than sign in TeX output

In this case, I think by far the simplest solution is to define @le{}
and @ge{} as real Texinfo commands.  Although we can't easily define
every math character, clearly these two are extremely common, so
defining them seems reasonable.  That much is easy to do, and I'll work
on out.

As Eli said, trying to define an @emacro command will probably create
worse headaches than it solves.

The more general solution is to make texi2dvi work for this case, by
avoiding the @[if]tex parse errors.  That should not be too hard.  Way
easier than @emacro anyway.

(The most general solution is to fix macros, but I'm tired of saying
that. :)

Best,
karl
