<syntax>define</syntax>
== [[Help:Reference|Syntax]] ==
* In MkII, {{cmd|define}} is like the TeX primitive {{tex|def}}: it defines a new TeX macro.
* In MkIV {{cmd|define}} is like {{tex|unexpanded}}{{tex|def}}: and \defineexpandable is like {{tex|def}}.
The optional bracketed argument denotes the number of parameters you can give
to your command. ''macro contents'' is the result when the macro gets expanded.
== Pitfalls ==
<code>\define</code> does not use {{cmdtex|long}}, ; that means that in MkIImultiple paragraphs (e.g. through {{cmdtex|par}} or {{cmd|<tt>\endgraf}}</tt>)
inside arguments will not work.
