Hello again!
Today I'm trying a lot of new (to me) things...
This time, a macro with optional arguments and \if...argument :
\def\SkillField{\dodoubleempty\doSkillField}
\def\doSkillField[#1][#2]#3{\bTR\bTD #3
\iffirstargument\hfill (#1)\fi % don't print when no optional
argument
\eTD \bTD
\ifsecondargument % if second optional arg is provided
\definefield[#2][line][Skill][#1]\field[#2]
\else % if no second optional arg
\definefield[#3][line][Skill][#3]\field[#3]
\fi
\eTD\eTR}
e.g.
\SkillField[+8][Aergern]{Ärgern} % works
\SkillField[+1]{Labern} % does nothing instead of "else"
\SkillField{Testen} % does "\hfill (#1)", but should do nothing
Apparently, the \if...argument ... \else don't work as they should.
Where's my mistake?
Grüßlis vom Hraban!
