Hi David, > I am irritated that \shape applies \once automatically.
I seem to recall there are a couple of other functions which do so as well (though I don’t currently recall what they are). Would it be a good idea to standardize the codebase such that functions never apply \once automatically, or are there good reasons not to have such a coding convention? > If you use it in a context modification \with { ... }, however, > \once will get ignored and the shape will apply to the whole context. Ah! That’s useful.
