What is the difference between somecmd and csname somecmdendcsname?
This is a demo
documentclass{article}
usepackage{soul}
makeatletter
newcommand{mydef}[2]{%
expandafterdefcsname my#1endcsname {#2}
}
newcommand{mygetdef}[1]{%
ifcsname my#1endcsname csname my#1endcsname else #1 not defined fi%
}
makeatother
deftest{some text to complete}
mydef{xxx}{some text to complete}
begin{document}
ultest % it works
%%%% if uncomment, the below one does not work, an error is reported
% ulmygetdef{xxx}
end{document}
As the comment says, if ulmygetdef{xxx}
takes place, there comes a error:
! Argument of SOUL@@ has an extra }.
