I'm a mathematician working in algebra. I've been using TeX since 1987, but couldn't write my Ph.D. thesis with it. Sob!
I teach LaTeX at my university, besides the mathematics courses. I'm the author of some LaTeX packages and even of one Plain TeX package. At my site it's possible to download my book on LaTeX programming (in Italian, sorry).
Here's my motto for TeX.SX:
Pronto prontissimo son come il fulmine: sono il factotum della città . (From "Il barbiere di Siviglia", music by Gioachino Rossini, libretto by Cesare Sterbini.)

Glyph not defined in PD1 encoding, removing `\H' Please, make a minimal example that produces the problem (and remove all packages that are not essential for it). |

Print zeroes in a sparse matrix in a lighter color\newcommand{\0}{\textcolor{lightgrey}{0}} and then \0 for the matrix entry you want in grey. |

How to check if a macro value is empty or will not create text with plain TeX conditionals? Please, edit the question, then: as it stands you're asking how to test for an "empty argument" which is a very different thing. |

How to check if a macro value is empty or will not create text with plain TeX conditionals? Please, tell more clearly if "emptyness" is referred to the absence of tokens or to "no printed output": for instance, what should \mymacro{\empty} return? |
