I am relatively new to LaTeX which is why even though I have tried to read up on \newcommand
and various ways of how to use it, I still can't get the code to work.
Here's the gist of it:
I'm using \marginpar
a lot for commentary next to text in a scrbook document.
So I redefined it to save time, space and make the code more readable in general like this:
\newcommand{\sn}[1]{\marginpar{#1}}
which works fine.
However, I would like all the commentary to be in bold. So I tried:
\newcommand{\sn}{textbf{\marinpar{#1}}}
which sadly doesn't work at all.
I have tried various combinations and defining a suitable command via two steps to no avail.
I'm stuck using \sn{\textbf{Some commentary here}}
which I cannot believe to be the only solution here.
