Re: [PATCH] @quote-args for multiple arguments

Hi Sergey,

    the documentation (neither @quote-args nor @allow-recursion were
    documented

I had intentionally left them undocumented since I didn't see that they
served any purpose.

Quoted args can be handled with @comma{} (I believe; I never really
understood @quote-args, really), and recursive macros with @rmacro.  So
when would anyone ever want to use @allow-recursion?

Also, names containing - can't be defined properly in TeX, so I'm really
not sure these bfox-isms should be documented.  Your TeX definitions of
\def\quote-arg and \def\allow-recursion are really defining \quote and
\allow, as delimited macros.  Not a good idea.

But I'll at least see about installing the code improvements since you
went to the trouble of working on it.  Thanks.  (And for the txi-pl.tex
fix.)

Best,
Karl
