Many thanks indeed for your concern.
Yes, you are right I do want the \widering macro from yhmath.sty Your file
will most probably solve this problem once I install the yhcmex fonts. How
can I do this on a mac?
Kindest regards,

G?rald

I am going to assume that you want the \widering from

yhmath.sty.

This was a bit tough, mostly because there is a bug

in its definition in yhmath.sty. But here goes:

\input eplain

% load the yh font for \wideparen
\font\yhten  =yhcmex10
\font\yhseven=yhcmex10 at 7pt
\font\yhfive =yhcmex10 at 5pt

% set up the math family for using it
\newfam\yhfam
\textfont\yhfam\yhten
\scriptfont\yhfam\yhseven
\scriptscriptfont\yhfam\yhfive

\def\yhex{\fam\yhfam}

% determine the hex digit for this new math family \edef\yhhex{\ifcase\yhfam
0\or 1\or 2\or 3\or 4\or 5\or 6\or 7\or 8\or 9\or A\or B\or C\or D\or E\or
F\fi}

\def\wideparen{\mathaccent"0\yhhex F3}
\def\ring{\mathaccent"17}
\def\widering#1{\ring{\wideparen{#1}}}
Test: $\widering{ABC}$.

\bye

Oddly, cmr contains the ring accent, but plain TeX doesn't

have a command to access it directly (just \aa for the accent

over an "a").

Many thanks for help.

Hello again,

Sorry for my previous message. I have been able to install the yhcmex font
and now get no error in typesetting but the wideparen does not appear in the
output, only the small circle, as shown in the attached screen capture.
Many thanks for your help and kindest regards,

G?rald

I have no reason to believe that eplain has been replaced.
