Is it possible to do an equivalent of \renewcommand{\command}[args]{text}
for a reserved character such as the caret (^)? For example, if I want to reduce the space after every superscript, i.e. i would want a^b to be replaced by a^b\! systematically?
Many thanks

Redefine reserved character
Hi Andy,
welcome to the board!
You could make ^ to an active character and then define a macro for it:
