Hi,
is it possible to pass a list in a variable? I'd like to pass a list
of authors:
\startchapter[title={Foo Bar}][authors={Alice, Bob}]
% PSEUDOCODE
% for author in \structureuservariable{authors}
% do print(author + '\crlf')
% done
\stopchapter
Search the wiki. Look for "Comma Separated Lists." There is a variant
with an author list as an example.
You may need additional brace levels around the list entries.
I'm not sure this is on the wiki ...
\starttext
\startchapter[title={Foo Bar}][authors={Alice, Bob},AUTHORS={Bob,Alice}]
\doloopovermatch {[^, ]+} {\structureuservariable{authors}} {
(#1)\crlf
}
\doloopovermatch {[^,]+} {\structureuservariable{authors}} {
(#1)\crlf
}
\doloopovermatch {[^,]+} {\structureuservariable{AUTHORS}} {
(#1)\crlf
}
\doloopovermatch {[^,]+} {\structureuservariable{AUTHORS}} {
\doloopovermatch {.} {#1} {
(##1)
}
\crlf
}
\stopchapter
but feel free to add it.
Hans
