Hi,
I like to achieve something that looks like this:
```
\definedelimitedtext[extract][blockquote]
\setupdelimitedtext
[extract]
[leftmargin=1.5pc,
style={\italic},
before={\setupindenting[next]},
after={\blank[1ex] \hrule \blank[1ex] \startalignment[flushright]
\tfx\italic{René Descartes} \stopalignment}]
\starttext
\startextract
Cogito ergo sum.
\stopextract
\stoptext
```
So it should setup a quotation and mentions the author.
However, here the author is hardcoded within the blockquote. I would like it to
use like this:
```
\definedelimitedtext[extract][blockquote]
\setupdelimitedtext
[extract]
[leftmargin=1.5pc,
style={\italic},
before={\setupindenting[next]},
after={\blank[1ex] \hrule \blank[1ex] \startalignment[flushright]
\tfx\italic{\getcustomvariable{author}} \stopalignment}]
\starttext
\startextract[author=René Descartes]
Cogito ergo sum.
\stopextract
\stoptext
```
Is there an easy way to achieve that?
I tried with \structureuservariable (like possible in \startchapter) but it
does not work.
not all constructs hav ethese user variables (yet)
i'll add an option for arguments tostart/stop so that you can do
\starttext
\definedelimitedtext
[dextract]
[blockquote]
[leftmargin=1.5pc,
style=italic,
before=\setupindenting[next],
after=\setups{extract:whatever}]
\definestartstop
[extract]
[arguments=yes,
before=\setups{extract:start},
after=\setups{extract:stop}]
\startsetups extract:start
\startdextract
\stopsetups
\startsetups extract:stop
\startstopparameter{author}
\stopdextract
\blank[1ex,samepage]
\hrule
\blank[1ex,samepage]
\dontleavehmode
\wordright{\itx\startstopparameter{author}}
\stopsetups
\starttext
\startextract[author=René Descartes]
Cogito ergo sum.
\stopextract
\stoptext
but first i want Wolfgang to check the patch,
Hans
