>From TeX.SE, the following solution works; however, it doesn't feel like
the "ConTeXt way":
% SOT
\setuplocalboxes[leftmargin][
style=\bfd,
color=darkred,
distance=0pt,
]
\unprotect
\define\quoteinitial{%
\futureexpandisap“\quoteinitial_true\quoteinitial_false%
}
\define\quoteinitial_true{%
\localmargintext[leftmargin]{“}%
\expandafter\placeinitial%
\gobbleoneargument%
}
\let\quoteinitial_false\placeinitial
\protect
\starttext
\quoteinitial “We held ConTeXt in high esteem.” \samplefile{bryson}
\quoteinitial We held ConTeXt in high esteem. \samplefile{bryson}
\stoptext
%EOT
Any suggestions for how to improve it?
