Hello, list.
In my ConTeXt guide, I need to show the syntax of ConTeXt commands.
Below I paste a MWE showing the different possible commands, but I do
not know if there are others.
I see, however, that the result is different depending on the command
used.
Do you have any advice to give to me? Which of the commands in the
code should I use in a guide? Or better: do they have to be used
according to needs?
Are there other commands of this kind?
\usemodule[setups]
\starttext
When you describe a command, e.g.
\type{\startdescription{\cmdbasicsetup[...]} ... \stopdescription}:
\startbuffer [basicsetup]
\cmdbasicsetup [startxtable]
\stopbuffer
\typebuffer [basicsetup]
\getbuffer [basicsetup]
When you show the syntax of a command without the options:
\startbuffer [shortsetup]
\cmdshortsetup [startxtable]
\stopbuffer
\typebuffer [shortsetup]
\getbuffer [shortsetup]
When you show the syntax of a command with the options:
\startbuffer [fullsetup]
\cmdfullsetup [startxtable]
\stopbuffer
\typebuffer [fullsetup]
\getbuffer [fullsetup]
When you want to show the name of a command (similar to \tex{type}):
\startbuffer [internal]
\cmdinternal {startxtable}
\stopbuffer
\typebuffer [internal]
\getbuffer [internal]
When you want to show the syntax of a command as a float:
\startbuffer [showdefinition]
\showdefinition [startxtable]
\stopbuffer
\typebuffer [showdefinition]
\getbuffer [showdefinition]
When you want to refer to the definition:
\startbuffer [definition]
\definition [startxtable]
%\definition [startxtable,startembeddedxtable]
\stopbuffer
\typebuffer [definition]
\getbuffer [definition]
\page
When you have a generated command (e.g. \tex {placefigure}):
\startbuffer [instance]
\cmdbasicsetupinstance {placefloat} {figure}
\cmdshortsetupinstance {placefloat} {figure}
\cmdfullsetupinstance {placefloat} {figure}
\stopbuffer
\typebuffer [instance]
\getbuffer [instance]
\stoptext
