I've been staring at this for a while now. I would have expected
this to work:
\setuptyping
[before={\startframedtext
[width=fit,align=lohi,frame=off,location=middle]},
after={\stopframedtext}]
\starttyping
bla bla bla
bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
\stoptyping
but it doesn't.
Cheers, Taco

you mean that you want centered verbatim?

Hello Hans,
with align=middle, the typing is aligned line by line. What I'm looking for
is this:
normal text in a paragraph, normal text in a paragraph, normal text in a
paragraph, normal text in a paragraph, normal text in a paragraph, normal
text in a paragraph, normal text in a paragraph, normal text in a
paragraph, normal text in a paragraph, normal text in a paragraph
on line of typing
second line of typing but longer
normal text in a paragraph, normal text in a paragraph, normal text in a
paragraph, normal text in a paragraph, normal text in a paragraph, normal
text in a paragraph, normal text in a paragraph, normal text in a
paragraph, normal text in a paragraph, normal text in a paragraph
Cheers, Peter

Hello Hans,
I don't understand, it's still not centred...
Or do you mean, I have to put the typing into a box,
measure the width of the box, and then calculate the
right margin ((\textwidth - \typingwidth) / 2) ?
Greetings, Peter

Ok, this seems to work:
\def\startTypeMidaligned{%
\dostartbuffer[typemidaligned][startTypeMidaligned][stopTypeMidaligned]}
\def\stopTypeMidaligned{\setuptyping[margin=0pt]%
\setbox\scratchbox\hbox{%
\framed[frame=off,offset=overlay,align=lohi]{\typebuffer[typemidaligned]}}%
\setuptyping[margin=\dimexpr (\textwidth - \wd\scratchbox) / 2 \relax]%
\typebuffer[typemidaligned]}
\starttext
\input tufte
\startTypeMidaligned
bla bla bla
bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla
\stopTypeMidaligned
\input tufte
\startTypeMidaligned
bla bla bla
blub
\stopTypeMidaligned
\input tufte
\stoptext
Can be wikified ;)
Cheers, Peter
