[NTG-context] setupinteraction and macroexpansion
Hello,
I'm a bit lost with macro expansion here. I try to use some macros to
set the title (and subject) of the PDF document. The attached minimal
example shows what I want to achieve.
I tried def, edef, gdef, define, explicit expand, expandoneafter, etc.
etc. without any success. Whatever I do, the title field in the PDF
metadata always contains the raw "\date..." command instead of the
formatted date.
Any suggestions?

Andreas\edef\mytitle{Some date: \date[y=2012,m=6,d=19]}

You can also use \definestartstop to create your command which can then be used
with \ColorSwitch{…} and {\ColorSwitch …}.
\definestartstop
[ColorSwitch]

[NTG-context] deferred variable lookup in environment?
Hi,
sorry if the subject is misleading, I'm not sure how to say it in few words.
I'm trying to have the date in a layer in an environment. In the text
using the environment, I want to be able to set the date.
If the date is not set, the current date should be used, otherwise the
set date.
This is what I've tried, but it is always the currentdate, that is
displayes.
Environment file:
\def\mydate{}
\definelayer[firstpage] % name of the layer
[x=0mm, y=0mm, % from upper left corner of paper
width=\paperwidth, height=\paperheight] % let the layer cover the
full paper
\setlayer[firstpage]% name of the layer
[hoffset=14cm, voffset=3.5cm] % placement (from upper left corner
of the layer)
{\framed[frame=on, width=4cm, height=2cm]{
% always shows \currentdate
\doiftextelse{\mydate}{\mydate}{\currentdate}
}}
\setupbackgrounds[page][background={firstpage}]
File using this environment:
\environment[testenv]
\def\mydate{2011-11-11}
\starttext
% this shows the value from mydate
\doiftextelse{\mydate}{\mydate}{\currentdate}
\stoptext
Is it possible to get \mydate in the layer?
Kind regards,
Ingo

[NTG-context] xml expression error
Why is there anexpression error here? I would expect that the expression
number(-1101) evaluates to a negative number taking part in the comparsion.
It looks as if the minus sign is not seen as an unary minus, while -1101
should have be evaluated by Lua's tonumber(-1101).
relevant code snippet is:
\xmlfilter{#1}{lpath[number(@date) <= number(-1101)]/command(...)
xml > lpath > error in expression: number(@date) <= number(-1101) =>
expr.number((ll.at and ll.at['date'])) <=
expr.number(expr.child(ll,'-')1101)
Changing number(-1101) to -10000101 does not make a difference.
The @date attribute has no problem with a negative value.

Hi again Wolfgang,
I think I understood what is going wrong with my example after your
hint: I have to remove all spaces around the separator and remove also
the braces around each entry.
That is the following works fine:
\startseplisttalk
Hacker;Up to date hacking;hacker.jpg
Hacker;Up to date hacking;hacker.jpg
\stopseplisttalk
while the following does not (as far as the filename is concerned):
\startseplisttalk
{Hacker};{Up to date hacking};{hacker.jpg}
Hacker ; Up to date hacking ; hacker.jpg
\stopseplisttalk
Add “strip=yes” to remove spaces around the cells.
\defineseparatedlist
[seplisttalk]
[separator={;},
command=\maketalk,
strip=yes]

local ee = e[1].at[what]
local t = (string.split(ee,"-"))
context.date(

we can of course accept anything but because these dates end up in
different spots it gets hairy ... also it can invalidate a pdf

[NTG-context] date handling maltreated?
Trying to do some date and time processing myself, I ran into problems caused
by ConTeXt makeing it incompatibel with the original plain TeX itself!
In the TeX-book, Appendix B one finds
(Some parameters are set by TeX itself as it runs, so it is inappropriate to
initialize them: \time, \day, \month, and year are established at the beginning
of a job; ..
Now the results in ConTeXT with a minimal example, put into the log for easier
copying into the mail:
\starttext
\writestatus{}{\meaning\date -> \date}
\writestatus{}{\meaning\day -> \the\day}
\writestatus{}{\meaning\month -> \month WHY NOT monthname?}
\writestatus{}{\meaning\year -> \the\year}
\writestatus{}{\meaning\time -> \the\time}
\stoptext
Result:
> \time-> \time
> \protected macro:->\dodoubleempty \syst_converters_date ->
\date
> \day-> 20
> macro:#1->\ctxcommand {monthname(#1)}-> \labeltext
{unknown}RROR
> \year-> 2013
> \time-> 982
I strongly ask that ConTeXt abstains from changing the definition of \month and
reverts to the exact result as given by plain TeX, i.e. a number in the range
[1-12]. Because the change makes it impossible to do calculations on the month.

Re: [NTG-context] \setvariables and database module
Hi again Wolfgang,
I think I understood what is going wrong with my example after your hint: I
have to remove all spaces around the separator and remove also the braces
around each entry.
That is the following works fine:
\startseplisttalk
Hacker;Up to date hacking;hacker.jpg
Hacker;Up to date hacking;hacker.jpg
\stopseplisttalk
while the following does not (as far as the filename is concerned):
\startseplisttalk
{Hacker};{Up to date hacking};{hacker.jpg}
Hacker ; Up to date hacking ; hacker.jpg
\stopseplisttalk
Is there a way to make the \defineseparatedlist command to be more tolerant for
the filename?
Best regards: OK

You can use “month:mnem” and “m:mnem” for the abbreviations of the months but
there is a bug in core-con.lua
function commands.currentdate(str,currentlanguage) -- j and jj obsolete
local list = utilities.parsers.settings_to_array(str)
local year, month, day = tex.year, tex.month, tex.day
local auto = true
for i=1,#list do
local entry = list[i]
local tag, plus = match(entry,"^([^%+:]+)(.*)$")
local ordinal, mnemonic, whatordinal = false, false, nil
if not tag then
tag = entry
- elseif plus == "+" or plus == "ord" then
- ordinal = true
- elseif plus == "mnem" then
+ elseif plus == "+" or plus == ":ord" then
+ ordinal = true
+ elseif plus == ":mnem" then
mnemonic = true
end
...
end
Even when you patch this you don’t get any output because context tries (in the
example below) to use the label “August:mnem” but only the label “august:mnem”
is defined.
\starttext
\date[d=1,m=8][day:ord,space,month,space,month:mnem]
\starttabulate[|Tl|l|]
\NC August \EQ \labeltext{August} \NC\NR
\NC August:mnem \EQ \labeltext{August:mnem} \NC\NR

[NTG-context] Internet archive integration into bibliography
Hullo, lately I got an great idea(TM) concerning citing internet sources. \\ Initial problem: the internet is ever changing, what says on a page today, might not be there tomorrow and in ten years' time the page might not exist at all. \\ Solution so far: just smack the date (and time) next to the link. I've seen that often and my faculty expects this from me as well. \\ Problem with the solution so far: it doesn't solve anything really. \\ Solution(TM): along with the URL and date, add the Internet Archive's link from that time next to it as well. The ‘Solution(TM)’ is a bit tedious though, so it'd be great if ConTeXt could automate this process a bit. What I'm thinking is, if ConTeXt could take the URL and date stored in the bibliography (.bbl) and combine it together to form a URL of the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine to point to that particular page at that particular time. In the document's bibliography then it could be rendered something like this: Wikipedia: ConTeXt; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ConTeXt; as seen on the day: 12th of April 2010 at 13:45 With "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ConTeXt"; being a hyperlink to just that and "12th of April 2010" being a hyperlink to http://web.archive.org/web/20100412134500/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ConTeXt Note: using any date and time works OK with the archive.org, since if the date doesn't exist in its database, it falls back to the last archived site before the date requested. What do you think? Would this make sense? If so, should we enable it by default?

If the answer is "don't do that" I can find another way to accomplish

The date-key expects its argument in a certain format but you pass
garbage values.

Re: [NTG-context] superscripts "th" "nd" "rd" "st" on dates etc..
Mojca Miklavec <mailto:mojca.miklavec.li...@gmail.com>
26. August 2015 19:36
In case that you were looking for an automated way to print the date,
here's one option:
\setuplanguage[en][date={weekday,{, },day:ord,{~},month,{,~},year}]
(And the documentation is somewhat wrong, I think it suggests to use
"day+" which doesn't work. But I should check the details again.)
The keyword to create ordinal numbers in a date has changed in MkIV.
Unfortunately I didn't manage to figure out how to do the superscript
automatically. Yes, it's 1\highordinalstr{st} like Alan mentioned, but
that only works in "manual mode".
You can’t show them as superscript when you use the \date command
but in manual mode you can also use \ordinaldaynumber.

[NTG-context] Expansion of date inside \section
Hi,
I'm trying to generate daily reports and wanted to include the date in
bookmarks, but there is some weird (non)expansion going on.
I might just as well switch to lua for certain parts of the document
(like cycling through dates), but I suspect that there must be some
trivial hack to prevent me from getting my sections labeled
date[y={2016},m={06},d={25}]

No but you can remove the space with Lua.

It's because each language requires a different output, but I share
your thoughts.

Thank you. This should go to command reference, I guess (but I'm not
sure what is the current upstream method to add new commands; wiki?).
Is there any specific reason why hour and minutes are not supported in \date?

[NTG-context] \installlanguage questions
Hello, I have few questions about command \installlanguage. First, in file lang-ini is command \setuplanguage for default language. It has parameters lefthyphen, righthyphen and hyphen. I would like to ask if these parameters can be used in command \installlanguage or not and what is their funcionality becouse I have tried use command: \setuplanguage[cz][lefthyphen=@,righthyphen=@,hyphen=€] and I didn't see any changes. I thought it's used to setup hyphen mark when the word is spilt at the end of line but I still get symbol - Also I would like to know whats the difference in \date and parameter date in \installlanguage? In parameter date in \installlanguage are curly backets, it's just some mask for command \date? Or those two are entirely different? Thank you answers.

G’Day,
Having a first go at converting TEI XML to ConTeXt.
Steep learning curve, but easier (for me) than XSLT, and first results were

guide.
Currently stuck on converting an ISO format date (eg. 1908-01-10) into
something more readable (eg. 10 January 1908) in the output. I presume I
should create a function (?luacode) that can take any ISO value and output the
readable form. The following works but seems to me inefficient.
Grateful for any pointers.

Here is my MWE:
\startbuffer[demo]
10.I.08
19 Mar '08
\stopbuffer
\startxmlsetups xml:initialize
\xmlsetsetup{#1}{date}{xml:date}

\docdate[day,month,year] = Document Date \par

}}
\docdate[day,month,year] = Event Date\par
}
\stopxmlsetups
\starttext
\xmlprocessbuffer{main}{demo}{}
\stoptext
Can be wikified ...
\startluacode
function xml.finalizers.tex.MyDate(e,what,how)
local t = string.split(e[1].at[what],"-")
context.date(
{ y = t[1], m = t[2], d = t[3] },

)
end
\stopluacode
\startxmlsetups xml:date

} {
\xmlfilter{#1}{./MyDate("when-iso","day,month,year")}\
Event Date\par
}
\stopxmlsetups
I couldn’t get this to work.
Had to change it to:
\startluacode
function xml.finalizers.tex.MyDate(e,what,how)
local ee = e[1].at[what]
local t = (string.split(ee,"-"))
context.date(
{ y = t[1], m = t[2], d = t[3] },
{ how }
)
end
\stopluacode
You mean the () around the split? weird. Anyway, there's also a time
splitter (dedicated to Alan who needed one):
print(os.time(utilities.parsers.totime("2019-03-05 12:12:12")))
print(os.time(utilities.parsers.totime("2019/03/05 12:12:12")))
print(os.time(utilities.parsers.totime("05-03-2019 12:12:12")))
print(os.time(utilities.parsers.totime("05/03/2019 12:12:12")))
inspect(utilities.parsers.totime("2019-03-05 12:12:12"))
inspect(utilities.parsers.totime("2019/03/05 12:12:12"))

mark when the word is spilt at the end of line
Yes, that is wat it is supposed to do.
Also I would like to know whats the difference in \date and parameter
date in \installlanguage? In parameter date in \installlanguage are
curly backets,
That is just a syntax trick to solve a problem with embedded commas.
In context, "key=value" and "key={value}" are equivalent, except
that the second form allows embedded commas.
it's just some mask for command \date? Or those two
are entirely different?
The \setuplanguage parameter provides a formatting template for \date.

Re: [NTG-context] Out of Date? Up to Date?
David Arnold wrote: All, If I read: http://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/mfonts.pdf How up to date or out of date is the information in this manual? Hi David, It looks like it is still quite up-to-date, but some of the examples it gives may no longer be the very best and latest way of doing things, and possibly there are some new developments that do not get as much attention as desired (like texfont, and the issues arising from font map files). Overall, the document appears accurate, though. An important thing to remember is this: ConTeXt does not share font metric conventions with LaTeX. (at one point it started doing so, like supporting the Karl Berry naming scheme and the psnfss style font family names, but that has since been abandoned). Another important thing is that it also does not share font map files with LaTeX and, specifically, ConTeXt does not make pdfetex read pdftex.map. (this is at the root of a great many problems reported by users only familiar with nfss) The preferred format for metric files in ConTeXt is //-.tfm for metrics and --.map for the mapping files. is usually derived from the font source (afm or ttf), is a 'controlled' list, and are user-supplied (at install time). There are ways to trick ConTeXt into using different conventions, but if you do that you are likely to run into trouble (as you have experienced).

There was a bug with the \date macro which I had reported a few days
ago.
This appears to be related to that. Should be fixed in the next beta.
I have a chicken-egg issue to solve (probebly in the end have to drop
something for consistency deep down)
can you use for now:
\date[d=21,m=2,y=2219] [month,{ },D,{, },year]
\date[d=22,m=12,y=2119][month,{ },D,{, },year]

[NTG-context] sections, subsections, indenting, startnarrower, alignment
Hi again ntg-context.
I have been working on my own CV/Resume module. Up until now I've just
been asking about specific bits of the implementation of this thing I
want to do, but perhaps that was a mistake as it hasn't really helped
progress much, so:
What I am trying to achieve is to define some three-argument command
to give a section/subject header and a date, and then a block of text.
The header and date should be on the same line, but aligned in either
direction (subject aligned left, date aligned right)
This block of text underneath it should be indented and able to
include an instance of the same command. Let me try to explain the
desired output in a little monospaced text diagram..
|(Subject)___(Date)|
|__(Subsubject)__(Date)|
|texttexttexttexttexttexttexttext__|
|textmoretextmoretextmoretexttext__|
|__(Subsubject)__(Date)|
|texttexttexttexttexttextexttext___|
|textmoretextmoretextmoretexttext__|
The "subject" and "subsubject" parts don't need to literally use
"\subject" , for example I also tried to use "\start(description){..."
for this purpose as well but that failed equally. Just something that
works reasonably as a section header.
I promise I have looked in the archives before asking :) for example
http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg2.html
http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg37664.html
http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg11337.html
http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context@ntg.nl/msg17276.html
And here is an example of something I was playing with...

In the second and later call of \Changes you are in the table (\halign

inside a group. Since \getparameters expands to local assignments, the
contents is forgotten outside this cell.
Try \getgparameters

Essentially, variables in ConTeXt has a nice set key which can be made to
trigger anything when the variables are set. So you can give it a setup to do
whatever you want by just saying
\setvariables[assignments][...]
wherever in the document you desire. See here for an example [there is also a
'reset' key]:
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Setups
[Since you said 'framed assignment box' you can enable the frames of the cell
you want, and change formatting as needed]

no, because the context script also does some cleanup and checking (like

Thanks, but that’s not the same. Not only because I get „2015-1-20“ and not
„2015-01-20“.
Is there a way to get „everything“ expanded within \settaggedmetadata ?

Ok, that means we have no influence on files names at all?

Ok, would have been nice. Will write a wrapper script for my use case.

Re: [NTG-context] Include 'urldate' in *.bst (Url citations with last checked date)
The new mkiv bibliography module does not use *.bst files at all.
We can handle access date but there needs to be some sort of
specification. I believe that the APA style only specifies "Retrieved
from". I can work something in to use the fields "lastchecked" and/or
"urldate".

You forgot the backslash in front of your values.
It’s also bad style to misuse the \title command for your document title
because \title is only the unnumbered version of \chapter, nothing else.
Another way to create your document title is the following code:
\setupcolors [state=start]
\definecolor [colorone][r=0.625,g=0,b=0] %dark red
\definecolor [colortwo][b=0.625,g=0,r=0] %dark blue
\startsetups examtitle
\startframedtext
[
width=broad,
frame=off,
align=middle,
foregroundcolor=colortwo,
background=shadow,
]
{\definedfont[RegularSlanted sa 2.5]\getvariable{exam}{title}}
\blank
\getvariable{exam}{course}
\stopframedtext
\blank[big]
\startcolor[colortwo]
\doifelsevariable{exam}{date}{\expanded{\date[\getvariable{exam}{date}]}}{\currentdate}
\hfill
Start: \getvariable{exam}{start}
\space
Stop: \getvariable{exam}{stop}

[NTG-context] Using variables and macros for styling of section title and line in table of contents
Dear list
I have a document with section headings which include a title, date and
reference spread over two lines with different font style and
justification, plus a slightly different text for the table of contents.
So that I can alter the styling of the section headings without having to
recode each \startsection command, I have used variables and a macro
command for the style.
This works for section 'title' and 'marking', but not for the 'list'
attribute.
The minimal working example below shows what I'm trying to do.
Best wishes and many thanks in advance.

I'm processing this with Mark II. The problems are that
(1) The literal 'Examcourse' is typeset;
(2) Today's date is typset, not the one entered in the interface;
(3) The start and stop times are typeset as literals 'Examstart' &
'Examstop'
You need to use \Exam... to access the values.

This will process the name in bold and the date in italic. But I'm sure

[NTG-context] Include 'urldate' in *.bst (Url citations with last checked date)
Hi,
for a document I'm currently writing I need to cite some online
resources including their last accessed date. Adding
\insertbiburl[..] to a citation style does work fine to get the urls
printed.
However, the *.bst styles only check for 'lastchecked' tag for a last
accessed date. I don't know if there's any standard way for specifying
the date but 'lastchecked' and 'urldate' seem to be two commonly used
variants (as far as a quick web search tells - I'm on Zotero which also
uses the last mentioned type).
To get this temporary working for me I replaced the plain 'lastcheck'
output in *.bst with:
..
lastchecked empty$
{"" "\lastchecked" urldate do.out}
{"" "\lastchecked" lastchecked do.out} if$
..
and added urldate to the list of known tags.
Are there any chances to get this changed in the 'official' version (if
there are no other points against this I don't see right now :))?
Best regards,
Jens

I changed the way how section and layer layouts defined, the current version of
the module provides
the new command \definelettersectionalternative and
\defineletterlayeralternative. For backwards
compatibility I still provide the old \defineletterlement command but there was
a bug when
the command is used to create layouts for a section, a new version which fixes

[NTG-context] Datenumber
LaTeX has a package called datenumber.

I use this package to create a yearly lesson schedule and various other similiar things. However, I have spent a considerable amount of time trying to find the same functionality in ConTeXt with no avail.

I tried some different dates and the number is indeed typed twice every time in
french. I think this problem appears recently because it was not the case with
"ConTeXt - 2011.05.18 22:26" "LuaTeX-0.70.1".
I still think it’s a bug because it’s not expected to have the day number
typed twice when one call \date (in "lang-def.mkiv", the date format is
declared as "\c!date={\v!day+,\v!space,\v!month,\v!space,\v!year" for french).

I checked my "core-con.lua" file and there is not the context("%s", ...)
command in the currentdate function.
Am I missing something ?

Re: [NTG-context] High level user macro (howto?)

Hello Taco,
thank you for your 'quickstart'!
I've just tried to apply \getparameters to the \Changes macro on the Wiki
(http://contextgarden.net/Changes). But there is a problem and any help
would be nice.
Here is the new macro:
\def\Changes#1[#2]{%
\getparameters[CH][#2]% Auteur, Modif, Labels, Date
\ifnum\RevC=0 \BigTitle \vskip0.5ex \Vfil \startChanges \fi
\global\advance\RevC by 1 \VL \the\RevC \VL \CHDate \VL \CHModif \VL
XXX%\In[\CHLabels,\relax] % does not work, but not so important for now
\VL \CHAuteur \VL\AR\HL}
And later on, the usage of the macro:
\Changes[Date=1/2/2004,Modif=First version,Auteur=Peter]
\Changes[Date=3/4/2004,Modif=Some modifications,Lables={sec:S1,sec:S2},
Auteur=Peter Münster]
\Changes[Date=5/6/2004,Modif=Some other modifications,Lables={sec:S2},
Auteur=Peter]
The problem:
the parameter values are not updated in the two last calls of the macro.
Regards, Peter

Brilliant, that's exactly what I want. I didn't expect the date »hidden« in the

Re: [NTG-context] Issue with the latest beta of context standalone
Hi Hans,
I can confirm that with version 2019.01.25 20:06, when the main language is set
to fr, the \date command does not work correctly.
However setting
\mainlanguage[en]
gives the correct behavior of \date, in english, in the example file sent by
Fabrice.
Also this minimal example gives a wrong date:
\mainlanguage[fr]
\starttext
\currentdate
\stoptext
gives 27 mars 2019 (with two months in advance… :-)
\mainlanguage[en]
or any other language, gives the same error (March 27, 2019).

Re: [NTG-context] Short weekday option for date command
Thank you Hans and Wolfgang,
I have updated the wiki (https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/date) with
the new dayshort/daylong options, but I seem to get an empty value for
every day after day 7, see example:
\starttext
\date[d=7,m=4,y=2008][{\dayshort\normalday},{,~},day,~,month,~,year] \par
\date[d=8,m=4,y=2008][{\dayshort\normalday},{,~},day,~,month,~,year]
\stoptext
This gives me (note "sun" is missing in the second line):
sat, 7 April 2008
, 8 April 2008
Am I using the options correctly?
Still using luatex and not luametatex.

SimpleSlide is very useful for novice users so I do use it.
I'm afraid these might be known but I encountered few problems.
When we use a style BigNumber or Embossed, an error occured:

I modified s-simpleslides-BigNumber.tex as follows:
comment out from line #87 to #99
% \beginOLDTEX
...
% \endLUATEX
except line #98
\definefontsynonym [BigNumberFont] [name:texgyreherosbold]
then it seems to work fine. But I suspect unconditional
definition is not good so I'd like to know the correct fix.
Another problem is with style Split. Browsing simpleslides.pdf,
date, author, title and page number would be displayed on each
slide but we can't see them in fact except page number.
It seems, e.g. the following in s-simpleslides-Split.tex
fails to get the "date".
draw

I think it is very helpful to see date, title on a slide

Thanks in advance.

There was a bug with the \date macro which I had reported a few days ago.

Unfortunately this does not work as I need. Only the "1" should be
converted to 1er, not the other numbers.
French is a bit special:
You say "le premier novembre" but not "le un novembre".
You say "le deux novembre" but not "le deuxième novembre".
According to https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/date:
"The name suffixes indicate number conversions. Any conversion, either
built-in or defined by \defineconversion, can be used there."
But it does not seem to work...

I am experimenting with the \currentdate command. I am finding that
\currentdate [weekday,{,~},month,day+,{,~},year]
which should work according to the Wiki, produces:
Thursday, Augustday+, 2013
This command:
\currentdate [weekday,{,~},month,day,{,~},year]
works as expected. I also tried
\date [][weekday,{,~},month,day+,{,~},year]
but that produced the same result as above.
I have a recent stable release of the standalone ConTeXt package from
the Garden. Is there a new way to format a date with an ordinal
indicator (-st, -nd, -rd, -th), or is that just not working at the
moment? Please advise.

You can’t use \date (or any other unexpandable command) in an expandable context.

This is fixed, there module produced a unwanted space at the begin of the
reference line which is now gone.

You can look at the predefined arguments in the old manual which is available
online: https://bitbucket.org/wolfs/correspondence/downloads.

These are available (sort of)
\currentdate[day,--,{\monthshort\normalmonth},--,year] % lowercase
or
\currentdate[day,--,{\MONTHSHORT\normalmonth},--,year] % uppercase

[NTG-context] setup for paragraph styles
Hello,
I'd like to kwnow the commands I should use in ConTeXt to define styles
for paragraphs of text that are not headers/titles nor normal text.
With titles I know I must use:
\definehead[MyTitle][title]
\setuphead[MyTitle][...]
What should I use for texts like subtitles, dates of letters,
signatures? They are "paragraphs" often made by a few words, with a
different alignment, margins, style and vertical space above and below.
For a long quote I've seen that I can use:
\definedelimitedtext[MySpecialText]
\setupdelimitedtext[MySpecialText]
Are those the right commands for my purpose in ConTeXt?
In particular, I'm typesetting XHTML, where all those elements are , , and so
on.
An example taken from my xml environment:
...
\startxmlsetups xml:myenv
\xmlsetsetup{\xmldocument}{*}{-}
\xmlsetsetup{\xmldocument}{html|body|h3|p|i}{xml:*}
...
\xmlsetsetup{\xmldocument}{p[@class='letter-date']}{xml:p:letter-date}
...
\stopxmlsetups
...
\startxmlsetups xml:p:letter-date
\page[no]\rightaligned{\noindent\xmlflush{#1}}\par\page[no]
\stopxmlsetups
...
Is that the right way or is it better to define and setup a style like
this?
\define_???_[LetterDate]
\setup_???_[LetterDate][
before=...,
after=...,
...,
]
and use it like this:
\startxmlsetups xml:p:letter-date
\startLetterDate \xmlflush{#1} \stopLetterDate
\stopxmlsetups
And if it's better like that, what should I write instead of _???_ ?
Thanks,
Massi
