Re: [NTG-context] other markup to ConTeXt (was: simplefonts or Typecripts)
This is very similar to a project in which I am planning to engage in the near future. Output to both HTML and PDF utilizing a simple markup seems to be a "killer feature" that at least some of us are looking for. Cross-media publishing, however, is never painless. It's like a Holy Grail. Pandoc makes me want to either learn Haskell or implement my own markup with a focus towards multiple output formats and typesetting in general (most markups seem to be focused on developer workflows). Anyway, a fruitful space for ConTeXt, thanks to its strive for configurability.

Hi John,
it's a link to the same page:
\setupinteraction[state=start, color=black, contrastcolor=black]

This is not really a bug. Streams in mkii are an experiment and will not be

Hi Wolfgang,
you don't have to look any further, this is exactly what I was looking
