Indeed, \unit{} should allow (and presently does not) K, C, etc.

Re: [NTG-context] How to extend an existing macro to take optional parameters?
Designating "optional" parameters within [...] is a LaTeX notion.
ConTeXt handles parameters differently.

Indeed, I would like to make NONE of them case insensitive. But currently, when
I register an upper case key (C=coulomb) it messes up the lower case prefix
(“cm" gets typeset as C•m). I was expecting the parser to distinguish between
the “C” and “c”, but it doesn’t. Is that intended?

I have an existing macro that I'd like to extend.
The current definition is \define[3]\mycommand{...} which I'd like to extend to
take an optional 4th parameter plus an optional setup parameter.
Thus I currently invoke it as:
\mycommand{aa}{bb}{cc}
and I'd like to be able to extend it so that any of the following can be used:
\mycommand{aa}{bb}{cc}
\mycommand{aa}{bb}{cc}{dd}
\mycommand{aa}{bb}{cc}{dd}[ee]
or
\mycommand[ee]{aa}{bb}{cc}{dd} % if this is more the ConTeXt way
where {dd} is the optional extra parameter and, if it is present, then [ee] can
also be optionally added (because it controls how {dd} is printed).
If it helps, the actual body of the macro can easily be a call to Lua so it's
fine if the function takes 5 params where 4 and 5 can be nil or empty strings.
I've trawled through syst-aux.mkiv but it only covers optional numbers of [ ]
or { } but not combinations of both (which given the vast numbers of
combinations is perhaps not surprising!). Have I missed something obvious that
would help me?
So, four optional with mandate {} plus a fallback to an optional []
\starttext
\tolerant\def\mycommand#=#=#=#=#:[#5]%
{\ifparameter#1\or(1:#1)\fi
\ifparameter#2\or(2:#2)\fi
\ifparameter#3\or(3:#3)\fi
\ifparameter#4\or(4:#4)\fi
\ifparameter#5\or[5:#5]\fi}
\startbuffer
\mycommand{aa}{bb}{cc}
\mycommand{aa}{bb}{cc}{dd}
\mycommand{aa}{bb}{cc}{dd}[ee]
\mycommand{aa}{bb}{cc}
\mycommand{aa}{bb}{cc}{dd}
\mycommand{aa}{bb}{cc}{dd}[ee]
\stopbuffer
\typebuffer
\startlines \getbuffer \stoplines
\stoptext
I'm not saying that it's the best solution, you can add \protected in
front of the \def if needed.

Indeed, thanks to you I see that in ConTeXt there exist plenty of solutions for

Hi Otared
I think what doesn’t work is the dotless i as combining character for i
+ diacritical mark.
It seems that standard i may combine fine:
\setupinteractionscreen[option=max]
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=1ex]
%\i
%\'{\i}
%\^{\i}
\'{i}
\^{i}
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
And \i outputs a dotless i.
Just in case it helps,
Pablo

[NTG-context] extra lines in PDF annotations
Dear list,
using current latest from 2023.03.10 12:18, I have this XML sample:
And the following environment:
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\startxmlsetups xml:text
\xmlsetsetup{\xmldocument}
{pre}
{xml:copy:html}
\stopxmlsetups
\xmlregistersetup{xml:text}
\startxmlsetups xml:copy:html
\xmltobuffer{#1}{.}{text}
\comment[location=inmargin,buffer=text]{}
\attachment[method=hidden, name=attach.xml, buffer=text]
\null
\stopxmlsetups
If I save the XML file with Windows EOL chars (CR LF), I get extra blank
lines in the PDF annotation.
Everything is fine, if XML has Unix line endings (LF char).
Attachment contains the proper line ending in each case.
Could anyone confirm what appears to be a tricky issue?
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo
