Thanks for the quick response.
I have some questions about your code, because it does not fullfill all
my wishes.
The command \inmargin now correctly puts its text on the correct side on
even and odd pages. But i would like to have the same behaviour for the
figures too. In a longer script, TeX should know, if the margin image
has to be placed left or right. So 'inright' or 'inleft' is not an
option. And 'margin' does not work ... (the image is placed mostly
outside the page).
In your code, the long image on the second page does not start in the
left margin, as desired.

[NTG-context] How to \processcommalist inside another commalist?
Hello,
I tried to print out primes (well, I tried to do something else, but I
needed a more illustrative example), but it seems that my approach was
too naive:
\def\arePrime[#1]{%
\bgroup
\getparameters[Prime][p=,#1]
\def\printPrime##1{##1 is prime.\crlf}
\processcommalist[\Primep]\printPrime
\egroup}
\starttext
\arePrime[p={2,3,5}]
\stoptext
I expected something like
2 is prime.
3 is prime.
5 is prime.
But I got
2,3,5 is prime.
Any suggestions or hints about how to change the macro to produce the
desired result (using the same input)?
Thank you a lot,
Mojca

Re: [NTG-context] Bold rules with TABLE
On 8/17/06, Fredrik Sjunnesson wrote: Hi, As this is my first mail to the list I'd like to start by thanking Hans and all other ConTeXt contributors. I stumbled upon ConTeXt just recently and I have fallen in love badly. :) Now to my question. Is it possible to control the rule thickness of a specific frames with TABLE, i.e. something like \setupTABLE[row][1][bottomframe=1pt] \setupTABLE[column][1][leftframe=2pt] If not, I'd guess it could be possible to fake this by inserting extra rows and columns with zero height and width, respectively, and use the rulethickness parameter to change the thickness of all their frames. Since this approach would add extra complexity to the table definitions I hope that you have better solutions. Unless I have missed something (I would be glad if I would), there is no support for that yet. You could either do: \setupTABLE[row][1][frame=off,bottomframe=on,rulethickness=1pt] or \setupTABLE[column][1][leftframe=on,rulethickness=2pt] but none of that is what you really want. Table building macros depend highly on \framed. And there are at least two feature requests I know of that have been around for quite some time now: 1. Support for setting different leftoffset/rightoffset/topoffset/bottomoffset (natural tables look ugly to me just because they have too little left/rightoofset and too big top/bottomoffset) Framedcontent supports that already, but cannot be used as a replacement in tables. 2. Support for different line widths (or colors or whatever) for left/right/top/bottom line. Some special care should be taken on borders of course. There is a workaround for your problem though: you can draw a frame in metapost (where you can draw arbitrary lines around the cell) and then use that frame as a background for the cells, but that's an extremely lengthy and cumbersome solution for such a standard and well-defined need. I would vote for both of the features if Hans or someone else would manage to implement them. One of the problems might be that \framed is used very often and it is not desireble to have too much overhelm in it, but I would really be very happy if functionality like that would be made available for the usage in tables.

Maybe you could play only with the parameter count. The limitation is that
an empty second argument is required when only options need to be passed.
