Here's what I've got so far in ConTeXt (and it gets me close):
\setupheads[sectionnumber=no]
\setuphead[chapter][textcommand=\inmargin,style=\tfa,before=\nowhitespace,after=\nowhitespace]
\setuphead[section][textcommand=\inmargin,style=\tfa,before=\nowhitespace,after=\nowhitespace]
\setuphead[subsection][textcommand=\inmargin,style=\scx,before=\nowhitespace,after=\nowhitespace]
This places the chapter/section/subsection titles in the margin alright,
but it is still above the text it refers to. How do I get it alongside?
The head is always at least one line high, even if it is in the margin.
Something as simple as this may be sufficient for you needs:
\setuphead
[section]
[textcommand=\inmargin,
style=\tfa,
before=\nowhitespace,
after={\kern -12pt}]
Good luck, Taco

[NTG-context] Chapter/section text inmargin

[NTG-context] Typescripts tutorials?
Hello -- I'm getting ready to get some new fonts working and I'm trying to figure out typescripts. Specifically, I'm confused about the syntax of the \starttypescript [][][] statements. Is there an explanation of these files in non-code (ie, English)? jason ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context

Is (T)IPA support about more than using some phonetic chars? Please enlighten me. AFAICT, there are: - 2 new font encodings needed (T3 and T3S), with associated named characters - a set of font definitions - unicode tables (for utf input) need extension - there are some macros in IPA for special input That's about it for the basic TIPA font support, I guess. For proper linguistic work, you need a large set of extra macros, but those are not in the LaTeX tipa.sty either. Greetings, Taco ___ ntg-context mailing list ntg-context@ntg.nl http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context I've done some work with tipa under LaTeX as a beginning linguistics student, though I didn't get into the guts at the time. This threaed gets me thinking: how far away from proper is the tipa package under LaTeX? How much work is a proper implementation likely to be? I'm in some ways a beginner under the hood, but I'm pretty motivated to get proper support in place. Taco, your list above includes some stuff I'm unfamiliar with (T3 encoding, macros for IPA input), so I don't know how extensive the work is likely to be. Which would be easier: scrap and re-write or adapt? -- Jason Knight Systems-Analyst-at-large They fix 'em, I break 'em.

[NTG-context] colorizing item numbers
I'm new to ConTeXt and puzzling over a text I'm trying to set a text
where item numbers (or letters, or symbols for that matter) need to be
either color or grayscale. Here's what I'm thinking, though, obviously
the code doesn't work:
\startitemize[\color[darkred]{n}, packed, inmargin]
.
.
.
\stopitemize
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Re: [NTG-context] colorizing item numbers
Thanks for the pointer. The color option was not one I found in the
manual, and my combing through the source code wasn't as fruitful as I
woulda hoped.
