Hi,
is it possible to define a block, where lines are automatically formatted

For example:

Is this possible? And how?
If you mean input lines, then yes. But if you mean output lines, then I
don't know. It seems a well-defined task, but a hard task judging by how
the line-breaking algorithm is described by Knuth. I'll leave that question
to experts.
Here's a way to process the input lines. If there's a counter that counts
the line number, there would be another way; but I couldn't find out that
there was a counter. There may be better ways anyway.
\define\FirstLine{\let\myLine\SecondLine\sc}
\define\SecondLine{\let\myLine\OtherLine\bf}
\define\OtherLine{\tf}
\definelines[doMyLines][command=\myLine]
\def\startMyLines{\let\myLine\FirstLine\startdoMyLines}
\def\stopMyLines{\stopdoMyLines}
As I said that works, but while trying to understand this, I found that the
documentation for \definelines doesn't mention the command= option. On the
other hand it does mention align= and this doesn't work. Neither does
\setuplines.
I always get undefined control sequence.
\definelines[doFirstBoldRight][command=\myLine]
\setupdoFirstBoldRight[align=flushleft]
\setuplines[doFirstBoldRight][…]
OR
\definelines[doFirstBoldRight][align=flushleft,command=\myLine]
gives the same error.
Do you have any idea what I am doing wrong?
Make a complete example.
BTW: I suggest to use my Lua example from the other thread.

I thought I could get away without it, because it's practically the
answer to my question, just with alignment.
For some reason, now that I started from scratch to show the example, it
works.
\define\FirstLine{\let\myLine\SecondLine\sc}
\define\SecondLine{\let\myLine\OtherLine\bf}
\define\OtherLine{\tf}
% this align here didn't work
\definelines[doMyLines][align=flushright,command=\myLine]
% and this setup doesn't
%\setupdoMyLines[align=flushright]
\def\startMyLines{\let\myLine\FirstLine\startdoMyLines}
\def\stopMyLines{\stopdoMyLines}
\definelines[right][align=flushright]
% I get an error here, too.
%\setupright[align=flushright]
\starttext
\startright
test
\stopright
\startMyLines
First line in caps,
Second in bold,
Others normal.
Others normal.
Others normal.
\stopMyLines
\stoptext

When I looked at it first, it was in the middle of the night. And it
looked a bit over the moon for me. Now I think I can grab it, and it
looks _very_ powerfull.
Thank you.

I figured it out from the source, spac-lin.mkiv. One might see there that the
align key does not seem to be processed; it s a relic from a previous version
of ConTeXt, I suppose. Many macros have a command key, which usually seems
to be a method for customizing the basic unit, in this case a line. (The
source is written in a certain style that makes it possible often to figure
things out, even when the wiki is not up-to-date. I say possible but not
always easy. And there's always this maillist.)
