Re: [NTG-context] typebuffer different from typefile

2016-04-24 Thread Meer, Hans van der 
The point is not that I am without options for a practical solution here. 
My point is that the difference between \typebuffer and \typefile breaks the 
strict and so much appreciated congruence between like macro calls.
Therefore my post must rather be seen as a plea to the maintainer(s) of these 
to consider a change in the given direction.

Hi Hans,

I wonder whether any of these two options may help you:

\setuptyping[buffer][style=\ttx]
\startbuffer[test]
content of buffer
\stopbuffer
\starttext
\typebuffer[test][style=\ss\red]
\typefile[style=\ttx\blue]{test.txt}
\stoptext

Again, just in case it might help,

Pablo

[NTG-context] typebuffer different from typefile

2016-04-24 Thread dr. Hans van der Meer 
Why is there a difference in syntax between typing buffers and typing files?
For files enclosure in {} for buffers in [], for files optional parameters, for 
buffers not.
Is it possible to make the syntax of these two the same, because their usage 
parallels each other?

Example code:

\startbuffer[test]
content of buffer
\stopbuffer
\starttext
\typebuffer[test]
\typefile[style=\ttx]{test.txt}
\stoptext
