Re: [NTG-context] unwanted space after \in

[Alan Bowen]

Thanks, Aditya. Using \goto works better.

I have been abusing \reference for some time now, mainly to mark the end of
a file in order to generate page numbers: E.g., \reference[EOF]{} just
before \stoptext or \stopcomponent with \at[EOF]. This has worked for
getting the page range of a chapter or paper. Is there a better way to do
this?

I am not sure if I consider this a bug. In a typical use case, \reference 
will have a value, e.g., \reference[abc]{whatever}. In that case, if you 
use \in{Text}[abc], there should be a non-breakable space between "Text" 
and "whatever". You appear to be abusing the reference system by giving an 
empty reference.


I think that usin \goto is better in this case rather than adding a check 
to \in for an atypical use case.

Alan,

I’m not sure I get what is the issue:

    \starttext
    \chapter[abc]{Chapter}

    \reference[bca]{}

    \page
    \in{in reference}[abc],

    \in{in reference}[bca],

    \at{at reference, p.}[abc],

    \goto{goto reference}[abc],

    \stoptext

\in behaves as \at in terms of blank spaces in the first case.

I guess that the problem there is that there is no reference to
solve in
the second case.

But I may be missing your point.

Pablo

Hi, Pablo—I should have been clearer. The issue is the space that \in
inserts before the final comma. At that’s what I get using the latest
standalone beta. (Do you see it?)

[NTG-context] unwanted space after \in

Unlike \goto and \at, \in seems to insert an unwanted space before any text
that follows.

MWE—

\page
 Text ,

\in{Text}[abc],

\at{Text, p.}[abc],

\goto{Text}[abc],
\stoptext
